So it's around 1872 and I'm playing as a unified Italy. Through the 1860's, I was totally fine and never had any problems with my population. However, now, I get revolts super often and it's just really damn annoying. I even put in social reforms, and funded them adequately, but provinces kept on revolting. What should I do to "calm" the population?
 
What year did you unify? For 10 years after there'll be a revolt risk in annexed provinces due to nationalism, but if revolts were non existant in the 1860s, that's probably not it. Try looking at the POPs of a province with high revoltrisk and if their militancy is increasing, see what's make it go up.

My guess would be that you're a Monarchy and have high plurality.. That can be devastating in terms of militancy. Suffrage voting rights also help with reducing militancy which will also help as once the people have elected a party they like, they'll get a militancy reduction if they like the party in power.

Taxes below 33% also reduces militancy and presuming your ruling party isn't free trade you can set high tarrifs and taxes as low as possible.

You have to wait for the social reforms to take a significant effect on militancy. Or, if it is about nationalism, you have to wait for 10 years.
