Territories
To conquer a territory, you must control every city and port in that territory. If it has no ports or cities, you need to control every hex instead.
If more than one major power from the same side controls ports and cities in a territory, the major power with the greatest influence is the conqueror. Use this priority to determine who has the greatest influence:
1. Whoever controls the most ports and cities in the territory.
2. Whoever has the highest garrison value (see 13.1) in the territory.
3. Whoever occupied the territory’s last city or port.
You also conquer a territory if you control every port and coastal city in every sea area the territory has a coastal hex in.
When you conquer a territory, control of every enemy controlled hex there not occupied by an enemy land unit passes to your major power
