Diplomacy
Introduction
The Diplomacy screen displays your current diplomatic status with the other major empires and
allows you to conduct negotiations with them.
Your empire stands at the bottom center, and the other empires are laid out according to your
relations. Unknown empires are located the farthest; allied empires are close to you.
 “Unknown” means you have not yet met this empire, and must discover it by meeting one
of its armies or cities on the Adventure Map.
 “War” means that you are engaged in an all-out war with this empire.
 “Cold War” is the default status when you meet another empire. You can generally engage
each other’s troops in neutral territory, but both their territory and yours are protected
from aggression until war is declared.
 “Peace” allows you to develop advanced diplomatic agreements which can mutually
benefit both empires
 “Alliance” is a stronger bond between two empires which grants them mutual defenses.
Declaring war on an empire is risky, but declaring war on an empire allied with another is
even riskier.
To initiate diplomatic negotiations with an empire, simply click on the base of the figure that
represents it.
You can also hover your mouse over their portrait to select if you want to initiate diplomatic
negotiations or if you want to check their diplomatic relations with other empires.
