A country's government defines its specialization, as determined by the bonuses and penalties
assigned to it.
Overview
Your country's government determines its specialty. When first created, every country is a Monarchy
Changing Governments
How To Change The Government
The government may be changed by entering the manage menu on the left hand side
while logged into the game.
Within this menu is a radio button section with a range of governments. Simply
select one of the forms and click on the button "start Revolution".
Effects Of Changing Government
If your current government is a Monarchy then there is no penalty for
changing to another form.
When changing from any other form of government, there is a loss incurred to your countries
resources during the change.
This loss is a percentage of all military, technology and buildings. Starting at
14%, this number increases based on your net worth.
