I think the main issue is that whole "nothing better to do with their 
time".  If you're not actively fighting, you're happy with your unit, 
and you don't want/have the gold to burn on Academy training, why not 
help with Civil Work?  Instead of messing with how region stats are 
influenced, I think what is needed is something else to do, that helps 
characters as opposed to the realm.  Maybe something in the region you 
are sworn to, where you can spend hours (Keeping the Peasants in Line, 
or some such) to gain gold for your personal use?  Or spending hours to 
improve your estates?  Something.
