Dynastic Bloodlines

Rulers

A ruler can have nine different traits that affect your empire during their reign, both globally and locally. These will also greatly affect the behavior of the AI if the game option for it is enabled at game setup.

A ruler's trait brings several powerful bonuses to your empire:

• Avid Intellectualism - Extra science at the cost of faith.
  
• Religious Fervor - Extra faith at the cost of science.
  
• Patronage of the Arts - Extra culture at the cost of gold.
  
• Martial Prowess - Boosts production of land military units and city defense.
  
• Administrative Talent - Extra city growth at the cost of gold.
  
• Mastery of Commerce - Extra gold and land trade routes.
  
• Silver Tongue - Extra influence with City-States and World Congress delegates.
  
• Patronage of Exploration - Boosts production of naval units and sea trade routes.
  
• Questionable Competence - General penalties in most areas.

Garrisoning the ruler unit in a City will provide it with local bonuses.

Heirs

To secure the dynastic bloodline, an heir will hopefully have already been born before the death of the old monarch.

Otherwise, a regency council will be instated and a succession war will occur as every civilization a player has a royal marriage with will attempt to enforce their claim to the vacant throne.

On coronation, an heir will succeed the previous ruler and gain one of the nine traits.

Royal Marriages

A Royal Marriage is celebrated with each Declaration of Friendship signed between two players. This increases the chances of an heir being born but also gives both parties a claim to the other's territories.

Ideology

Upon picking an Ideology, the constraints of carrying on the dynastic bloodline no longer apply as new leaders stop being picked hereditarily. Instead, a President, Chairman or Dictator will be elected or otherwise rise to power and no more heirs will be born.
