During the last war with the Japanese after completing all the sieges the Shogun was disbanded (not by me):



But this was popping up every day!

I'm at 100% but cannot annex:



And yet I cannot take any provinces in the peace!



I think this effectively ends my mission of WC. I'm either 1 or 3 (Novgorod) wars away from annexing everyone else and it's only 1841 so there's no way without this hiccup that I should not be able to do it. Does anyone know how to fix this?

And, this is the final world map:

 
Disband all your armies and let us see what happens when every province in your realm revolts. :p

Really? Is the number of rebellions dependent (in some way) on number of armies?

No,just to let them succeed.You could also change your national ideas so you get to stability -3 easily.

From there it is mere rebel-bashing and not killing everyone as Novgorod I cannot DOW without a stab loss. An absurd random cash boost gives >140,000 gold:



and then there are only 2:



Tahiti seems to have been placed to thwart a WC. It's nomadic so can only be attacked if you're next to it, but it's on an island! I've tried selling provinces to it to no avail. Perhaps I should have started before sending a gift does more than nothing from -200.

As far as I'm concerned the WC has been completed. The world is mine. The date is 1860.

A few observations:

-> converting to France was pointless; I should have remained as the UK.
-> maximising production of magistrates (current total per year at end 20.9) is vital to kick out cathedrals for the converting of provinces and upgrading all the new provinces you'll require.
-> conquering so much territory before I went over the BB threshold meant far less nastiness in rebels. (I've done a vanilla WC and that was really bad; this was a breeze in comparsion).
-> i don't know why but the -stab and uber-rebel-from-hell events didn't happen during the BB wars which really assisted the conquering
-> forts seems slightly crazy; lvl 5/6 forts are incredibly WE-intensive to take down. It also seems to lead a lot of not-that-great provinces to be worth something like 30-40 war score which seems nonsense. (Perhaps this has to do with something else; I'm not sure)
 
Just use the code annex (tag) to finish it off.

Nice work, though I agree, I'd like to see what happens if you just switched to Tahiti and watched the empire fall. Please?

Good AAR, though of course a WC is much easier when you go over the infamy limit.

Thanks. I've tried switching to Tahiti and for 15 years I watched it (as the game is extremely slow). At each autosave I'd reload as France to see what rebellions there were and they were very low: 3 or 4 at each point. At the 15 years point there was only one rebel controlled province up near Kamchatka. Each time France was at +3 stability I presume because of the overflow I was experiencing.
