== Player nations ==
== Player nations ==
A player Nation must be ruled by a member of the same dynasty as the Nation's founder. If the Nation's leader dies without a Heir the game ends.
There are thirteen major Nations present in Old World, seven in the base game, and six added with various DLCs.  The additions are:  The Hatti (Heroes of the Aegean), Kush (Pharaohs of the Nile), Aksum (Wrath of Gods), Maurya, Tamilakam, and the Yuezhi (Empires of the Indus). The Archetype of the starting Nation Leader can be changed in the map settings and the class of each family can be randomized as well.

== Laws ==
== Succession ==
[[File:Laws screen.png|thumb|300px|The Laws tab]]
Once a Nation Leader dies, its Heir becomes the new Nation Leader. If the Nation doesn't have a heir when the Nation Leader dies the game ends. Which child becomes Heir depends on the Succession Law. The Heir can also be chosen manually via a character action, but this carries a penalty of [[File:YIELD LEGITIMACY.png|25px]] 10 Legitimacy. There are 5 possible Succession Laws, with the starting one being decided in the new game settings. Changing Succession Law initially costs 100 [[File:YIELD CIVICS.png|25px]] Civics, and the cost increases by 50 for each subsequent change.
Laws provide a permanent bonus to a Nation. They come in two mutually-exclusive groups and five levels of penalties. The Laws button will glow when there is a group without any active law.

=== Medium Upkeep Laws ===
== Families ==
Medium Upkeep Laws cost 400 [[File:YIELD CIVICS.png|25px]] Civics to pass and have medium yearly costs.
Families are the leading clans within a Nation that control its cities, with different dispositions and conflicting interests. Their preferences determine what Ambitions a Nation Leader can pursue. The Opinion that a family has towards its Nation's Leader can trigger various events. Each Nation has 4 Families, which may belong to one of 10 classes. The first City founded for a Family will be the Family Seat. Only 3 Families may be used by each Nation.
{| class="wikitable sortable"
 
! Law 1 !! Law 2 !! Required technology
Each Family will have two preferred luxury resources. Each one of their cities that doesn't have the luxury resource will decrease the Family's Opinion by 10. In addition, if a Family has fewer cities than the other Families it will suffer an Opinion penalty.

== Tribes ==
Tribes occupy certain City Sites at the start of the game. Tribes can be converted to a Religion and tribe characters can intermarry with Nation characters. Nations can conduct diplomacy with tribes.
Tribes that aren't allied with any Nation will eventually spawn a raiders army. Raiders are always at War with all Nations and will attack the nearest City. How far raiders are willing to travel depends on the game difficulty.
== Barbarians ==
Barbarians occupy certain City Sites at the start of the game. They are always at War with all Nations and have to be defeated to claim the City Site.

Latest revision as of 18:30, 29 September 2026

Nations are the major states that are vying for Victory in Old World.

Player nations

There are thirteen major Nations present in Old World, seven in the base game, and six added with various DLCs. The additions are: The Hatti (Heroes of the Aegean), Kush (Pharaohs of the Nile), Aksum (Wrath of Gods), Maurya, Tamilakam, and the Yuezhi (Empires of the Indus). The Archetype of the starting Nation Leader can be changed in the map settings and the class of each family can be randomized as well.

Succession

Once a Nation Leader dies, its Heir becomes the new Nation Leader. If the Nation doesn't have a heir when the Nation Leader dies the game ends. Which child becomes Heir depends on the Succession Law. The Heir can also be chosen manually via a character action, but this carries a penalty of 10 Legitimacy. There are 5 possible Succession Laws, with the starting one being decided in the new game settings. Changing Succession Law initially costs 100 Civics, and the cost increases by 50 for each subsequent change.

Succession Law Heir
Primogeniture Oldest child
Ultimogeniture Youngest child
Lateral Siblings before children
Dynastic Oldest character with a direct line to the Nation's Founder
Seniority Oldest dynasty member

Families

Families are the leading clans within a Nation that control its cities, with different dispositions and conflicting interests. Their preferences determine what Ambitions a Nation Leader can pursue. The Opinion that a family has towards its Nation's Leader can trigger various events. Each Nation has 4 Families, which may belong to one of 10 classes. The first City founded for a Family will be the Family Seat. Only 3 Families may be used by each Nation.

Each Family will have two preferred luxury resources. Each one of their cities that doesn't have the luxury resource will decrease the Family's Opinion by 10. In addition, if a Family has fewer cities than the other Families it will suffer an Opinion penalty.
