No but Seriously does anyone know a quick way to disable Cholera in the game because it happens too often, and after it has finished ravaging a province the neighboring province reinfects it.

the effects Cholera can be easily be reduced with medical techs. It's usually top of my list now, since epidemics trashed my first two attempt with Belgium. Had the potato blight as well -- that can devastate a small country. I quit playing as Belgium after that ...

Yeah but when your an uncivilized nation that's still 50 percent away from westernization and a Cholera epidemic sweeps your nation for 10 years it does not go well....

Worst part about playing an unciv in India is you're surrounded by other tiny unciv nations, and all the disease events are increased twice as much if you don't have certain techs, then on top of that there's also a 10x multiplier if a neighboring country has it. So ten shitty indian countries will literally pass cholera back and forth until half their starting population is dead. Seriously, take a look at the starting population of Sindh or Punjab and then compare it in 1890 assuming they didn't get annexed by the UK. Their population will always be smaller than the 1836 start.

Sent an expeditionairy force to take Johore, as I wanted the precious metals to bankroll my industrialising efforts, left about 60% of my army at home, to ward off the dutch, about 60% of that army were wallonian, they all went nationalist on me, promptly destroying my loyal Flemish forces. They, plus a few 9k rebel stacks meant that by the time I got my army back from Malaya.... it was too late, had to watch from my transports as they'd seiged bruges and camped a 21k stack there. I could have cried

Smash up taxes and tariffs, subsidise factories and go full right wing party, max troop count and start promoting craftsman pop national focus. Should stop everyone getting life needs and so start rapid pop demotion to craftsmen, hence rapid industrialisation. I saw my militancy rise, but it coincided with my johore annexation, thought nothing of it. It only took till 1840 for rebels to pop up, at which point I was 2nd industrial power, just under 180 points. By end of rebellion I had 20
