The Evolving Legal Landscape
Each civilization possesses a unique legal framework, and as your nation progresses through the tech tree, you'll unlock a variety of innovative laws. These laws offer diverse benefits and represent the evolving legal landscape of your civilization.

I wonder if the AI will work in such a way that it will also use the laws that the player creates himself in the JSON file, and if so, which rights from one group will be selected most often by the AI?

Will the probability of selecting each law in the group be the same, or will each country strive to introduce the law that is unlocked last?

The AI will change its laws to the latest unlocked law

Dear Lukasz, what will we see about laws and reforms for tribes on start of scenario?

Will they have initial levels of reforms, or will tribes not have access to these mechanics at all until the creation of the state?

It depends on the technologies researched

No negatives to certain laws?

yes 😎

So in the modern day scenario, after unlocking all technologies, all countries will have the same laws😕

I think that laws should be different in countries, instead of being the same everywhere.

For example, in Iran women have limited rights, but in Europe they have all rights. Military service is compulsory in Israel and Korea, but not in Europe. The United States has different health care law than Europe.

I think it will limit the gameplay if every country strives for the same laws instead of choosing random ones

Laws should take time to be implemented, and not at the same speed in every province. Like laws would be more effective in capital and major cities, and less effective in towns. Laws could take more time in the Mid Ages than in Modern Time. So I propose to add law effectiveness. 

Some laws couldn't be implemented without consequences, like happiness effects, possible revolts, unrest and relations between countries.

Some already suggested to make laws ideology locked. An absolute monarchic nation couldn't adopt democratic laws

And wold be possible to have more than one law at once ?

Maybe not everyone would not understand it, but it's like having both Minted coins and Paper currency.

Yup, making laws get progressively better as a result of technology is incredibly constricting making variety not possible, and as you rightfully said it will end up with civilizations having the same exact laws with no diversity

Right,

and laws should take time to be implemented, and not at the same speed in every province. Like laws would be more effective in capital and major cities, and less effective in towns. Laws could take more time in the Mid Ages than in Modern Time. So I propose to add law effectiveness.

Its not really necessary to make it as complex, although that is an interesting concept for sure

The Power of Laws is evident in their ability to shape societies, protect individual rights, and maintain order. Laws serve as the foundation of governance, ensuring fairness, justice, and accountability. They provide a framework for resolving disputes and advancing collective goals. By upholding the rule of law, societies can thrive, fostering trust and stability. In essence, laws wield immense influence, guiding the course of human interactions and societal progress.

this should not happen. there should be variety because all AI will use the latest law regardless of their ideology. each law should have a configurable ideology chance in json and set eg fascist ideologies will have a 0% chance of taking pro-minority laws and communist laws will have 0% of taking feudal laws but not a 100% chance to take the freest law for variety.
