    Nothing they just stack up and stack up...


    But you also can purchase or sell anything without paying your bills first...

    So what's the point of bothering to pay your bills at all?

    You can't buy or sell anything so your nation stays the same forever...

    You also can't buy soldiers, or anything, so if you get attacked... yeah, that's it.

    Would it be better to stay a Republic if my people like it like that? I saw on the Cyber Nations information page that Monarchy is +1 happiness. Would the +1 happiness overcome the dislike of that form of government by the population?

    Also, why do you need to stop collecting taxes/paying bills to get aid? Not stealing my minions hard earned money is more difficult than I thought it would be. Especially since I'm like down to $300 due to earlier retarded spending on infrastructure, land, and soldiers one by one.

    I'm not trying to mention the specifics but I couldn't find the answer on the guide.

    When you have a government type your people dont want you get -1 hapiness so if you were to choose monarchy it would equal out to 0 happiness.

    Always choose Monarchy unless your people want a Capitalist government Then choose that one.

    It gives you the best results, in terms of balancing upkeep costs, happiness, and all that other jazz.

    Also it seems they made a change to revolutionary So it could be the same as Monarchy...

    -5% to Infrastructure income is quite the nice perk

    Because collecting a week of collections at 2,000 infrastructure is much more profitable then at 20.

    Also, being able to pay a weeks worth of infra bills at 20 and then buying a ton, then collecting, gives you a huge profit. It's kind of like playing the system.

    So I have cattle and fish as my default resources. I was just wondering what resources I should be looking for trade. Right now through trade I have aluminium, gems, oil and water. I have two trades awaiting approval which are lumber/silver, and iron/wheat. Is this a good set up for now(I started up about 5 days ago)?

    If you've joined GOD, go look in the library of the GOD Forums. The Nation Building Guide will tell you everything.

    No, but it's better then fur/wine, lol. I'd delete and restart, you're going to have a hard time getting trades with that.
