How about adding the possibility of importing grains that provide food bonuses? Currently in the geopolitical scenario, we have noticed a fierce dispute in the import of grains, European countries like Germany and France fighting fiercely to break the Brazilian monopoly in the export of soybeans and other essential foods, and China has been doing more and more maneuvers to devalue the Brazilian grains and with this to buy Brazilian food practically for free. So think about the possibility of trying in some way to reproduce these scenarios of economic disputes in civilization 6, it would be fun to see countries denouncing others to get lower prices for their grains. Agreements to import gold by shift in exchange for wheat, soybeans, corn or any other type of valuable and vital resource for any civilization that wants to be a power.
Food and agriculture have proven themselves throughout history as a STRATEGIC AND VITAL RESOURCE. The lack of food has always been a problem to be faced, the lack of food generates revolts and revolutions, this is how the communists came to power, through the stomach of the poor of France and Russia.
Lack of food also generated and continues to generate friction in the armed forces, desertions and riots in ships, cities or any other place where there is a lack of food. Today China is running out of time to feed its more than 1.3 BILLION HABITANTS, because they know that without food their regime will collapse like a sand castle.
And to achieve their goals the Chinese need to appeal for exports, since their country is punished by pests and disasters and by a climate not so good for agriculture. On the other hand, Brazil, the largest food power in the world, responsible for supplying food to more than 1.2 BILLION inhabitants all over the planet, using less than 50% of its agricultural capacity, boasts excess water, mineral resources, etc., thus becoming the holder of an absolute monopoly and difficult to overthrow in the production of grains and minerals. Since its country is located in an extremely blessed region, without catastrophes and with a lot of sun and rain, propitious for agriculture, being able to produce several harvests in the same year, something that not even the USA was able to approach, Brazil is a paradise for agribusiness. Besides being the richest country in the world in natural resources such as drinking water, minerals, etc. for this reason this great and rich nation has always been and now more than ever continues to be coveted by the great global powers (European, Chinese, North American, etc.).
