Permanent unrest penalty in all conquered settlements

[MarcusAureliusAntoninus]

The "permanent unrest" that some town have (Taras) are not intentional and just seems to happen without a cause.

Personally I don't think there is enough unrest and it should be far more common for outlying settlements to rebel, forcing players to use bigger garrisons. Look how long it actually took Rome to pacify Italy or in the Imperial period 3/4 legions to garrison Britain.

Your town was just conquered, you're a young man, you've got skills with a weapon, and most of your friends are in the same boat. Are you just gunna sit around and take it?

Depending on who conquered your town, you probably aren't even around anymore

Plus you don't have to be a male of military age to cause unrest - even women and children can cause unrest by, for example, throwing rotten vegetables and acts of petty crime.

Some seemingly permanent unrest may be caused by enemy spies. AI spies get a lot of subterfuge, just as AI generals gain stars. With such high skill they are very difficult to weed out from your cities.
