Revolutionairy France

[AjJay]

I'm playing France and I want revolutionair rebels take over my gouvernement. The problem is I am also the HRE and my vassals are sieging every province the rebels occupy. I try keeping them busy by war but I can't hold on to that forever. Any hints?

That's an odd situation.

So, to get things straight, you're the Kaiser? And want a Republican gov't? The kind that would oust you from your office because Republican leaders cannot be the Kaiser?

War is really the only way, besides annexing your vassals.

I don't think war will help at all. Vassals and allies seem even more eager to help quash rebels when there's a war on. Maybe if it's a desperate war and there are higher priorities, they might ignore them, but that seems awfully risky.

Might work, though, if they're all attached to you stacks and far removed from the scene.

 

[grisamentum]

No, war does work. They prioritize enemies even over their own rebels.

He passed all but the final reform, so even if he goes republican he will keep the Emperor because he passed the no-election reform.

 

[Gunburned]

take out 10 loans to easily trigger it

 

[AjJay]

Thanks, I will try. I did indeed pass all but the last reform.

 

[AjJay]

It worked. Eventually you will get an event that changes the country to Revolutionary France. The rebels don't have to overthrow the gouvernment for that to happen.

What are the exact steps needed to reach a revolutionary republic when you have a monarchy in good health (french and not french)? Does it need to be at least a concrete century for it to fire? Do you need instability? Etc...

Non french cannot become a revolutionary republic, unless they start with the government type (which applies to certain American revolters)

I'm pretty sure they can, but only as part of a DHE after FRA has become RFR.
