参见：Laws

The numbers in green refer to the number of alternative laws currently available to be enacted in that sub-category.

Economy laws define where the treasury's money comes from and how it can be spent.

Economic System is a crucial law group -- this governs whether the country operates on principles of mercantilism, isolationism, or free trade, among others.

Income Tax determines which pops should be taxed and what range of tax burden is appropriate. No income tax at all is of course an option, and legislation to such effect will make some pops both rich and happy! Poll taxation, or levying a fixed tax per head, is another option primarily used in less industrialized societies. (There are other avenues of taxation as well, but these are the ones driven by legislation.)

Finally, the player can choose what form the institutions of Colonization, Policing, Education System, and Health System will take in your country. For example, one can keep government spending under control by instituting charity hospitals, which have limited effect and boost the power of the clergy, or one could pass a public health insurance law which is costlier but can have a greater impact on the health of the masses.
