Check which issue is currently most important. It seems like you have too few liberals in your upper house. As Germany I can normally get at least 40% liberals in the Upper House by 1860's without any effort. Did you promote capitalists? Are you still taxing the poor and middle class over 50%?
As for your coal issue, it might be some countries you have in your sphere of influence which eat up all your coal. Also check in the trade screen to see how much coal your industries and POP's use. By that time as Germany my capitalists build so many glass factories that I have to start importing, anyway it's not a big deal as long as there is enough coal on the world market.
Hi Dron22,
Can you teach me how to get 40% liberals in UH by 1860? Step-by-step guide is highly appreciated. My Germany is always massively conservative, and if I don't break infamy, seems like conciousness will actually drop.
About the coal, I had sphered most of South America, China and a free India (Bengal + Patna), plus a few more. What I don't understand is, my coal RGO is hardly filled. In fact, there are huge umeployment issue there, why isn't them filled up to produce more coal? I tag switch to Russia and check their coal province, they have employment of > 50%, whilst mine is lingering around 10%. What give? My tech is up-to-date also.
