Easy "... But To Take Part" achievement
Build any type of power plant, a Stadium (Modern Times required), then issue the "Host the Olympics" edict.
Easy "Everlasting Colony" achievement
You cannot declare your independence. Do this early, while still a colony. Complete missions to earn mandate extensions until "Everlasting Colony" is earned.
Easy "For Science!" achievement
Begin a sandbox game with unlimited money under the easy difficulty setting in the Modern Era. Build the maximum number of Science Labs, Colleges, and Observatories then fully staff them. Search for Inventors in your population by using the "Census" edict. You can also use your Spy Academy to steal technology from other superpowers, but this may not be reliable. Build Power Plants to provide enough power to the Science Lab.
Construct five Embassies and invite all foreign powers to each one. Note: This can be paired with the "For Science!" trophy.
Easy "Greasing Palms" achievement
Faction leaders can be found through the game menu or by browsing your city. They will have a blue square above their heads. Select "Bribe". The amount of money required will depend on how much influence the leader has and the weight of the faction.
Easy "Let Them Eat Cake" achievement
Uprisings occur when your people are dissatisfied. Have a low approval rate, low happiness, and a constitution not in line with the majority. Killing faction leaders will speed the process. To survive an uprising, several army bases and barracks will be needed. Upgrade them if possible. Make sure you have high loyalty with your army. High wages will help accomplish this. Note: This can be earned with "Think tank".
Easy "Middle Manager Of The Revolution" achievement
Some of your family members may be helpful. The easiest way to gain managers is to issue the "Census" edict. It will find managing skills among ordinary citizens and can easily result in fifteen managers over time.
Easy "Mirror, Mirror On The Wall" achievement
Select the icon to access to your family on the lower bar. Choose family member then change his or her appearance.
Easy "Overqualified" achievement
Consider doing this over five missions due to the cooldown for each upgrade of a family member. Access your family by using the icon in the lower bar. Select a family member, then select "Upgrade". The upgrades will cost $10,000, $20,000, $30,000, and $40,000 from your Swiss bank account funds.
Easy "Presidente's Seven" achievement
Family members will appear occasionally during missions. For example, you may get the event "Presidente cheated on his wife, you can either choose to recognize a new heir or not". The first option will add a member to your family. You should be able to add seven new family members by the end of the main campaign.
Easy "Putsch and Judy" achievement
Do not have an army that is too powerful. Consider only having a single barracks. You have to defeat them with your palace guards. Preferably, upgrade them to death squad. Pay them low wages to lower their loyalty. Then, issue a kill order on the faction leader. This will inevitably lead to a military coup.
Easy "Retro-futurism" achievement
Start a sandbox game with unlimited money under the low difficulty setting in the Cold War Era. Build a dozen Libraries and fully staff them. Build Observatories and Colleges and also fully staff them. During this time, use the "Census" edict to find inventors, who will provide RP points.
