If you all remember your history correctly 1848 was dubbed "springtime of the peoples" when people everywhere revolted against european imperialists.

In RTW I am having a similiar problem.In all my campaigns I play I usually forge a huge empire.But I have problems holding it.Am I losing wars to an enemy faction?No.

Then what you may ask?REBELLIONS.I set taxes to low and build plenty of public happiness buildings everywhere.But I have MASSIVE rebellions all over my empire!This is bad when im fighitng a war against an enemy faction and those 4 armies I'm sending up to the front as reinforcements for my soldiers who are holding my frontier settlements from the enemy onslaught are forced to divert there course back into the depths of my country and fight some peasants!

Also my economy tends to go negative even in cities where all the max economic buildings have been built.

People tell me "wow your army is HUGE you should just take the 50 provinces and win!"

Thats not my playingstyle. I like to forge a nice and powerful empire like I did in MTW and STW. I just got RTW and it is better in most aspects but in some it is lacking:like the frequent negative econmies and rebellions that happen for no reason what so ever.

As soon as a rebellious city is captured its people are put to the sword.This makes the economy and loyalty of the city go back to normal....before they rebel again for absolutley no reason whatsoever...


So how exactly do I stop these rebellions?I find it tiresome and annoying to constantly have to keep large garrisons in cities and keep attacking the same exact rebels and massacring the city 40 times per game...
