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 YIELD LEGITIMACY.png 10 Legitimacy. There are 5 possible Succession Laws, and changing them costs 100 YIELD LEGITIMACY.png Civics.

Tribes

Tribes occupy certain City Sites at the start of the game. 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. There are 7 Tribes present in Old World:
