Thanks for reporting its continued existence, we are aware that this bug came back a while ago and hopefully someone will get to investigate how it broke this time.

The problem is: What category should belong this initial ruler to, as he/she is the only one to not have any prior job? A governor, most likely, but this risks to not be very useful in an early empire, especially for a democracy with a fast turn over!
