Type of Government, Dynamic Government

[Wayne23lololh 1,645]

Hello, 

I hope that everyone has a good day. Many people suggested making governments a more detailed feature in the game. For now, governments could be changed by clicking to another government, and paying some coins and legacy points. It is too easy and "unrealistic" for a strategic game, even if it must stay simple.

The idea, to not make this too complicated, is to make governments have an assembly of several "specific laws" that I would call "Constitution" that will include, Political Entity (previously called Government in one of my previous topic), Government Type and its Subordinate.

Firstly, the government interface doesn't change too much, except there are bonus and requirement buttons. The example is for the Netherlands, is a Democratic Republic (I know it's a Monarchy):

Now I will explain how the constitution will work aside from laws. The constitution will characterize the country by a set of "articles" that will define the country by Political Entity, Government and its Subordinates.

Here's all its combinations :

Republic

Government Type + Subordinate	Government
Republic + Classical	Classical Republic
Republic + Democracy	Democratic Republic
Republic + Autocracy	Autocratic Republic
Republic + Socialism	Socialist Republic
Republic + Parliamentarism	Parliamentary Republic
Republic + Presidentialism	Presidential Republic
Republic + Merchantism	Merchant Republic

 

Monarchy

 

Monarchy + Absolutism	Absolute Monarchy
Monarchy + Constitutionalism	Constitutional Monarchy
Monarchy + Feudelism	Feodal Monarchy
Monarchy + Electivism	Elective Monarchy
Monarchy + Totalitarian Constitutionalism	Totalitarian Constitutional Monarchy

Dictatorship

Dictatoship + Totalitarianism	Totalitarian Dictatorship
Dictatoship + Fascism	Fascist Dictatorship
Dictatoship + National Socialism	National Socialist Dictatorship
Dictatoship + Proletarianism	Communist State
Dictatoship + Despotism	Despotic State

 

Unique Government

 

Theocracy	Theocratic State
Horde	Horde
Tribalism	Tribe
City State	City State

 

 

Political Entity will define whatever if the country is Unitary, Federal or Confederal. Already talked about in Centralization and Decentralization. But this is separate from the two others to form a government.

The country will be characterized by the government. There are 4 right now : Republic, Monarchy, Dictatorship, and Unique governments. 

The following subordinates, will precise the type of government, I can't say that it's ideologies, because there are a mix of the two.

Now, here are the different options for Monarchy, Dictatorship, and Unique Governments :

Dutch Republic : Democratic Republic

United Kingdom : Constitutional monarchy

German Reich : National Socialist Dictatorship

Papal State : Theocratic State

Here's bonus for each government :

To change the government, there are 2 ways. The fist one is to change by reforms, a peaceful way, but with a risk of leader assassination (ex : 60%).

The second one, more interesting, is to lead a revolutionist group. We need first to choose the type of government (ex : republic), then choose the subordinate (ex : democracy) :

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The second feature is dynamic government types. In AoH2, monarchy changes when we upgrade rank, so adding it in AoH3 will economize types of government. I would be applying for Absolute monarchy, Tribal and Theocracy (Religious republic too). Manpower numbers will vary according to the era. This Feature is automatic, with some exceptions, I will say when.

 

Firstly, Absolute monarchy would be divided in several level, that will be locked by the civilization rank and the number of province.

Europe/Christian :

 

Monarchy Level	Monarch name	Conditions	Bonus
Empire	Emperor	Over 200 province  Rank in top 5%    Must be proclaimed when all conditions are archived.    Legacy points cost : 50  Gold Cost : 50	+700000 manpower  -10% Army Maintenance  +3.5 Legacy Points  +5 Prestiges  +15% Tax Income  +10% Subject Tribute Income  +5% agressive expansion
Kingdom	King	Over 60 province  Rank in top 15%	+40000 manpower  -7% Army Maintenance  +3.5 Legacy Points  +5 Prestiges  +15% Tax Income
Principality	Prince	Rank in top 20%	+15000 manpower  -5% Army Maintenance  +3.5 Legacy Points  +5 Prestiges  +15% Tax Income
Grand Duchy	Grand Duke	Over 30 province Rank in top 30%	+8000 manpower  -3% Army Maintenance  +3.5 Legacy Points  +5 Prestiges  +15% Tax Income
Duchy	Duke	Over 8 province  Rank in top 65%	+2000 manpower  +3.5 Legacy Points  +0.3 Prestiges  +15% Tax Income
Count	Count

For Europeans, it would be available only from 800 to 1900 (approximately), except for Empires and Kingdoms before 800 and only Kingdoms after 2000. When a civilization upgrades, the country can’t downgrade until the leader dies or change, except for empire and kingdom.  For the case of empire, it must be proclaimed by the kingdom. When all conditions are archived, an event will pop up: 

Title:  Become an Empire

Simple Description: The country attains its full potential; it could be even more efficient if our king becomes an emperor! Should the country accept? 

Triggers: in the board 

Outcome 1: Yes, for our country greatness! (list of bonuses in the board) 

Outcome 2:  No (Nothing bad) 

 

Arab/Sunni Islam :

These are for Sunni Islamic Sultanates, and the Caliphate is for the strongest Islamic Sultanate, owning Mecca and Medina, giving several bonuses. The Caliphate could lose its title if it loses the ownership of Mecca and Medina, and the new owner of these cities will become the caliphate.

Caliphate	Caliph	Strongest Sunni Muslim country                      or/and Possess holy cities (Mecca, Medina)    When all conditions are reunited, an even will pop up, with no right to decline.	+700000 manpower  -10% Army Maintenance  +4 Legacy Points  +7 Prestiges  +5% Tax Income  +3% Subject Tribute Income  +15% religion conversion  +30 relations with all Shiite countries  -3% agressive expansion
Sultanate	Sultan	Rank in Top 80%  Over 20 provinces	+50000 manpower  -5% Army Maintenance  +1.5 Legacy Points  +2 Prestiges  +5% Tax Income
Emirate	Emir		+2000 Manpower  +3% Economic Bonus

Here's the event for the Caliphate:

Title:  Caliphate Title

Simple Description: Mecca and Medina are now ours, the title of Caliphate is now granted !

Triggers: in the board 

Outcome 1: OK (list of bonuses on the board, the Sultanate becomes a Caliphate) 

 

Persian/Shia : Shahdom

Shahdom

Shah

Capital located in Persia   Be a Monarchy

+10000 manpower  -7% Army Maintenance  +2 Legacy Points  +2 Prestiges  +5% Tax Income

 

Since there is Daimyo, there must be Shogunate, because Daimyos are vassals of Shogunate :

Shogunate (Later Empire)	Shogun (later Emperor)	Capital : Tokyo  Rank in top 20%	+40000 manpower  +3.5 Legacy Points  +5 Prestiges  +15% Tax Income  +5% Stability
Daimyo	Daimyo	Vassal of a Shogunate	+1000 manpower  +1 Prestiges

Here, Tokugawa should be a Shogunate, and its vassals, Daimyos.

 

2. Tribal Kingdom will be available only for those religions: 

Animism, Fetishism, Totemism, etc... 

Tribe	Chieftain		Construction Cost +25%  Construction Time +25%  Maximum   Manpower   –5000  Maximum number of Loans –1  Units Attack –2  Units Defense -2
Tribal Kingdom	Tribal King	Rank in the top 80%    An evolution of tribe, with lighted malus	Construction Cost +10%  Construction Time +10%  Maximum   Manpower   –2000  Units Attack –1  Units Defense -1

  

3. For theocracy, There could be for every religion, but it will take too much time for me to quote all of them.

Theocracy (base)	Theocrat	Theocracy	+20000 manpower  -10% Army Maintenance  +4 Legacy Points  +7 Prestiges  +5% Tax Income  +3% Subject Tribute Income  +15% religion conversion  +30 relations with all Shiite countries  -3% agressive expansion
Papacy	Pope	Own Rome   Religion : Catholic + Theocracy	+40000 manpower  -5% Army Maintenance  +4 Legacy Points  +7 Prestiges  +5% Tax Income  +3% Subject Tribute Income  +15% religion conversion  +30 relations with all Catholic countries  -5% agressive expansion  Call to Crusades : 5
Imamate	Imam	Religion : Shia Islam + Theocracy	+10000 manpower  +2 Legacy Points  +2 Prestiges  +5% Tax Income  +10% religion conversion  +30 relations with all Shia countries

 

Religious Republic will be differentiated by main country’s belief, so instead of “Theocratic republic of Iran”, there will be “Islamic Republic of Iran”. This feature won’t work for different sect, so Sunni, Shia, Ibadi will be grouped, same with another sects. 

Finally, make possible special civilization attributions, like Khedivate for Egypt, Archduchy for Austria, etc...

 

That's it, the Trilogy.

All correction and improvement are granted, there could be some omissions.

Amazing. If this system also supports internal customization from the community and modders, then it will be great.

P.S. Comrade, you had an idea to visually work out something similar, but in relation to different political/economic/legal/religious, etc. organizations? Otherwise, having only HRE is somehow meager)

I was think about to set laws according to different government, but it could be like this later by updates, or it will be too complicated to add and maybe be discouraging for Mr.Łukasz.

Here's what I will change for types of ideology :

• Make A tab dividing ideologies, without laws
• Ideologies should be changed only by a set of already present laws, these are "conditions"
• Remove the constitution thing, not everyone will understand
• Only the ideologies unlocked will be shown in the tab for immersion (not feudalism in 2024)
