The fourth full version of "The Collapse", with new mechanics, added flavour and another lot of bug fixes!
Countries
-the german eastern protectorates no longer ask to be re-admitted into Germany, instead, Germany will have to issue the requests (relations between germany and the protectorates worsen on a refusal, and the protectorates are more prone to acceptance when in sphere or with a similar government form)
-Germany can no longer sustain occupation of the eastern protectorates, being prompted to release them after conquest
-Israel and the ashkenazi culture are now excluded from the decisions to form Germany
-Egypt has a new flag! (MAKE SURE TO DELETE THE MOD'S FLAG CACHE IN ORDER TO SEE IT, it's usually in Documents\Paradox Interactive\Victoria II\TheCollapse\gfx\flags, where you have to delete all files)
-Iraq and Syria now accept beduin pops
Diplomacy
-fascist dictatorships can no longer make normal puppets, and are forced to use make imperial protectorate instead
-make imperial protectorate can now be used on large states too

-liberating puppets now instantly reduces their prestige to zero
-a puppet's prestige is now capped at 700
-the AI is now less likely to spam the "meet with the internationale" decision
Politics
-suppressing socialist movements now gives more power to fascist blackshirts, and more support to reactionaries in the upper house
-fascist groups will now attempt to coup their countries when given enough support, marching on the country's capital
-fascists now no longer make monarchies fascist dictatorships, instead opting to change them into absolute monarchies with a fascist party in charge
-rich strata pops become more fascist when the lower strata pops are more militant
-conservatives are now even more popular in non-socialist countries
-conservatives will now attempt to roll back political and social reforms when militancy is low, and liberals will now try to roll back social reforms when militancy is low
-soldier pops are now less likely to be liberal and more likely to be vanguardist or fascist
-pan nationalist rebels should now actually try to form their national unions, instead of seaging down countries and then despawning

My pops are all unemployed, makes the game unplayable.
that's strange, were your factories open and subsidized? and what nation were you playing?
Not in my factories but my rgos.
The problem seems to be that there isn't enough demand for RGOs to justify hiring those pops. I will add this to the list of things to fix (i will either try to increase demand or i will reduce the percentage of farmers and labourers)
