Parmenion
Warlord
Okay, can anyone solve this one then?
(Playing as the Egyptians on Regent, Huge Continents) I recently had a Roman city flip to my side as they have a tiny civilisation and were envious of my culture. Within 4 turns I had rushed (and paid for) a temple, courthouse, cathedral and marketplace and the new citizens had access to at least 7 luxuries that they didn't previously have. I zoomed to the city in question and made sure no one was unhappy and that production was doing fine, then left it alone for a while building a library whilst I concentrated on the rest of my empire. Three more turns later and the city went into Civil Disorder and upon asking the revolting peasants what the problem was, they told me, "We cannot forget the cruel oppression you bore down upon us." !!!!!!!! What the hell do they want? I couldn't believe what I was hearing and when another Roman city decided to overthrow it's rulers I turned them down because I couldn't handle another lot of whinging ingraites who didn't appreciate what I had done for them. I thought I was welcoming these people with open arms into my culture and then they throw this into my face.
Needless to say the problem was resolved with the creation of a few entertainers and I never had a problem with them again (perhaps because there were more Egyptians in the city than Romans after that). I half hoped that there could have been a way to punish the Romans in the city by summary executions or imprisonment but I guess that would have made the problem much worse.
Why did this happen and has anyone else experienced this?
