The Year of Revolutions

  1. Economic strife
  2. Inflation
  3. Protests

  • Suppress the Press
  • Censor media sources
  • Limit education
    • Control education
    • Limit to upper classes
  • Imprison political activists
  • Lower taxes
  • Go to war! (Against a country you can beat)

Conclusion

The warning signs for revolutions are clear and identifiable. They must be preemptively handled in order to suppress them. To this end, the press must be strictly controlled, as well as education. If a government is able to do this, then they will be able to control their population and avoid strife.
