政治視圖

The Radicalism of a Political Movement is based on its number of Radicals among its supporting Pops and the Clout of supporting Interest Groups whose Approval is [GetApprovalRatingFromValue(GetDefine('NPolitics','APPROVAL_THRESHOLD_ANGRY'))] or worse. A highly Radical Political Movement is less interested in solving issues via mundane politics, and will be able to start a Revolution sooner.

政治運動

The Support of a Political Movement is based on the Political Strength of its supporting Pops. A Political Movement with a high degree of Support increases the Enactment Success chance if you pursue the Law they desire, or reduces it if they oppose it. Should the Political Movement lead to a Revolution, Political Movement Support will determine how many States it will start with.

安撫

The degree of power a Pop, and consequently the Interest Groups it supports, have over the Country's politics. It is derived from its supporting Pops' Wealth. Pops who live in Unincorporated States have much less Political Strength, while Pops in the Capital State have more.

Pops distribute their Political Strength to the Interest Groups it supports proportionate to how many of its members support it. If an Interest Group is a member of a Party, they also gain Political Strength from the Votes that Party received in the last Election. An Interest Group's Clout is equal to their share of the Country's total Political Strength.

Some number of them are Literate, and they might have a number of either Loyalists or Radicals.

政治家

The net number of Individuals a Pop gains or loses over time is governed by its Birthrate and Mortality. Both metrics are governed by Standard of Living and modified by factors such as disease, dangerous working conditions, beneficial Institutions, and available living space.

人口增長率

Pops spend their income on Goods to fulfill their Needs. The higher their Wealth the more Goods it will purchase. Pops gain more diverse and luxurious Needs as their Wealth increases.

The inverse is also true: if the Pop cannot afford their Needs they will still purchase them, and the shortfall reduces their Wealth.

Radical Individuals within a Pop are disillusioned with the state of their Country. The presence of Radicals in a State contributes to Turmoil, and the Radicalism of Pops contribute to Political Movement Radicalism. The Approval of Interest Groups supported by Radical Pops will also be impacted.

Radicals are created continuously while a Pop is subjected to Discrimination or when their Standard of Living falls below their Minimum Expected Standard of Living, whenever a Pop's Standard of Living decreases, and due to decisions made during special events. Radicals are also created in Pops that support Political Movements whose demands go unfulfilled, and when Pops are fired from a Building's Workforce (particularly if they held Ownership Shares).

自給建築

A Subsidized Building is guaranteed by the Country's Government to be funded enough to always by able to pay at least the Subsidized Wage. If the building cannot pay its employees according to this rate or higher, and/or if its cost of buying Input Goods exceeds its Revenue from selling Output Goods, the Treasury will cover the difference.

Progress is made towards new Technologies through Innovation, which is primarily produced by University Buildings. In addition to progress from Innovation, Technologies may propagate from Countries who already have them to those who do not via Technology Spread.

The amount of progress required in a Technology to acquire it depends on its Era. If you have not yet acquired all Technologies from previous Eras, the amount required will increase further.

緊張度

Technology Eras are a rough classification of which time period a certain idea was first discovered or developed.

Era I inventions were well-known in many parts of the world prior to 1836.
Era II inventions are associated with the First Industrial Revolution (1836 to mid-19th century).
Era III is a period of evolution, stabilization, and standardization that runs until late 19th century.
Era IV corresponds with the Second Industrial Revolution around the turn of the century.
Era V inventions are transformative, modern ideas.

Technologies require more Innovation to discover the later Era it appears in. If you have not yet acquired all Technologies from previous Eras, the amount required will increase further.

地形

One Technology that you have not yet acquired from each category (Production, Military, and Society) is always spreading to you from Countries that have acquired them. The progress you get in spreading Technologies is randomized each week around a base value depending on your Country's Literacy. If no Country has invented a certain Technology yet it cannot spread to you, so you are more likely to acquire early Era Technologies from Technology Spread than later ones.

戰區

國庫

Trade Routes Buy Goods on one Market, transport it to another using Convoys (or overland, if the Markets are adjacent), and Sell the Goods there in order to make Revenue (from which Tariffs are subtracted) for the Trade Center managing it. In the process it creates Buy and Sell Orders on the two Markets, making it more expensive in one and less in the other. The volume of Goods moved will independently scale up and down to meet the Market conditions in both, employing more or less Workforce to match. Each Trade Route costs a fixed amount of Bureaucracy to maintain.

條約港

If a Market's pool of Goods available for Trade is depleted due to too many Trade partners, the Competitiveness of each competing Trade Route determines how large a share they get access to. A Trade Route's Competitiveness increases over time.

After the Election date, the number of total Votes each Party received will be fixed until the next Election, and will increase the Clout of any Interest Groups that are members of the Party.

戰爭

Wages paid to Pops by the Building they work in depends on several factors, the most prominent being the Pop's Profession and the Building's financial situation. If a Building's Balance allows for raising Wages at all, the Building will only do so if it needs to in order to attract more Pops to its Workforce. If a Building's Balance is negative, it will consider lowering Wages to return to profitability.

You can guarantee that the Workforce is paid a competitive Wage by Subsidizing the building. This will keep it afloat with funds from the Treasury if necessary.

厭戰度

Pops in the employ of a Country's Government Buildings and Military Buildings get paid Wages from the Treasury each week, according to the Government Wage and Military Wage respectively.

戰爭賠款

War Goals are the objectives a Country is fighting a War over. They are determined during the Diplomatic Play and are fixed after the War has begun. Each War Goal claimed in a Peace Deal decreases the chance the opponent will accept it, and increases the degree by which their War Support must be Exhausted before they will agree.
