We need more information about how the large empire penalty works. I am playing the insane map. I have 250% from artifacts, +1 Virtual World, +25% virtual world, +20% Populist Party, +50% Noble, +9 for staiudm and +3 for capital and I still am at a approval of 37%
Needs more common sense of how it works and if you are playing insane needs to be less of a penalty for having a large empire
