Slave unemployment causes instability?

[Dovahkiin]

Okay so I have never really played the bad guy but I was getting a shot to check out nemesis. I conquered Amy neighboring Empire. Their pops are now slaves. However there's not enough jobs for slaves so they're all upset because they're unemployed. That's me doesn't make a lot of sense but what am I supposed to do about it. Which planet has about 6 unemployed pops and it will take long time to get that many menial jobs.

Unemployed slave = not fed slave. Are you still wandering why are they unhappy?

Slave unhappiness is countered by having free pops with high happiness. Move a few extra pop over if the slaves are causing your planet's stability to dip too low - this is a good idea even if your own pops have low habitability on the planet.

Ideally you want to stay above 40 Stability, since that's when the Slave Revolt Event Chain can happen.

You can also use Commercial Zones to get them into employment quickly. There are probably a few Specialist Buildings that you can't work anyway with your current pops. You'll probably want to replace them later, but they are a good option if you can't get stability up otherwise.

If you can't get them jobs anytime soon then you can at least set them to domestic servitude so they do something but it's a pretty inefficient way to get amenities.

it's also a slave with enough time and energy to cause trouble

Idle hands are the devil's workshop. This is why I prefer Domestic Servitude. Any slaves that don't have a job become Servants, and don't get to be bored.

Why can't I just feed my prisoners without jobs?
I know there are (currently) no jobs for them, but those are being build as we speak...

Guess domestic servitude it is for them... :P

That is not intuitive. Have plenty of food.

OK, this actually makes sense
