What random events bring Special Monsters to attack a province? I can't think of any.

Are you suggesting that the reason why Ghost Riders don't stay around after taking a province is that their nation normally isn't in the game? If 23 and 24 were present and healthy, then would a victorious Ghost Riders army remain in play, and potentially even march over to attack the player who summoned it?
That definitely will not work like you think. I'm sorry I can't think of a way to help you, I only know how to farsummon independents that leave after combat. You can use farsummon to summon troops that ARE part of your nation, and they WILL stay.

Yeah, that's what I was planning to do with a hidden nation--I wasn't planning to identify the hidden nation with Special Monsters; it'd be an ordinary nation. The idea of warping Special Monsters was just an interesting tangent.
