So what are you suggesting be done in this particular situation?

I think the easiest solution is to say that the incomes from holdings and land in the Zwielunds don't refer to people at all but are an abstraction to represent the pirate income. If the number of pirates is small enough not to trigger the problems Andrew is talking about but is profitable enough, it could produce the GB's and represent a very small population
This would require a note that they can't, for instance, raise a unit of knights on the Zwielunds, and set some "actual" population figure for things like what kind of units can be raised, supported, &c.
The level 6 province represents pirate take, not indigenous production.

Now, this I like. I was thinking along the lines that there must be a lot
more trade than we see, `cause there`s sure a lot of pirates out there to take
it.
