Did I miss something or are there rules in the AP somewhere for realms that are parts of other (larger) realms, or are vassal to them in some form?
I was thinking of running a Kingmaker-like campaign in Cormyr's Stonelands, using the adventure hook in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, in which the PCs would create a Barony of the Stonelands. But it would be quite strange for them to act in a completely independent manner, not having to pay some form of tax to Cormyr at least, for instance, and other duties.
I would recommend something simple, like a 10% tax. Each month, the PC's Barony would have to pay 10% of their total BP produced (minimum 1 BP each month) to Cormyr. Also, have an ambassador of sorts that requires a Noble Manor be built for them first. Any building costing more than 10xSize requires approval from the ambassador, using Diplomacy or opposed Cha, whatever works best for you.
Just some ideas, I wish I'd had Kingmaker when I ran a FR campaign doing what you're doing. :D

I'd probably give them maybe 1 year with out paying taxes at least. It would be in Cormyr's best interest for them to succeed-- more buffer and tax base.
