Can you get the best random events w/o Luck +3?

CW Pangaea also benefits from Turmoil/Luck, for the same reasons as Dead Ermor: Bad events can only kill population....losing 1/4th of your zero population hurts! (Yeah, right). So you can shake loose a fair number of goodies from Turmoil/Luck as a dead nation. Craptastic events happen about as often in Turmoil/Luck as they do in Order/Misfortune: You get a lot of random goodies on the side, but the greatly increased event frequency will increase the frequency of crappy things, as well.

Mictlan, however, is not a natural turmoil candidate. While you can control the spread of your dominion somewhat, which can reduce the effect of harmful scales, it's not a no-brainer.
