帝國

A galaxy populated by multiple empires

An Empire is a group of planets and star systems that are ruled by the same government and controlled by a single player (or AI). Empires may have a variety of governments such as a democracy, oligarchism, despotism or imperial rule.

Ethics are the most defining features of a space empire; they affect the behavior of AI empires, likely technologies, available policies and edicts, valid government types, the opinions of other empires, and - perhaps most importantly - provide the fuel for internal strife in large and diverse empires. Civics are the second-most defining features of a space empire; they affect the finer details of the empire's internal structure as well as having certain effects on the empire's behavior.

It should be noted that the name of the player empire and its government structure can always be changed in the government window.

Each empire starts with a basic setup that's modified by its origin, authority, civics, and species archetype.

Default home system

The default home systems deposits total 12-13  能量幣（Energy Credits）, 12-13  礦物（Minerals）, and 5-6  研究（Research） of up to two random types. The smaller deposits won't have mining or research stations built on them yet.

Unplayable origins

The following origins have no effects and are not available to player empires.

Origin	Source	Description
Elder Race	Fallen Empires	This civilization greatly predates the current generation of galactic powers. Eons of stagnation gradually reduced their empire to a mere shadow of what it once was.
Enlightened	Enlightened pre-FTL civilizations	The natural development of this civilization was greatly accelerated by the interference of another party, who helped them become a spacefaring culture.
Separatists	Rebel empires	This civilization came into being when it rebelled and seceded from another empire.
Khanate Successor	Horde successors	This civilization arose out of the ashes of the Great Khan's mighty empire.
Hegemon Subordinate	Empires generated by the  一方霸主（Hegemon） origin	This civilization established early contact with their immediate alien neighbors. Gradually, over the span of a century, they were subordinated to one of those neighbors, who masterminded the birth of an interstellar union with them as its leader.

Capital

 請幫助核對或更新這個段落，最近核對為3.3版本。

The capital is the ruling seat of an empire as well as the final destination for all its trade routes. An empire's capital can be moved once every 10 years for a cost of 250  影響力（Influence） if the empire is at peace. An empire's capital planet and system are marked by gold star corners on the system and galaxy maps.

The capital has its own world designation with the following effects.

Authority	Effects
Regular	穩定度（Stability） +5  舒適度（Amenities） +10  主流思潮吸引力（Governing Ethics Attraction） +100%
蜂巢思維（Hive Mind）	穩定度（Stability） +5 Amenities +10 Deviancy -20

Empire size

 請幫助核對或更新這個段落，最近核對為3.3版本。

Empire Size is a measure of an empire's expansion. It is increased by 10 for each colony, 1 for each system, district and pop and 2 for each owned Branch Office. Empire Size can be affected by the following:

Source	Empire Size
Courier Network / Limited Autonomy / Extensible Software tradition	-25% from systems and colonies
民營勘探者（Private Prospectors） civic	-33% from systems
一心多用（Divided Attention） civic	-50% from colonies
中央特權（Imperial Prerogative） ascension perk	-50% from colonies
機械智能（Machine Intelligence） authority	+50% from colonies
Modular Depots tradition	-25% from districts
建造模板（Construction Templates） technology	-10% from districts
特許經營（Franchising） civic	-25% from branch offices
Imperial Charter modifier	-25% from branch offices
Docile species trait	-10% per pop
流線協議（Streamlined Protocols） species trait	-10% per pop
桀驁不馴（Unruly） species trait	+10% per pop
高帶寬（High Bandwidth） species trait	+10% per pop
Stellar Culture Shock planet modifier	-50% per pop
極端和平主義（Fanatic Pacifist） ethic	-30% from pops
意志整合（Subsumed Will） civic	-20% from pops
空中下載升級（OTA Updates） civic	-20% from pops
和平主義（Pacifist） ethic	-15% from pops
機械智能（Machine Intelligence） authority	-15% from pops
自由燈塔（Beacon of Liberty） civic	-15% from pops
靈能理論（Psionic Theory） technology	-10% from pops
支配（Domination） tradition tree finish	-10% from pops
和諧（Harmony） tradition tree finish	-10% from pops
同調（Synchronicity） tradition tree finish	-10% from pops
上上善道（The Greater Good） The Greater Good resolution 4	-10% from pops
per Governor skill level	-2% per pop

Note that the "per pop" effects and the "from pops" are two different categories of size reduction. Both groups are additive within themselves, but multiplicative between each other. So pops with the  Docile trait with a level 1 governor in a  極端和平主義（Fanatic Pacifist） empire with  自由燈塔（Beacon of Liberty） will contribute the following to the empire size:

[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Size contribution} = \text{Base size contribution} \cdot (1 - \text{Per pop modifiers}) \cdot (1 - \text{From pop modifiers}) }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Size contribution} = 1 \cdot (1 - 0.10 - 0.02) \cdot (1 - 0.30 - 0.15) = 0.484 }[/math]

Each point the Empire Size above 100 increases tradition cost by +0.2% and technology cost by +0.1%. The penalty can be affected by the following authorities:

Authority	Effect
蜂巢思維（Hive Mind）	-25%
獨裁制（Dictatorial）	-10%
企業政府（Corporate）	+25%

Sector systems

 請幫助核對或更新這個段落，最近核對為3.3版本。

Sectors are administrative regions within an empire. Every empire will start with a core sector, named after the homeworld and extending up to four hyperlanes away from the capital. Any colonized planet more than four hyperlanes away from another sector capital can be selected to become the sector capital of a new sector, with the planet becoming marked by blue star corners on the system and galaxy maps. The new sector will extend up to four hyperlanes away from the sector capital. Wormholes and Gateways are not counted for this calculation. Each sector can have a Governor assigned to it.

All sectors, including the core sector, can be given a Sector Focus. Choosing a Sector Focus will make the sector develop itself automatically towards a given direction as long as it has resources, reducing micromanagement.

Energy credits and minerals can be added to a Shared Stockpile for all Sectors to use or given manually to each Sector. Resources transferred to sectors will be converted into a wildcard resource at a 1:1 ratio and it can be spent on planetary construction as though it were energy credits or minerals. Shared and Sector stockpiles are limited to the amount of energy credits you may store. Beyond that, it is wasted.

Relative power

Relative Power is a measure of how much empires are ahead of one another in terms of resource production, fleet power or researched technologies. A Relative Power of Superior/Inferior means that an empire has 50% more (1.5x) resource production, fleet power or researched technologies and a Relative Power of Overwhelming/ Pathetic means that an empire has 150% more (2.5x) resource production, fleet power or researched technologies.

Relative Power is split into three categories: Fleet Power, Economic Power and Technology Level.

Fleet Power: The combined fleet power of every owned fleet.

• +1 per 1 Fleet Power

Economic Power: A weighted sum of all monthly income, including income from trade agreements. Monthly spending is not part of this score. The various resources are weighted the same as their base market price (base energy price for 1 unit):

• +1 per basic resources
• +2 per  消費品（Consumer Goods）
• +4 per  合金（Alloys）
• +10 per common strategic resources
• +20 per rare strategic resources

Technology Level: 60 + the combined base Tech Cost of all researched technologies, divided by 100. Repeatables only count 0.33x as much as regular technologies.

• +60 Base Technology Level
• +0.01 per 1 base Tech Cost of all researched technologies, including repeatable technologies

The formula to calculate the overall power of an empire is: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Overall Power} = \text{Fleet Power} * 2 + \text{Economic Power} * 3 + \text{Technology Level} * 1 }[/math]

Victory score

 請幫助核對或更新這個段落，最近核對為3.3版本。

Victory score tallies an empire's total accomplishment. The empire that has the highest score when the Victory Year arrives is declared winner. The Victory Year is configurable and can be disabled altogether. An empire will always declare victory, if it's the only one that can do so. All players may continue the game session normally even after an empire declares victory and the victory is, in practical terms, of little concern.

The Victory Window shows a total score for each empire and its ranking, as well as a breakdown by category. The categories are as follows:

Economic Strength: +1 per 1 Economic Power based on Relative Power OR +5000 if the Empire has no economy.

Technology Level: 60 +0.25 per 1 Technology Level over 60 based on Relative Power

Number of Systems: +10 per system

Number of Colonies: +50 per colony

Number of Pops: +2 per pop, regardless of type

Subject Empires: +50% of a subject empire's score is given to the overlord

Federation: +10% of each other federation member's score is shared by all federation members

Crisis Ships Killed: +10 per crisis ship destroyed

Relics Collected: Each Relic grants a large amount of score. The score of each Relic is shown on the Relics page.
