Ideology (Civ7)

Back to Civilization VII

For the Legacy Path, see Ideology (Legacy Path) (Civ7).

An Ideology is a game element in Civilization VII and its expansions.

Mechanics

Ideologies come into play in the Modern Age and are unlocked by the discovery of the Political Theory Civic. There are three Ideologies to choose from: Democracy, Communism, and Fascism. To select an Ideology, you must invest one turn of research into the first Civic of its respective Ideology tree (e.g., to pick Democracy, you must spend a turn researching the Democracy Civic).

Committing to an Ideology grants the first player +2 Social Policy slots and the second player +1 Social Policy slot. Depending on the chosen Ideology, you always receive specific bonuses.
