Hi
I actually have a lot of national decisions (as literature improvement, limit privileges of nobility, new medals and so on), most of witch reduce militantism and revolt risk.
Due to the fact that I don't actually have any serious revolt risk and militantism is not a big problem, is there any reason to use such decisions? do they have other effects? do they change my national attributes?
I'm asking because they cost money and I would not waste them.
Thank

some do - the education one gives you a percentage point on your average education. New medals gives you a NM boost and some more officers. Others are only really useful if you are trying to solve a problem - best thing to do is to stagger your use of them across a year so if militancy does start to appear you can take it down quickly.

I have a feeling the social security one may give you a population increase - but stand to be corrected on this

Some of them raise contentment as well (which can be needed in most games). As loki100 says, most are useful if you are trying to solve a problem. Keep them for emergencies, as you don't have to use them too often. If you get a financial crisis for example, you will see your contentment go down and your militancy go up, so you may want to keep a few for that (you are safe for 2 years after the last one).

That is great to know that eventhough some decisions might seem unnecessary, there is still a benefit of triggering them besides the immediate benefits (e.g. revolt reduction).
