The revolt % you see on any given province in EU or EU2 is a chance per month for that province to revolt in that month. Here are the chances that a given province will revolt at least once in a year, at a certain monthly revolt %:
Code:
:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- %/year %/month %/year multi revolts 1 11.4 0.6 2 21.5 2.3 3 31.6 4.9 4 38.7 8.1 5 46.0 11.8 6 52.4 16.0 7 58.1 20.3 8 63.2 24.9 9 67.8 29.5 10 71.8 34.1 11 75.3 35.6 12 78.4 43.1-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So as you can see if a province has a 5% revolt chance per month, it is nearly 50% likely to revolt at least once in any given year. Each % increase from 1 -> 2 -> 3 is an extra 10% chance per year, quite significant. Above that the increment per monthly revolt % point drops quite a bit; so you can expect a noticeable change if you improve a province from 2% down to 1%, but you might not notice a drop from, say, 10% to 9%. These numbers also apply to any other monthly % of course.
