Just out of curiosity, how can I make one of my planets riot?

Force the population to wear seatbelts.

In advance, I'm sorry but I just had to!

That, wasn't funny.
Ok, yes it was.

Next time I'm gonna charge you .25 cents to clean my monitor for making me spurt my hot chocolate all over the screen.

Don't build troops on the planet. Don't build Urban Pacification Centers or other happiness facilities. Let an enemy fleet sit unchallenged in your system for a while. Don't try to break a blockade. Lose the battle when you finally do attack.

Build some ships with just C&C comps (no weapons, engines, etc.). Gift them to an AI. Declare war. Now you have a bunch of ships orbiting your planet, so it will riot faster.

Now that its an evil plan.

Question: When its rebels, what are the odds of becoming independent or going over to another player?

What I wanted to do was to give independance to a system. Since there isin't any political way to do this, I thought that provoking a rebellion on a planet, then signing a trade treaty, and later gifting them the rest of the planets in the system would be the way to do it.

Another question is, if I put one of those inmobile ships on every planet in the system, will all the planets rebel and become individually independents or will all of them create a new empire?

Also, will the new independent planet be an empire or a minor?
