Merrick's Italy

Adds Italy as a new Civilization led by Victor Emmanuel II, with two personas available for different approaches.

Art and invention go hand in hand as you generate both Great Engineers and Great Artists to fuel the production output of your empire. Seek to spread your religion, and as each era passes, stack a powerful bonus to great person generation through the Golden Ages of not only your own empire but those of your neighbours.

Your Condottiere are mercenaries willing to fight for friendly nations in their wars of religion. Choose your declarations of friendship wisely and your religion will spread through war, even without your direct involvement.

The Piazza is the center of every Italian city. A hub for faith, art, and tourism. Place wisely between districts to produce more great people of any type, or place in strong tourist locations like beaches and ski resorts to create a hot spot for visitors to your culture.

• Generate +10% Great Engineer and Great Artist points per turn for every current and previous Golden Age experienced by Italy, or by other Civilizations while they were following Italy's Founded Religion.

Notes
This was perhaps one of the most complex mods I've created and I had to make certain design choices due to restrictions I encountered as I worked. Playtesting alone with all the intricacies of the design was time consuming and has taken up a lot of my time. I believe I've ironed out most bugs, but I would appreciate clear and concise feedback should anyone encounter any issues. Thank you!
