i manged it for 50 years without too many drama's in the end i created revolution because some of my provinces had unrest issues, i could have gone on longer just crushing rebellions tho cos my capital was pretty good.

build lots of +happiness, make sure u keep ur religion high % to ur faction religion, low taxes avoid the non critical social techs, keep large garrisons everywhere. upgrade all your towns +repression buildings. dont build universities in ur capital and/or rebellious provinces (bloody mysore)


more to the point, why would u bother, when i finally engineered revolution in my marthras camp, i was able to reset all my taxes cos the peasants stopped revolting and my income went from 40k a turn to 90k a turn. and i almost dont have to worry about revolt/revolution now im a republic.
