So in my current game a center of revolution popped up in my country, yet I can do literally nothing about it. I have so many unrest reduction modifiers that it can't spawn revolutionaries, and for whatever reason it refuses to spread the revolution to my own provinces, but instead spread it to only my client states and a few neighboring nations. My client states convert to revolutionary, so I crush the revolution for 3 stability, only for them to immediately convert back without any rebels even spawning in them a few months later. So I'm in this situation where apparently revolutionaries are nonstop sabotaging my client states, and despite knowing what province they are in, I can't do anything to stop them. I can't release the province either, there's a rule in place against that apparently. This feels like an oversight and it's pretty much killed my desire to play as no matter how many crush the revolution wars I fight, the AI just flips back without rebels even spawning and the center of revolution just refuses to spread in my own provinces. I hope something is done about this in a future patch, because not being able to take any internal action against the revolution in this situation, nor being able to stop my client states from flipping without permissions is very unfun.

How high is your absolutism? The revolution spreads to 3 random provinces each month with high absolutism.

I have 100 absolutism. It has been 20 years and it has not spread to any other province within my nation.

Interesting, so I went looking through the changelog to see if anything might have been altered to the revolution spread mechanics and found this:
- The Revolution is much less likely to spread to a very stable monarchy (stable means here that the owner has 2 Stability and 90 Legitimacy).
The wiki page on the revolution doesn't appear to have ben updated since 1.30 and this change was introduced in 1.33.2.
Looks like you might have to dump your stability and legitimacy to spread the revolution within your provinces. Time to abdicate your ruler and declare a no CB war or two.
My current campaign as Commonwealth under 1.33.2 is in the 1680s so I'll be experiencing the revolution mechanics soon enough first hand, but I haven't yet played a game long enough to see it for myself under the 1.33.2 patch. Hopefully I can Poland Into Space and then I'm done with the late game for a while I think.

That sucks, so to actually deal with it I have to waste a decade intentionally sabotaging my country. I feel like I shouldn’t be punished for being stable. If the revolution can’t spread inside of my nation, then I should have a way to get rid of the center of revolution inside of it, or it should relocate if it can’t do anything in it’s host nation.

True, you could just wait out the Age and the centre will disappear eventually, but you'll get massive autonomy issues in the meantime.
It's a function of your absolutism that the first centre spawned in your country, to avoid the spawn you would have needed to dump your absolutism at the beginning of the Age.

Not anymore. It raises your base unrest now, rather than base autonomy. It gets way up there too, so you'll be spending a lot of time crushing rebels.
