Best way to deal with Expansion Penalty?

I am the #1 player in my game, in terms of VP, and I am starting to feel the effects of the expansion penalty, which is up to -22 now. What is the best way to deal with this? The game will probably last at least 5 more days.

Time when you take capitals so you can get the most out of them. It’s smart to leave some small countries open, so you can take their capital. You can also surround their capital with arty and take all their other land, constantly wiping out any new unit until you finally decide to take the city.

Yep. I try to take only one capital a day, and I try to time the taking of a capital to be at the end of the day after I've taken lots of territory. It might be possible to keep going like this until the end of the game, keeping your provinces high enough in morale that they never revolt.

Rapidly take capitals
Being a patriot is not something I should be ashamed of.

Keep an armoured car/motorised infantry at the back to capture revolted provinces

Looking for improvement.
