法律

Laws can be enacted to give you some bonuses. With the Republic government type, you will first need to let the Senate vote on the law first. Even if the Senate doesn't support the law, you can still force it through, although you will gain some tyranny. You will need 250 Oratory Power to pass a law.

Types of Laws

This list is incomplete and is subject to change.

Each type of government has its own set of laws.

Monarchy

Succession Laws

Law Name	Effects	Desc
Agnatic Primogeniture	Eldest male child of the ruler is the primary heir. Women are excluded.	Agnatic succession dictates that the eldest male child always inherits the throne. This is a simple and ancient system, but can often result in young monarchs, bloody politics, and a lack of viable successors.
Agnatic-Cognatic Primogeniture	Same as Agnatic Primogeniture, but women are allowed to inherit if there is no male in the line of succession.	The principle of cognatic succession, is to allow female children of a monarch to succeed to the throne if there are no valid male heirs. This can affect the perceived legitimacy of a dynasty, but will greatly decrease the chances of a failed succession.
Agnatic Seniority	The brothers of the ruler have priority before the ruler's sons.	Agnatic Seniority is rarer form of patrilineal succession, in which the reigning monarch's younger brothers are higher in the order of succession than his sons. This can often result in huge webs of rivalry and myriad claimants to the throne.
Familial Marriage	The eldest child of the ruler, no matter its gender, will be the heir. Sibling marriage is allowed.	In this manner of succession, the eldest child of the ruler will be the primary heir, regardless of gender. In order to secure a strong, legitimate bloodline, however, it becomes commonplace for royal siblings to intermarry, thus avoiding any chance for the lineage to be sullied.

Maritime Laws

Law Name	Effects	Desc
Slave Draft	Navy Morale Recovery: +5%	Crewing our fleet solely with slaves, relieves the burden of paying free men. Additionally, slaves seem to perform much better with the threat of execution.
Professional Oarsmen	Morale of Navies: +10% National Tax: -5%	While slaves make good menial labor, crewing our vessels with paid laborers ensures that we will always have the highest quality crews, no matter the cost.
Non-Interference Edict	National Commerce Income: +20% Pirate Spawn Chance: +20%	The seas bring fortune, as well as misery. By declaring that our state rescinds all protection to traders, we may see in an increase in piracy, but also in profits. We don't care who brings us trade, only that it gets here.
Anti-Piracy Edict	Pirate Spawn Chance: -100%	Piracy has, for long, been a tolerated evil. Now that our naval capability has reached a tipping point, we should aim to protect shipping in our waters, by providing state protection.

Economic Laws

Law Name	Effects	Desc
Simple Land Tithe	National Tax: +5%	The vast complexities of most taxation systems are not always the most efficient use of our bureaucracy. Instituting a flat tithe on land may not be the most lucrative option, but it certainly doesn't have any major drawbacks.
Capitation Tax	National Tax: +10% National Freeman Happiness: -5%	Known as a 'Head Tax', this model of taxation is a flat rate levied on every adult, or adult male, in any given locality.
Infrastructure Policy	National Population Growth: +0.02% Build Cost: +20%	It may be a significant investment, but the improvements offered by a detailed program of public works, including sanitation, living conditions, and meeting places, will boost growth in our urban centers.
Exemption for Nobility	Monthly Loyalty: +0.1 Monthly Corruption: +0.05	Taxes are a drain on the lifestyle of our most loyal and prominent subjects. It will not be popular, but abolishing all forms of tax on the nobility will surely earn us gratitude in some most unexpected places.

Domestic Laws

Law Name	Effects	Desc
Courts for Landowners	National Citizen Happiness: +5%	A common practice to appease smallholders, involved setting up a series of district courts to handle domestic disputes. Known as dicasteries to the Greeks, these were often established in foreign lands as a matter of course.
Minority Legal Systems	Wrong Culture-Group Happiness: +10% Monthly Governor Loyalty: -0.05	By allowing tribal peoples and minorities to apply for the right to limited self-rule, we enable them to exist outside the local governmental authorities.
Ratify Debt Slavery	Slave Needed for Surplus: -1 National Freeman Happiness: -20%	The practice of debt slavery is truly an evil, but one required both to keep the lower classes in line and to fulfill our need for basic labor.
Relax Citizenship Status	Citizen Promotion Cost: -50% National Citizen Output: -10%	As our state grows ever larger, it becomes apparent that we are unable to rely solely on ancient and noble families to make up the lofty echelons of society. Relaxing the requirements to obtain full citizenship, however, may anger those lucky enough to already possess it.

Religious Laws

Law Name	Effects	Desc
Tolerance Policy	Unrest: -1	The various peoples of our realm have numerous deities, spirits, and pantheons, to which they pray. As long as we can continue to co-exist with each other, there is no need to change the status quo.
Tribal Integration	Convert Pop Cost: -40% National Tribesman Output: -50%	The wild and uncivilized people in the far reaches of our lands should be encouraged to integrate with the state; perhaps by proselytising, we might encourage them to become valuable members of society.
State Sponsored Religion	Omen Duration: +15% Monthly High Priest Loyalty: -0.1	State encouraged faiths, cults, and religions such as Serapism in Egypt and Buddhism under Ashoka, became increasingly prevalent during antiquity. The establishment of such institutions, gave the state unprecedented control over religion.
Divinity Statute	Ruler Popularity Gain: +0.1 Monthly High Priest Loyalty: +0.1	Few can deny the godly stature of our long lineage of rulers. The power and authority they wield, have become things of legend; even our neighbors are in awe. It is only right that we proclaim what we have long suspected: that our rulers are equal to gods themselves!

Contract Laws

Law Name	Effects	Desc
No Contract Laws	National Freeman Happiness: +5%	The absence of any formal contract and documentation laws, will earn us nothing, however, it is certain to please those who engage in domestic trade.
Transaction Tax	National Commerce Income: +5% National Freeman Happiness: -5%	The wild and uncivilized people in the far reaches of our lands should be encouraged to integrate with the state; perhaps by proselytizing, we might encourage them to become valuable members of society.
Public Notaries	National Commerce Income: +10% Monthly Governor Loyalty: -0.05	Rather than requiring vast numbers of witnesses to every contract, we should establish a bureau of public officials to oversee matters. This will certainly be cheaper, if more prone to trouble.
Tiered Bureaucracy	Provincial Loyalty: +0.1 Power Cost: +2.5%	The vast bureaucracies of the Ptolemys, Mauryas, and later, Rome, could massively increase the cost of performing even the simplest of actions at a state level. They were, however, renowned at record keeping and information dispersal.

Military Reforms

Law Name	Effects	Desc
Nobility Admission Law	National Citizen Happiness: +10% National Manpower: -10%	Our soldiers are drawn only from the very best. The sons of our most renowned families strive to protect our nation.
Martial Education	National Manpower: +10% National Citizen Happiness: -10%	The needs of our growing state can no longer be filled by the nobility alone; by admitting free men to the lower ranks of our forces, and militarizing appropriate social strata, we greatly increase our pool of available bodies.
Professional Generals	Monthly General Loyalty: +0.1 Monthly Wage: +10%	The coffers of our nation overflow - it seems only right to reward our greatest generals with unending riches; in return for their continued loyalty.
Mercenary Contract Decree	Mercenary Maintenance: -15% National Manpower: -15%	Our nation, rolling in wealth, has become a haven for foreign soldiers looking for work. Why should we risk our own people in defense of our home, when others will fight for us?

Authority Reforms

Law Name	Effects	Desc
Renowned Lineage	Monthly Legitimacy: +0.05	Throughout history, ambitious monarchs have tried desperately to link their royal houses to famous or legendary figures. At points, every one of the Diadochi claimed to be the rightful heir to Alexander - we should proclaim our grand heritage, and take our rightful place in history.
Sponsored Scholars	Research Points: +10%	In keeping with our noble scholarly traditions, we must provide incentives for foreign scholars to pursue their craft in our nation.
Re-minting Policy	National Tax: +10%	Now that we are able to, we should decree that all old coins in our nation must be handed in and re-minted with our own ruler's likeness, both increasing our authority, and re-balancing our currency.
Royal Bureaucracy	Monthly Legitimacy: +0.1 National Freeman Happiness: -10%	Through institutional continuity and a strong bureaucracy we will create a kingdom where our dynasty is so ingrained that the very thought of this country functioning without us will be impossible.
