{{Version|3.1}}
{{Technav}}
''{{iconify|Society}} research'' area is composed mainly of the fields: {{iconify|Biology|21px}}, {{iconify|Military Theory|21px}}, {{iconify|New Worlds|21px}} and {{iconify|Statecraft|21px}}. It also includes, to a lesser extent, the {{iconify|Psionics|21px}} field.

The area provides access to several key points, including: terraforming capabilities, strategic resources reveal, uplift capabilities, genetic modification capabilities, new armies, improved food and unity production, and more.

== Table usage ==
'''Color indicators:''' {{tech|start|Starter}} , {{tech|acquire|Acquisition}} , {{tech|rare|Rare}} , {{tech|danger|Dangerous}} , {{tech|repeat|Repeatable}} .

'''Notes:'''
# The table shows the default names/icons of techs. Flavor entry is displayed if accompanied by a change to effects/requirements.
# If a tech has been available as a research option in the as part of the last choice then its (total) weight will be '''halved''' in the coming choice.
# The table denotes the ''base cost'' of a tech. Actual in-game tech cost will scale with the empire's size (number of colonized planets and population).
# '''To research techs of higher tiers it is first needed to acquire 6 techs of the preceding tier.'''
# Sorting the table by ''tiers'' will place all {{tech|start|Starter}} tech at the top and {{tech|repeat|Repeatable}} end-game tech at the bottom.
# Most icons also double as links. For more information about an unlocked effect (buildings, components, etc.) click on the accompanying icon.

== Biology ==
{{SVersion|3.1}}
The {{iconify|Biology}} tech tree focuses on {{iconify|Food}} production, genetic modification and unlocking armies.
