Core Province

I recently captured an enemy province. When I was looking at it's stats, I noticed that it was a core province, but of Spain, who I had taken it from. It only produces 25% of the resources it should produce. Does this mean that no matter what happens to it(excluding upgrades) or its country, will it always produce just 25%? The same thing happens with Albania, even though that is no longer a country, it is in my pocket.

There are differences between the Provinces and their connection to you.

Example:

"Grenoble" is a province of mine after capturing it from france. So at the beginning it was part of France and now it is under my control. It will just produce 25%. Cause of the people living there feel connected to France and not to me cause of the historybackground. The province is categorized as core province. When France would capture it back from me the production in the province will be on 100% output again.

"Sfax" in the south is a normal province without a connection as beeing a core province of a selected countrie. Also we just have a production of 25% maximum ressources output but all countries will just get these 25% cause of it beeing a "colony" of france or the owner at the moment.

To give you a clear answer after all:

Yes every province which is not categorized as core province of your countrie will give you just 25% of its production. This makes it much more harder to protect your new owned province against enemys when you grow to fast or so.

Alright, thanks.

Yes, but only on the lower (25%) level.

This balancing prevents countries from growing their production too fast by grabbing land.

It is now a equally valid strategy to improve your own core province, invest in technology and enter the war later.

In Supremacy and 30 Kingdoms expanding quickly was more or less the only winning strategy.

At least that's the plan. We have to see how it works out.

Just to prevent irritations - infrastructure still improves output in core-provinces and normal provinces right?

Yes.
