## **Info**

Every Faction has an Autonomy Level, this shows people what factions are on what level.

To Increase Autonomy it will Cost you Influence, the cost rises the closer you get to independence. You can also gain independence by participating in wars of your overlord as often as possible. Each war would count as half of an influence point. Although this only works if the overlord allows you to join their wars.

* Integrated Puppet -> Colony costs: **4 I.P**
* Colony -> Puppet costs: **6 I.P**
* Puppet -> Dominion costs: **8 I.P**

* Dominion -> Independent costs: **10 I.P**

Note: your overlord has the Casus belli on all vassals *"Lower Autonomy"* where the overlord can forcefully lower you.

Custom Factions are automatically a Colony in autonomy.
