Question on title.

Last time I checked, I have 35% literacy as Sokoto (have at least 2% of Clergy on every region) but the CON is still dropping. I have Order as my country's value which reduces CON by 0.01. I have Free Press. I research all the way up to Nationalism & Imperialism so my Plurality is good. I'm also civilised.

Did I missed something?

Engage in a massive brutal war with many many deaths. War exhaustion makes CON go crazy. In fact, it may be beneficial to plunge an order based nation into war early on - as strange as it sounds...

I thought high amounts of clergy reduced CON.

Does deaths from attrition counts? I have plenty of neighbouring no man's land crawling with mosquitoes and cannibals.

I just checked. Yes, I have plenty of Clergy. It sucks but I did it for the literacy and research boost.

Pops being able to fulfil their luxury demands increases CON, so perhaps drop taxes and/or tariffs?
