This is my first post- hopefully I'm not too late- and it's broken up into two questions:
Can distant cities belonging to an empire, say Roman, up and decide to start their own nation, or ally themselves to a nation closer to them? For example, if a Roman empire has two or three cities overseas where there are strategic oil reserves, can those cities- being so far from the influence of their country- decide to ally themselves to another nation that's within a closer approximation?
The second question: Can a defeated nation seek refuge in the territory of another country- either permanently or temporarily? For example (I'll use Romans again) If my Roman empire strikes down the Persians and they're retreating from my offensive push, can they seek sanctuary in their allies' territory?
