Revolutions – Ethics and Civics

Stellaris Revolutions is a collection of mods to enhance the vanilla Stellaris experience. The focus is on the Culture-related aspects of the Empire creation and development, such as Ethics, Authorities, Civics, Traditions, Governments and Policies. The idea is to allow players more precise tuning of their Empire’s culture, by significantly increasing diversity of available options.

Each empire has 5 ethic points which can be spent on ethics. Each moderate ethic costs 1 point and each fanatic ethic costs 2 points. Gestalt Consciousness is the "true neutral" ethic for collective societies without individual agency; it costs 5 ethic points.

There are the 4 ethic vanilla axes present:

• The Authoritarian-Libertarian axis measures the amount of personal freedom that one would allow: "Libertarian" is defined as the belief that personal freedom should be maximized while "Authoritarian" is defined as the belief that authority should be obeyed.
• The Materialist-Spiritualist axis looks at whether the unknowns of the universe can be explained by science or the existence of something greater.
• The Militarist-Pacifist axis looks at whether the empire’s military should be used offensively or strictly defensively.
• The Xenophile-Xenophobe axis looks at whether alien species and cultures should be embraced or distrusted.

And these are expanded with the following 2 axes:

• The Competitive-Cooperative axis looks at the state of the economy. Cooperative societies focus on working together for the greater good while Competitive societies focus on becoming the best without regards of others.
• The Industrialist-Ecologist axis looks at the social attitude towards environmental issues.

All of this ethics have also been rebalanced. Every fanatic version also has a negative modifier.
