Easy “Let Them Eat Cake” achievement

Uprisings occur when your people are dissatisfied. Have a low approval rate, low happiness, and a constitution not in line with the majority. Killing faction leaders will speed the process.

Note: This can be earned with the “Think Tanks” achievement.

Easy “Putsch and Judy” achievement

Do not have an army that is too powerful. Consider only having a single barracks. You have to defeat them with your palace guards. Preferably, upgrade them to death squad. Pay them low wages to lower their loyalty. Then, issue a kill order on the faction leader. This will inevitably lead to a military coup.

Easy “Retro-futurism” achievement

Start a sandbox game with infinite money on the easiest difficulty in the Cold War Era. Build a dozen Libraries and fully staff them. Build Observatories and Colleges and also fully staff them.
