I tried the solution by Lankey but found some of it wouldn't work for me. My happiness kept going up instead of down (I did every nasty thing I could think of and still had 55% happiness when I gave up).
I used Where's the Beef and also had very fast forward. Also, I upped my army pay and general pay (not as much as he did) from the beginning. I put on all "happy" edicts (food, pollution, social security, etc).
Where I differed is:
I kept open door policy throughout.
I played for 20 years with two fair elections before starting.
I had a huge economy (300+k), electricity, luxury homes, entertainment, worship, education, 300+ population, uneducated making 9 and others adjusted accordingly; it was like I was working on the Tropican Fiesta.
By the time 20 years had passed I was up to 56% happiness and an average of 80 respect between all factions.
Now was the time to strike. I demolished all homes, entertainment, churches/cathedrals, colleges/high schools. I lowered everyone's salary except military (who stayed the same) to 1. I removed all happiness edicts. I assassinated 3 people randomly. In 1952, two years later, the people asked for an election and I denied them (my happiness was down to 42% now) and voilà--uprising with 175 loyalists and 18 ticked citizens.
For me, my people didn't miss what I hadn't already given them in abundance but when I let them get happy and comfortable and took it away it was too much and they tried to fight back. |
