There are just 5-6 events that shouldn't happen in the first year.

No, I strongly disagree. If you take misfortune, you have to do it with the understanding that you are rolling the dice with your entire nation. Preventing the really bad events in the first year would make taking Misfortune practically a no-brainer since it extremely rapidly becomes less of a problem as your empire expands.
