Empire Rebelled!

[Omanes Alexandrapolites]

Now, I do agree that a garrison of 400 troops *should* be enough to keep any province quiet. But is it actually enough in practice? Not always, at least in my experience.

Hmm, that's true in my experience too, although I have had very little of it so it could just be an irregular occurace. The English controlled the whole of France and then they were ex-communicated by his most holiness. At this point most of their provinces had at least one three-quarter stack in them which certainly was over four-hundred men. That very turn the French re-emerged with up to three epic and full stacks in every province in Southern and Eastern France, their reason for this rebellion was due to the English leader's excommunication. The English were almost totally removed from France, losing battle after battle, as they lacked the troops to prevent them from re-taking complete control. This could be an exception, however, so it can't really be considered to be a completely perfect and definitive record.
