You benefit from higher and more resiliant domestic support, however not all look upon you with envy, some have take to jealously and your nation is at risk from those who question it's values and seek to undermine them with words, rhetoric and bombs.
 
 
 
==The Dynamics of State==
 
 
===The Leadership===
 
 
Every nation has a person or group of people in control, they are in some ways, the personification of your control, the enablement of your directives. It is important during your writeup to define your leadership and it's goal, how it became the leadership, whether through free elections or through supression of freedoms. This is important because your domestic support and foreign relations will be initially defined by these policies, especially so if framed by a democratic election.
 
 
 
The leadership directs the nation of course and like any organisation, has strengths and weaknesses which you may define below.
 
You may take a total of 2 points of ability for free and another point for the cost of a negative in a field.
 
 
+Demagogue: The leadership has a vibrant speechwriting staff and an excellent orator. They can direct the argument with the appearance of conviction, understanding and sway people to their point of view.
 
 
+Diplomat: The leadership is apt at the art of diplomacy, carefully navigating the pitfalls of foreign policy. This generally results in a greater understanding of foreign nations and an ability to exercise considerably more influence than the norm.
 
 
+Media Savvy: The leadership may not have the best speechwriters, or the most skilled orator’s, but they are apt at spinning the situation to their advantage, ultizing the media to direct their message, they are less able than Demagogues to sway opinion on major issues, but are vastly more able to keep afloat In the day to day business of the nation.
 
 
+Strategically Aware: The Leadership is experienced, and/or talented in military affairs, they can influence and direct major strategy positively as well as count on the support of the military politically due to their probably extensive links with the establishment.
 
 
+Domestic Champion: The Leadership is well loved or feared at home, known to be proponents of a strong domestic agenda, this allows for greater interjection in affairs (such as strengthening the economy) and greater action to appease the populace and counter foreign agenda’s.
 
 
 
 
The leadership also gains X free points in military hardware, as leaders often need protection against terrorism and madmen.
 
 
===Popular Support===
 
This is a measure of the willingness of a population to support your policies and the general contentment in society. A combination of your domestic and foreign approval ratings informed by events and direction.
 
 
0-25: No more years
 
 
25-45: Time for Change
 
 
40-50: Indifference
 
 
50-75: 4 More years
 
 
75-100: Leader for Life
 
 
====Domestic Agenda====
 
 
This is an approval rating of your domestic agenda. Broadly speaking, this is affected by domestic spending on infrastructure, industry and wealth.
 
 
 
====Foreign Agenda====
 
 
This is approval rating of your foreign agenda. This is most significantly affected by conflict and how your populance percieves foreign powers and your relation with them. Supporting unpopular regimes is detrimental, though aiding those in need may be helpful if you have a compassionate society.
 
 
 
===Civil Order===
 
 
Civil Order is a different beast to popular support, though at first glance they may appear similiar. Authoritarian regimes can endure low popular support through enacting measures to ensure high civil order, while democratic regimes are easily toppled by poor civil order, but can maintain popular support more readily as they are less repressive.
 
 
 
0-20 Critical Civil Order: Extreme Civil disorder, national strikes or outright rebellion and riots.
 
 
20-40 Very Low Civil Order: Significant Civil disorder, wipespread protests or rebellious elements forming.
 
 
40-60 Low Civil Order: Minor civil disorder, ocassionally protests, unfriendly media  or dissident activity
 
 
60-80 Medium Civil Order: Indifferent, ocassional fringe civil disorder or usual levels of dissident activity
 
 
80-100 High Civil Order: Difficult to achieve in a democracy, public is orderly and obedient, dissidents quietly gulaged
 
 
 
===Draft===
 
 
Draft is bought in units of manpower, each manpower point costing the equivalent of 1000 people. In normal conditions, Draft costs one wealth unit under 1% of population, 5 wealth under 5% and 10 wealth under 10%. Above 10% each unit costs 100 wealth.

===The Post Economy===
 
 
Nanofabs lead to what was called, the post-economy, usually dependant on the posthumans it was never fully leased out or developed by humanity. It lead to a revolution in living standards, as the posthumans gladly provided the means for starvation and malnutrition to be eliminated, but continued to hold the reins for more complex requirements.
 
 
Posthuman Assembler gates can create everything from a flesh and bone baseline, to a fully automated starship. They require incredible amounts of energy and significant raw materials and many are limited by DRM system’s, which the posties used to control the flow of technology and materials to transhumanity.

Output: 100 post-industrial units <br>
 
 
 
Class IV: These assemblers are the largest and most sophisticated every given to transhumanity, used to produce large starship parts, spacestation construction components and other heavy duty and very large pieces of construction.<br>
 
 
Input: 100 Energy, 100 Metals <br>
