The strategy game Victoria 3 is developed by Paradox Development Studios and published by Paradox Interactive. Although the player should promote policies aligned with their desires, he or she should also watch out for populations with different interests while promoting policies aligned with their desires.
The act of influencing is something that only the eight most powerful nations in the world can do. They can affect other countries that are not as strong as them. The amount of power and control that a nation has is based on the priorities set on the Diplomacy screen. Over time, these priorities and the amount of power a nation has will change.

How to increase Influence?
As with all other Capacities, your starting point for Influence is your base value. However, your rank determines how much extra output you can generate. Countries are ranked by comparing their Prestige value to others in the game. Prestige considers several factors, including GDP, military power projection, and country tier.
The amount of influence a nation has is based on many factors, including the number of days since the last update and any modifiers that have been applied. These modifiers can be either positive or negative and are cumulative – so a -50% modifier and a +75% modifier would result in a +25% net gain to daily influence. Once a great power has 100 influence over another nation, any further influence investments will be spent on reducing the influence reserves of competing for great powers.
The happiness of different interest groups can have an effect on your Influence. For example, the Landowners group has a +5 happiness rating, which activates the Family Ties trait and gives you a 10% bonus to Influence.
The Society Technology Tree offers several technologies that can help you boost your influence. With these tools at your disposal, you’ll be able to make a real difference in the world.
