Gamey Options

There are several "gamey" ways to reduce infamy:

  • A great power can sphere Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (3) Colombia, build The Panama Canal which annexes a single province, and release Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (4) Panama as a vassal
  • A formable country can release a nation in the same culture group just before it forms the nation and annexing it again. E.g. Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (5) Sweden can release Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (6) Norway and Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (7) Jan Mayen just before it forms Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (8) Scandinavia; Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (9) Prussia can release Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (10) Danzig before forming the Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (11) North German Federation; NGF can remove an insane amount of infamy while forming Germany. It is however at the cost of 5 prestige per nation released.
  • Germany and Italy can release puppets to reduce the infamy. If their puppets are in their own sphere(for example, Lucca in Italian sphere) than the event will make the formable countries annex them free. This is unlimited, but at the cost of 5 prestige.
  • Since demand concession casus belli will cost less than 5 infamy (unless the justification is discovered on day 1), it is beneficial to annex a province with foreign cores and release said nation as a puppet. For example, annexing provinces from Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (12) Oman and releasing Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (13) Zanzibar, Annexing Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (14) Zulu and releasing Zulu and Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (15) Natalia, Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (16) Panjab's province Kashmircan release two countries, Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (17) Kashmir and Infamy - Victoria 2 Wiki (18) Ladakh.
  • If one gets an event that gives a free casus belli, one can take a province with a releasable nation and release it.
