Motivation:
Now VP is so stable, and AI bonuses less front-loaded, I find myself playing almost every game to the victory screen (or the defeat screen, man Immortal is hard)
It becomes apparent that Corporations as they currently stand determine, to a large part, the outcome of the game. Yet, you cannot reasonably control even which Corporation you Found.
For example, 10 Franchises of Giorgio Armeier gives you +20 Culture per Office (that is, per City) giving a double-digit percentage of your total Culture.
Meanwhile Civilized Jewelers on the same number of Franchises gives over 100% Great Person Rate AND 30% Golden Age Length.
These bonuses are unlike any other game system with the possible exception of the "quadratic scaling" buildings like Factory and Chaebol.
I've split up my proposal into 3 parts that I think can stand alone.
Proposal:
Add a new Corporation called Populi Medicine
Domination and Diplomatic design theme (see proposal II)
Resources are taken from the existing corporations: Ivory, Tobacco, Incense, Jade, Tea
Corporation Effects
Populi Medicine Office:
