No, but some provinces never become independent, whereas some others may do it if you let them rebel.

I thought colonies and provinces with 0 revolt risk don't revolt? I had a revolt today in a level 3 colony (not conquered, so no religion difference) with no natives, and no event involved. There also weren't any revolts nearby - the only two bordering provinces, one was a city of mine, the other a Turkish TP with no natives.
According to the text I got, the revolt started there, too. How could this happen?

Yes, colonies revolt from time to time.
The population will drop no matter whether there's an army present or not.
Must be one of these things they call a "feature"
While I could understand that a revolt can occur in a province when the mother country doesn't send anybody for a long time (isolated people can get some nasty ideas) it's hard to understand how a level 1 colony (just founded) revolts after some months.
Ugly.

Troublemakers sent away from the homeland
I think that you are not killing all the natives off when you have the chance. Just because you win a battle does not mean that they are all gone, sometimes it takes multiple battles. What you may have missed is that if you select your army in the province, there is a button down the bottom of the army screen that says attack natives. When you win a fight, if this button is there, hit it again straight away, and keep pushing this button the moment the fight is finished until they are all gone.
Unless you kill off all the natives they will grow back to their old strength over time as people have said.
The 'not sending people' for a long time factor isn't it - I had established the colony and grown it to level 3 within the last 8-10 years. I was also not at war. (I had, in fact, just captured the two adjacent provinces - with cities - three years after I founded the colony, and the troops that crushed the rebellion were raised there))
The question wasn't if this could happen - I've seen it happen before - but how. I saw absolutely nothing in the game situation that should have caused a revolt. There were no natives, no troops anywhere nearby, no religious differences, no nationalist provinces (this all happened in Africa), and the country wasn't at war or low stability.
Anyone have a clue?
To recap the situation - a level 3 colony in Africa, with no apparent cause, revolted. Only two provinces border it - one my city (recently conquered from a third party, but religiously converted to my state religion and without nationalism), the other a Turkish TP. Revolt risk was 0%, and there was no random event causing the revolt. There was one other revolt (religious/nationalist in origin) operating in my territory at the time, but it was on the far side of my empire - at least 10 provinces away.

I have noticed it too, always in provinces where natives are killed off. I wonder if it is a native uprising, but when there are no natives there the computer makes it a rebellion-style uprising instead.
I hate it when it happens as it always seems to kill off half the colony, which is usually one I am striving to make into a city.
