Umkinnu--that's right next to Taselak City, isn't it?  It's  
fiendishly difficult to keep a region right next to an enemy capital,  
especially when said region was taken from said enemy.

My guess as to the reasons behind Umkinnu's recalcitrance in the  
Region Report are "The people hate being ruled by us" and "Distance  
from the capital causes anarchists to prosper," probably with some  
"The people here feel they do not fit in with the rest of the realm"  
thrown in.  Those are very difficult to fix...you just have to be  
patient...and clearly, your current strategy isn't working, so you  
may have to try another one.

Also, if you brutally took it over, or did a lot of looting in that  
area before you took it over, it may take *months* for them to get  
over it, and until they do they'll *never* like you no matter what  
you do.

It might be better for you to just let it go rogue, sit there for a  
while, and HTO it when the sympathy rises enough...
