hehe.
I can answer some of these government questions too, since I made most of them.
Yes your mod was great for me ! And I've played on it more hours.
But I've changed some governments features (see my site for details). In summary, The (it's my preferred government form) Greco-roman republic is similar as republic except on two features:
- The Greco roman republic support 1 unit by town or city and 2 by metropolis. The legion concept: each city provided some legions cause of the roman nationality concept. You have to do your military service in legion to win your nationality or to have title and to become an judge, a prefect or to get another function.
- The Republic has an assimilation rate more important (10 for Republic and 2 for Greco-Roman Republic). Difference is in Republic nationality is more easy to win.
- none government form exceeds 3 in worker rate.
You can find all differences between governments forms on my site.
But I give some example here: (now integrated to civilopedia with definition of each government)
Revolutionary war: other name for anarchy.
Despotism: First governments forms.
Fundamentalism: Egypt ancient times, Israel ancient times, Arabian empire, Iran nowadays, (Israel nowadays?)
Feudalism: All European governments forms toward the year 1000.
Monarchy: France absolute monarchy, Austrian absolute monarchy, Prussia.
Soviet communism: USSR, China (before 90's).
Marxist communism: Paris in 1871 ("commune" government), Spain under war (1936), Ukraine during October revolution...
Techno-Marxist communism: Not yet. Sci-fi governments.
Social democracy: All USSR Republics sisters during the cold war.
Military dictatorship: Chile (under Pinochet), Iraq, some governments during the cold war (Nicaragua, Costa Rica), some Africans governments form, Japan's empire (1942), Pakistan nowadays...
Fascism: Italy and Germany between 1936 and 1945.
Corporatism: not yet. Cyberpunk possibility. But possible since the invention of the corporation concept. For me it is the corporations rule. Maybe USA today but I don't think...but Russia with Gazprom could enter in this new era (I hope someone know Gazprom!).
Capitalism: USA nowadays, England (XIX century)
Greco-Roman Republic: Greece and Roman Republic.
Republic: France Republic, Weimar Republic.
Democracy: Japan (nowadays), Suisse, USA modern time until 1975, all constitutional monarchy (democratic form), Korea (nowadays), Italy....
Empire: Chinese middle realm, Roman Empire, Charlemagne's empire, Charles Quint's empire, French Empire and British empire until the 60's.
Federation: USA at beginning (but now also but in the game it will be capitalism), EEC in few years?. Germany also.
Virtual Democracy: Not yet. Sci-fi governments.
For now I haven't add the propaganda resistance factor ( a little later). If you something that you think have to be removed or improved say it !
Sorry addition on february 23. : If I have made difference between Fascim and Military dictatorship it's because one keep its democratic form (fascim, Hitler was elected, Mussolini was called...) and after the fascim use terror to keep power. Military dictatorship is a gouvernment by one military man who have take power by force and keep it by army. So there's really difference. Spain after 1936 war was fascim or military dictatorship? I think it was military dictatorship but as I'm not Spanish...
