When you inherit a nation, you get cores on any province they had in your culture group. Unless you're in the HRE, then you get cores no matter what, so long as both of you are in it.
Very useful if you somehow manage to go historical like Castille inheriting Aragon. Or your culture group is otherwise big enough that it contains a nation you don't want to conquer.

Not so useful if you're, say, Navarra. :P

Inheriting is still free provinces though. Just be wary of overtextension, that can happen pretty easy if you're a colonial power and haven't focused on expanding in Europe too much.

So I am England and steadily building up my power and grabbing land where possible. I have the best navy, but for some reason it starts a battle with quarter morale, the land force starts the battle with half morale. This started when the French attacked me. Maintenance sliders have been at max for over a year now, but nothing changes. I an neither over my force limit.

Help please?

God DAMN I love this game!

In the army screen you can hover over the moral to see the actual modifiers. Effected by your kings military skill, tech, NI's andadvisors etc. The grand army national idea has a big effect proportion wise early game, for example.

Both armies only start with max morale if they have the exact same morale. This is because the max morale is the same for both armies, leading to you starting with half morale if France's normal morale is twice as much as yours.

How is it possible that both the French navy and land forces have double my morale?

This is the year 1435.

He already said that his maintenance is set to max...

Anyway, personally I can't really help because I don't think I've played vanilla even once before going to mods. :P

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Maybe the group was taking attrition damage? Does that affect morale?

Holy crap, I just inherited three PUs (Wallachia, Epirus, Bulgaria) at once in my MEIOU Serbia game and my god I am now at least twice the size I was before.

Unfortunately, no cores. At all! So that means I'm going to be choking on rebels. Good times. Hopefully nobody will decide to screw me over.
