Awkward Taxation.

[Devastatin Dave]

Why do schools cause rebellion? It just seems kind of weird like.

Because a less educated society is an easily controlled society.

But yes, I would prefer a taxation model of the old TW games...

[Tsavong]

The advantage of this is its easer to set and probably a bit more realistic. Also to course a rebellion in your capital exempt the rest of the cites in that part of the world from tax then jack them up to get a revolution

The exempt from tax I do like.

[Lord of the Isles]

Because a less educated society is an easily controlled society.

Players could try what the government in Britain has done to its Universities over the last 30 years or so. Put in lots of accountants and managers to run them, take away power from the academics and force them to waste their time doing lots of meaningless tasks like Quality Assurance and Research Assessment Exercises.

Result: much less dissent and independence of thought. Much less thought of any kind mind you but there you go.
