Spies (well, anything with the spy ability) should work as well.

Sure, they _should_. They should also report on the amount of food in the province, possibly on the scale, but they don't.

Only way I know of is to put scouts there, take neighbors, and possibly figure that "Plains have high population, so kill them first".

Outside your dominion, you can see:

population, income, resources and dominions (also the value of the different scale). You can also see some magic sites (I really not understand which ones), but only theyr presence and type, not the exact site.

Inside your dominione, you can also see:

the exact amount of enemies armies (also the type an name of the leader) and the name of the magic sites (still I'm not usre if you see all of them or just a part of them)

good play

My spies do report enemy population outside my dominion, in the province they are in. My scouts might not, but my spies do.

You can also see the enemy heroes in the hall of fame. Even if they are already dead.
