I think that this is a major exaggeration, since I typically only see 2 events a turn with turmoil 3 and luck 3 with over 20 provinces.
In which case 40 provinces with those settings should see ... 4 events a turn, wouldn't you agree? And 80 provinces should see ... 8. But they don't, they never do. Thus, events are not actually based on empire size except for very small empires.

Which leads to the conclusion several people have posted, which is that Order is much more valuable than Luck, because Order's benefit scales with the size of the empire (as does Growth & Productivity especially), and Luck does not.
