    Any province with a port is valuable to me for the potential income in sea trade. They start out crappy, but they can make a lot of money in the long run. A few have decent resources too, like that silver deposit on Cagliari.

    As mentioned above, if you have a strong navy then they're easier to hold onto. I never plan for an expansion strategy that involves working in the central Med area, without a navy to back it up.

    ROFLMAO Well Enemy factions invading in my latest "1st post patch" is no problem at all. The pirates own the seas! I counted 6 fleets lined up to take their turn blockaiding my ports! I can't build anything to confront them either. I tried a little end run from Portegal to Bordoux. Twice attacked and defeated by pirates just form one province away. It may just be this campaign or just Portugal or who knows but unless I win the lato I won't have a navy any time soon to challenge them...and I know there are more lurking about in the English channel. The med may not be as infested YET
