Do the different government types have direct effects on happiness or only indirect ones via unlocking certain buildings? If they do have direct effects, what are they? I was thinking of working up through the types as QuintusSertorius suggested - replacing Type 4 with Type 3 after a generation etc and just wondering what that will do for happiness.
Taras is still a sore on the republic for me - I think I will have to get a client ruler and see if I can raise taxes to choke off population growth until it gets more content. Right now, I am just treading water with low taxes - its just barely keeping happy with the population steadily adding more pressure.
I probably should have enslaved or expelled the population, but it did not feel right from a role-playing point of view.
I suspect Syracuse is going to cause me similar issues.
