However it is absolutely impossible to get to that 100 happiness in the colonial era. In the colonial era you need to keep in mind that the happiness graph is plotted on a scale of 0-100. When you are earning money you can start spending some to keep your inhabitants happy. I recommend aiming for 120 inhabitants.ĭon’t forget to complete the revolutionaries support quests mentioned earlier. New immigrants tend to be revolutionaries so the bigger your population becomes, the lower the power of the loyalists. Step 3: Get more revolutionariesĬreate enough jobs so each ship will bring some immigrants. Make sure you keep extending your mandate when possible.

All you need to do is get approval above 50%. Gaining independenceĬlaiming independent is not as hard as it might sound. This will slowly shift the balance of power away from the loyalists. Obviously to claim independence it is best to choose the import of revolutionaries. Completing a quest for the revolutionaries generally presents you with the following reward options There will be another quest line active during the colonial era the revolutionary support. This can be explained by 50% of your population hating you (10/100) and 50% loving you (70/100) which would average 35%.Īt some point the game offers you the ability to actually kill some of the loyalists. Therefore if you double your islands population you are likely to end up with at least 35% support. New immigrants have no loyalty to the crown. The overall approval is therefore 10 of the 50 required. In this example there are 56 supporters with 10 approval (hate) and 4 revolutionaries that like El Presidente with approval 70. The revolutionaries support you as El Presidente and want independence. They want our island to stay under the influence of the Crown. The loyalists hate you and will always hate you. It is highly recommended to do this because one of the rewards is to extend your mandate for 12 months.ĭuring the Colonial era there are two conflicting factions the loyalists and the revolutionaries. For example the Crown will ask you to pay $5000 dollar. Each time you listen to such a request you will get a quest reward.Īfter a while you will also receive demands.

In Tropico 5 you will receive quests from the Crown asking you to build certain buildings. You can extend your mandate by keeping the Crown happy.
