Default Re: Protectorates and trade/resupply?

"protectorate and submissive(?)... those two treaties,
the weaker one pays the powerhouse a duty for their protection (when done right). there is trade going on with those, but it is one sided."

I think with these treaties it isn't trade. It's tarrif.

The difference is trade is generated for free, tarrif you have to pay for. The effect on the dominant end is the same, but the subjagated empire looses resources for being in this treaty.
