Thanks for all the info. I always thought that a neighboring fort took a (relatively small) percentage of the resources and one fort could thus never reduce a province to zero resources (there is only one fort - the starting one - next to the province).

I think I will build a fort in the province if that helps. Does that just require a neighbor province with, e.g. 10+ resources and no fort in it? A bit expensive, but with the investment of the lab and the cool indy that would be available...
