As an update to my suggestion from a while ago 
oo) post 948, here's what I envision as an update to the dutch revolt sequence.
After the failure of the Edict of Blood a more humane policy was adopted. It was understood that the Netherlands could only be kept if the wishes of the catholic provinces were agreed upon. In 1579 the Union of Arras was signed with some of the southern Catholic provinces the Catholic provinces of Artois and Hainault., which were in rebellion. However In response, some of the Northern provinces then created the Union of Utrecht, the first sign of a new country. In addition to the northern provinces, all of the key southern cities, Bruges, Ghent, Antwerp, Brussels, and Brabant, joined the union despite apathy from their surrounding territories.
I still need to create the event text for The Dissolution of the Council of State which I suppose only needs a Flandern and Brabant version, as they are the only provinces affected.

I still need to create the event text for The Dissolution of the Council of State which I suppose only needs a Flandern and Brabant version, as they are the only provinces affected.
IIRC, Frisia joined as well even though they had no revolts in their province, rest is fine by me
Oh Frisia falls under "some of the Northern provinces", although given that they all eventually joined, it might make sense to just remove the "some of" bit.
Also, here is the event_text for the new "The Dissolution of the Council of State" event:
#From the start of Dutch Revolt a lack of central authority had made it difficult for the provinces to coordinate their efforts against royalist forces. By 1581 it was decided to setup Council of State, located in Brabant, to direct the war from a single command center. However, a competing council was also setup to direct forces in the northern theater. The division of Dutch forces allowed for a royalist resurgence in Brabant and Flanders. Viewing the southern lowlands as a lost cause, the Council of State in Brabant dissolved itself in 1583.

A little late... Just for confirmation, do the changes apply to all Union of Arras events or only for Friesen? Same question for new Dissolution of the Council of State event.
Change applies to all Union of Arras events (all provinces). Dissolution of the Council of State needs only occur for Flandern and Brabant provinces.
