Intro
Have you been trying to make that perfect jingoistic, ultra reactionary government (just me?), but jacobins still find your monarchy annoying even with your low taxes? I will show the way to stopping rebel spawns for good.

SIDE NOTE: This works on saved games and it seemed to have all the rebels in those save games disband rather quickly
File to modify
Youre going to need to go into your file explorer, find the steam folder wherever it is:

Steam/steamapps/common/Victoria 2/common

open up defines.lua with your text document editor.

if you use a mod (PDM, Ultimate, etc.) then it will be in:

Steam/steamapps/common/Victoria 2/mod/<modname>/common

--------------------------------------------------

Now what you need to do is either

"ctrl + f" and search "MIL_TO_"

this is what you should find:

MIL_TO_JOIN_REBEL = 7, -- Rebels over this will join a faction
MIL_TO_JOIN_RISING = 8, -- Rebels over this will join a general rising
MIL_TO_AUTORISE = 9, -- Rebels over this rise no matter what

or look for it manually (line 664)

-------------------------------------------------

change it to this:

MIL_TO_JOIN_REBEL = 11, -- Rebels over this will join a faction
MIL_TO_JOIN_RISING = 11, -- Rebels over this will join a general rising
MIL_TO_AUTORISE = 11, -- Rebels over this rise no matter what

You can also change this to something higher than the default values but lower than 10 to reduce/slow rebel spawns instead of disabling it (or have fun and lower the number so rebels spawn insanly fast!).
---------------------------------------------------

This makes rebels unable to rise other than through an event. Militancy maxes at 10, so anything above 10 is unobtainable, so you dont need to worry about rebellions for you, or the AI. Theres no way to make this only for you and not the AI that I know of. Hope this helped you.
NO REBELS!!!!
Now you can run your country like soviet russia and not have to worry about liberals! If you see the red/black flag that says rebel factions are organising dont worry, their militancy will never get high enough to rebel.

No. Rebels (specifically Jacobin rebels) are a horribly designed mechanic. It's better to just remove them from the game.
