That tends to zero out the population very nicely.
No, no, NO! You have to leave a couple hundred. That way, the province is worthless to anyone else, but YOU can still make ghouls in it with 1-unholy indy priests.

Also, did you know you can double your empire's income in any province that has gold sites as Ermor by cranking those taxes? The undead always pay their bills in full.
SHHHH!!!! /smack
