Default Re: Order Bug in 2.11

Think I have mentioned this before ... sometimes provinces link up with the nearest number, not the neighbouring provinces on the map.

I have savegames where my dominions pops up 4 hops away in a sea province, with strong enemy dominion between. There's no way I could have got any dominion there - besides having a province with "neighbouring" number.

At the very start of the game this could mean the "undecided" dominion of unclaimed provinces "seeps" into your homeland, tilting the scales towards "0" before your pretender/temples/prophet effects kick in. (what was the order of events concerning dominion?)
