The event "Popular unification" is like this:

#########################################################################
# Popular Unification of Germany
#########################################################################
event = {
id = 4612
random = no
country = PRU

trigger = {
NOT = { constitution = { country = ANH type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = AUS type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = BAD type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = BAY type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = BRA type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = BRE type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = COB type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = FRM type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = FRM type = monarchy } }

NOT = { constitution = { country = HAM type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = HAN type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = HED type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = HEK type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = HLS type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = LIP type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = LUB type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = MEC type = monarchy } }

NOT = { constitution = { country = SGF type = monarchy } }

NOT = { constitution = { country = OLD type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = PRU type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = SAX type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = WEI type = monarchy } }
NOT = { constitution = { country = WUR type = monarchy } }
}

name = "EVT_1509_NAME"
desc = "EVT_1509_DESC"
style = 0

date = { day = 15 month = january year = 1836 }
offset = 30
deathdate = { day = 30 month = december year = 1851 }

action_a = {
name = "ACCEPT" # Accept
command = { type = constitution which = democracy }
command = { type = executive_designation which = parliamentarism }
command = { type = party_system which = multi_party }
command = { type = national_value which = equality }
command = { type = set_ruling_party which = 4600 }
command = { type = country which = GER }
}
}


I have highligthed the flaw. AFAIK it cannot trigger with this flaw, I could be wrong ;).
When I removed the douple FRM entry and the SGF and NGF entries it could trigger (the rest were nicely cheated into constitutional-mornarchy or democarzy :D).

I think it's no problem because it will only double check the trigger for FRM and the SGF and NGF is also no problem because if they not exists the event will ignore these trigger conditions! ;)
 
But if that is true, how come when I didn't edit the file, I could not trigger the event?
And in the edited one, I triggered it just fine.
 
Ok perhaps the double frm is anyway the problem... i couldn't imagine that!
But SGF and NGF works surely because it's also included in "Conservative Empire" event and that works fine.
 
I gets more 'n more strange. Now the popular unification for the German minors will not fire. When I try to artificial fire 'em, the header says that event 4612 has not fired... WTF? How can I be Germany in 1837 without the popular unification? This bogles my mind.
 
BTW I forgot to mention that this is in VIP, but the events for Prussia is the original ones. Could it have something to do with VIP?
 
AFAIK this has nothing to do with VIP.

I also experienced this problem, after annexing and re-releasing all the minors except NGF and SGF the Pop. Unification did not trigger.
As soon as I changed the event file ( http://www.europa-universalis.com/forum/showthread.php?t=130202&highlight=popular+unification ) it did trigger. Because of the offset in the event files of the minors they will join you within a month.
If you fire an event manually, it is not logged in the game history, so the prerequisites for the events of the minors are not given.

I think the popular unification event is part of a conspiracy. There are some people in this forum who believe it is not bugged and has happened in their games, perhaps the constitution of a not-existing country is determined by the country Vicky was bought in, this would explain me failing at five tries while others suceeded.

SGF & NGF entries are not a problem...
maybe like Wilhelm says here, the double entry of FRM is the problem... but i don't think so...
