==Ethic value numbers in relation to each other==
+
==Ethics values==
−
The following table describes how entities respond to other cultures, with the observer on the vertical axis and their target on the horizontal axis.
 
−
If an entity's accumulated animosity towards another passes a certain threshold (determined by the ruler's personality) then it will run a risk-assessment check. If passed, this will lead to a declaration of war.
 
  
−
In general, entities react much more strongly to actions that violate ''their'' taboos than to the outlawing of their customs in other civilisations.
+
This table shows the degree to which relations between two civilizations will be affected by disputes over an ethical issue, based on how much they accept it. Columns list the ethics values of the target civilization, while rows list the ethics values of the evaluating civilization. When several disputes accumulate a strong enough negative value for the evaluating civilization, they will go to war. Blank comparisons have no effect at all.
−
For example, Civ A finds slavery Acceptable, but Civ B considers it a Capital Offence.
+
 
−
* Civ A will consider Civ B most unreasonable (−5) for executing people over such a non-issue.
+
Ethics are listed loosely in order of descending acceptability.
−
* Civ B will be shocked and disgusted (−15) that Civ A engages in such a debased activity.
 
−
* The end result is mutual negativity. However, Civ B is 3× ''more'' offended, and much more likely to go to war over the issue — assuming, of course, they think they have a chance of winning.
