Why is it some cities revolt at size three even with three units stationed in the city?

At Deity level, your first cities start with 1 content citizen. However, after a certain number of cities, (and in some cases disctance from the capital is also a factor) you lose this happy citizen, and the first citizen is a red face. This number depends on government type.
From memory, the number is 8 at Despostism, 12 under Monarchy, 16 Under Republic.
This is all well documented somewhere in the Forums, check out the APolyton Great Library.
When founding these cities, you can send out a warrior with the city, or put up with very slow unit building!
Captured cities seem to get a black angry man as the firsst citizen.

up to x - first citizen content
x+1 to 2x - first citizen red (somewhere - not necessarily in the new city)
2x+1 to 3x - first citizen a pirate (somewhere)
3x+1 on first citizen a pirate everywhere

Close, but not exactly right, from my experience. From x+1 to 2x, you will get an unhappy first citizen in two (random) cities for each new city you build. So at 2x, you'll have an unhappy first citizen in all cities. Same thing from 2x+1 to 4x, until the first citizen in every city wears a black hat. Building beyond 4x creates a second pirate in random cities. Note that two luxuries, Hanging Gardens, or an elvis will convert a pirate to a happy (rather than unhappy, or even merely content) citizen. Building beyond 8x cities will cause "super pirates" to start appearing. Super pirates are graphically indistinguishable from regular pirates, but need extra pacification. A temple and two garrison troops will change two pirates to content, but the city will revolt if one of them changes to a super pirate.
At Deity, x is 6 for Monarchy on a small (and, I think, medium) map, and 8 on a large map.
This neat mathematical formula applies only if all of your cities are smaller than size 3 - at some level of population, a single large city will count as two or more small cities. Thus the reports of population growth causing unrest, without any additional cities being built.
Edited to remove references to non-existant "super pirates". What was I thinking?
Edited again to restore super pirates. They do exist, but come later than I originally remembered.

Plan your tech path so your goal techs won't disappear. See oedo's unfinished.
