OK, so I just took all of France's cities (they only had 4, anyhow)
I gave one back to them to make them happier with me, because they were pretty pissed, and it was all surrounded by desert anyway.
Next turn I decide I really don't need the maintenance from their other city I took either, their Capital, because it didn't give me any resources, and it was about 40-50 tiles away from my own capital... a fair distance, with roads only halfway there. Anyhow, I gave them their capital back and SUDDENLY, with no warning at all, my revolution warnings go from flat and improving to Every single city going into something like "drastically decreasing" in red! now a turn later it's fine... I wasn't in anarchy either.
What is up with this?
