29 new World Wonders for Vox Populi:
- Each Policy Branch gets an additional alternative Wonder when finished, but they are mutually exclusive. You have to choose which one you want to build.
- Each Ideology unlocks 2 additional alternative Wonders when chosen, and same as above - they are mutually exclusive. You have to choose which one is most interesting to you as they all affect different areas of your game.
- A new Wonder for Holy City. Those are also mutually exclusive. So, each Holy City might get a unique Wonder for its religion.
- 12 standalone Wonders with unique bonuses and often unique requirements, like Single Tile Island for Mont Saint-Michel.
- You can't build them wherever you want - all Wonders have requirements for location, some very unique. Also existing Wonders got some too, for better balance.
