My nation just celebrated it's birthday (1 week) and gained +2 happiness. My people seem to adore me even more , showing it by paying more taxes
There are some rebellious elements however that only saw the birthday celebrations as an opportunity to blow up a building
. I have had to send a squad from State Security to hunt them down. This reduced my soldiers below am adequate level, however I could easily afford training another squad to take over thus keeping the average income high. The other option was either to reduce income by upgrading security or do nothing and end up with unhappy subjects.
