I want to emphasize that I'm sharing my thoughts openly, with no intention to come across as impolite.
I understand there is no competition over the Pacific region, hence it's removal.
I do however feel that from an Economy point of view, I'm a little surprised the Pacific region vanished overnight, despite siege regions being the only resource worth fighting for on this Earth server. It's a little like if you removed an irl nation's oil reserve without any prior warning, it makes little sense. It's the number one thing we fight for, it shouldn't matter if a major alliance controls it, in my honest opinion.
Making a mechanic where the income from a siege region varies depending on the level of competition would be nice but I understand if that's challenging to implement.
I'm actually writing this in hopes we can have either the Pacific region back, or the addition of Mid Indian siege zone. As it's very confusing to have it removed. I'm certain you would get the same response given the removal of the Atlantic regions.
