How do I avoid getting oligarchy in power?
Every time I try a reformist route I eventually get an oligarchy in power. How does the oligarchy mechanic work in general, and how do I keep it low?

From experience, an oligarchy will appear if you don't have maximum state mechanism and MSS investment, if your corruption is high (I believe beyond 25), welfare is stagnant and you don't have a considerable amount of money on reserves. Avoiding making an agreement with the triads or syndicates after you get the Hong Kong and Macau agreements helps against corruption (having early friendship with the US will help you against the UK and Portugal breaking the agreements). Having an isolationist policy also helps, since you are spending all your money in China. By considering all of this things, an oligarchy can be avoided even if you go full liberal with a minimum regulation economy.

That makes sense, I'll try it, thanks!
