How to lower infamy?
I am playing as Brazil. I have attacked several of my neighbors without justification, and brought my infamy up to 95. This resulted in the Netherlands declaring war together with their ally Great Britain, although I have managed to fight them off and get peace.
I would like to continue conquering my neighbors, but since I don't seem to be getting war justifications, I would increase my infamy and probably have the whole world attack me. How can I lower infamy?
Best Answer
Infamy is slowly reduced gradually over time. You can release a nation as a satellite and receive a small reprieve on your infamy. Additionally, there are a few decisions that will reduce infamy by a small amount (2 or 3), but they are rare.
This is an intentional design choice by Paradox - infamy is designed to discourage you from conquering other nations and being generally warlike.
