Is this a one-time influence bonus at the start of the game (in which case it's probably not a big deal over the course of the campaign), or does the AI continue to generate extra influence?

<t> Greetings all; I just bought this game and have been finding it quite addictive thus far. I'm also messing around with the editor to try and create historical 3-4 month campaigns, such as the Trenton campaign or Howe's Philadelphia campaign so the player can focus on just that part of the map ...
