Conditions for Civil War

Basically I just want to know what factors are involved in making your empire split in two. How would one go about intentionally making it more likely that a division would come about? I just want to know because it is something I have seen happen to the AI, but never experienced myself; and it seems like something that would make the game more challenging and fun.

I am playing Dread Lords 1.3 if that matters any.

Your best bet is to be an evil civ, and to make your people as unhappy as possible, by using taxes, over population, and lackor morale buildings. The problem with this is that it wrecks your economy. I actaully tried this once, wrecked my economy (got the civil war though), but still managed to win on a large or a gigantic galaxy despite teh being massivly in debt and having no military. Details of it can be found here. WWW Link

Thanks for the info.  

One last question: Do you have to be evil for the split to happen? I only ask because I just like to play neutral, but would still like to deal with a civil war.
