you only need to do 4 out of 6 for me I focused on Bureaucracy > Urbanize > Army > Seperatist

for opening moves improve relations with Austria, Russia, and the UK (not a garantee but it helps in keeping them from declaring on you) Kick Local governers from government supress them and replace with industrialists with the intelligent ones.

Then try to pass Appointed Bureaucrats ASAP as soon as it gives you a negative Enactment chance reset it right away (if it goes lower than the base chance). research romanticism to unlock Agrarian economic reform then research currency standard to unlock the tax law (i forgot what's it called) as you wait for the for the laws to pass go build up on every province to at least get to urban level one. the other to entries are pretty much a give away the separatist and armed reform. The separatist one I never got any pop above 90% so that's a give away. as for the army one don't build any barracks till you finish the urbanize reform keep your units as irregular troops for less upkeep and when you can field 250 troops just change them to line infantry and you're done.

What about the other 2 journal entries?

for education I never tried since it's expensive and only serves to bog you down in the early game better use that money to urbanize which enriches you faster and invest in education later up.

as for conquest you need at least 2 wars to take all the provinces you need wars are expensive and RNG can fuck you over if the UK,Austra, or Russia decides to help Eygpt that's a restart.
