1 Sept – Ready for the Final Government Reform?

There are four options:


Political Absolutism – We increase our absolutism ratings (for later Eras)


Legislative Houses – We get the ability to pass more policies (polices are those things I can pass from combining multiple Ideas)


Become a Republic – We lose 3 government reforms

We gain:

+1 Diplomat
+1 Military leader without upkeep
+10 States allowed


And we have an effect called “Republican Cultural Sufferance” and for non-accepted cultures we get bonuses and it won’t be as bad for those provinces.


And we become a Republic, and lose heirs and Royal Marriages and get a new elected leader every 4 years

Become a Theocracy – We lose 6 government reforms, don’t get the Cultural Sufferance buff, but we have the same benefits from the Republic with states and such



Given the history of Athens, can I chose anything other than Republic?

I choose for us to be an Oligarchy

Republicanism as we really embrace our Republican nature

I choose Sortition so we will have a lottery among qualified candidates to choose the leader – this was the primary tool for choosing in ancient Athens as it removes factionalism




Admin Divisions for +5 states

We were just put on the Republic slider of government reform and we made some choices.

It looks like my states remained the same as I moved up the ladder. So I could have capped myself, but I instead choose to ease to Republic. But now I have more reform choices coming.
