Three New Idea Groups

This mod adds three new generic idea groups, selectable by any nation, to the game:

- Patronage Ideas, focussing on architecture, the arts and government interaction with the general population.

- Sovereignty Ideas, focussing on asserting your position as an independent nation on the global stage.

- Logistics Ideas, focussing on the movement of goods and people, particularly the military.

This mod contains three new idea groups, fully equipped with policies and events. It does not change any existing ideas groups, policies or events.

I'll leave you to discover the events and policies.


Known tidbits:
Patronage is listed twice in policy tooltips. This is unavoidable.
AI is not a fan of the "Global Threat" event.
Asia tends to embrace the Renaissance a bit sooner.

Note: This mod will affect institutions due to the Patronage idea group giving Renaissance spread.
