Rebels, Rebels Everywhere

So I was starting my own PMD game as Germany. I formed Germany and after three long wars, I own most of eastern France. However, there is an issue. Every 3-6 months in game, a MASSIVE rebellion breaks out. Mostly consisting of French Patriots and Jacobins. I have selected the reform titled 'Universal Voting' in hope that I do not have to endure countless revolutions. This same thing happened in my vanilla Victoria 2 game as Germany. Both times these unprecedented rebels uprise around the same time period. (1880-1905) Any help at all?

And each rebellion has about 300k brigades ready to respond. :sad:

the french rebels are understandable. If anything I think there need to be MORE nationalist revolts, especially in Africa. I agree though there are too many ideological rebels. a 2 million man revolt in my UK is just disheartening. maybe in V3 we could see more prerequisites to revolution, like WE or something. I just have a feeling these kind of rebellions wer not common in stable countries.

The problem with UK (and Netherlands) is that the size of their colonial empire makes it difficult to generate sufficient suppression points to suppress the other movements when passing a reform, thus radicalizing them for passing the wrong reform.

The problem has frustrated me so much that I don't even play the game as often as I would like to. Please help me.

Hi EUnderhill,
Can you refresh my memory on how suppression point work again? TBH, I have never use it at all. Does it work the same in vanilla and POD? Thank you.

Keep taxes low, and if your government type lets you pick parties, choose a conservative party to run the government. Conservative parties tend to have the most support, and pops will become angry if their preferred party isn't in power.

EDIT: If you're playing the Pop Demand Mod, then you should be posting this in that forum instead of the main one.

First I have to refresh my own memory - I know more or less what is going on, but with a tolerance of "-ish".
