Default Re: Early Expansion Question

So while we're talking early expansion, what is your expansion technique? I'm a radial expander, taking every nation that borders your capital first, so you can get more resources. There's also a bonus for weak nations when two nations that border your capital also border each other (making a triangle). You can attack from your capital and your newest conquest at the same time, then combine forces and send the commander back to the capital.

Anyway, the downside is that towards the end of the expansion phase you're walking to the front rather than taking provinces. Is there a consensus on what is the most efficient technique?
