I'm running Kingmaker with the kingdom in the background. So what do I do with all the experience they are supposed to gain for building their kingdom?

There's a chart on page 61 of Rivers Run Red that has a ton of experience I'm supposed to deal out for reaching certain kingdom sizes. If I don't award this xp the PCs will end up under powered. So should I just give them the xp even though they aren't running the kingdom?

If I do give them the xp, how do I know when? Since the awards are based on the kingdom reaching a certain size, and you don't track kingdom size with "kingdom in the background" rules, how do you know when to award xp?

I guess I'm really just confused about how these locations fit into the adventure.

In the Varnhold Vanishing module there is a section called "Into the Stolen Lands" that has several locations listed, like Drowned Trees and Lostlarn Keep, but there is no map showing where they are. They aren't on the Nomen Heights map in the module. Are you just supposed to drop them in anywhere in the Stolen Lands, or am I missing something?
