Back to List of governments in CivRev
Communism is a form of government available in Civilization Revolution. It can be adopted after researching the technology of the same name.
Communism provides a civilization with a 50% increase to its city-based production, but its Temples and Cathedrals no longer produce culture. According to the in-game Science Advisor, it is "mainly a military technology."
Under Communism, a civilization's leader will use the title "Premier."
Civilopedia entry[]
Communism is a form of government in which the State owns everything: there is little or no private property. There is no ruling class; everyone is equal. Workers, farmers and laborers of all types come together and share the fruits of their labor, taking from each according to his ability to provide, giving to each according to his need.
The strength of this form of government is that all within it share equally in the State's output. No one is allowed to slip through the safety net into abject poverty. The weakness of this form of government is that it tends to be subject to great corruption and abuse, unable to overcome human acquisitiveness (or greed).
Fun facts[]
- Communism, embraced by dozens of countries around the world at its height, caused substantial unease in governments opposed to Communism. The "Red Scare" was a period of powerful anti-communist sentiment in the United States during the 1950s that resulted in the wrongful imprisonment or blacklisting of many artists and public figures of the era.
- Deng Xiaoping is considered one of the most influential Communist leaders of the twentieth century. He is renowned in China for turning the nation's stumbling economy into one of the most powerful in the world through the adoption of a market economy.
