Default Re: Suggestion: Raising taxes: only in turn 2+ after conquering

I am curious and have a question/thought on a somewhat related issue.

We know that battles cause unrest, and foreign dominion in your provinces also cause unrest. But if you "liberate" a province under your dominion, why couldn't there not be a one-time reduction in unrest? Vice versa, conquering of foreign dominion-controlled province, even if no battle occured, should incur extra unrest/resentment against the "invasion". This could already be in, but I'm not sure.

Anyway, if this is the case, coupling with the getting money at start of turn idea, this would potential benefit the previous owner. Not only do they get 200% income instead of the sneak foreign scouts, but unrest caused by the high tax may possibly be alleviated to some extent by the "liberation".

Of course, this won't stop scout sneak attacks, which are more useful at disrupt economy, destroy temples, etc. But this may reduce this tax rampage situation people are describing (personally I play SP only, so don't know how serious this is for MP)

Just some a stray thought.
