For a time, this is also the most readily accessible source of Culture apart from Luxury Resources (detailed below). The first and most obvious source of Culture is the Monument building, which is available to every City Center right away. This could make for a sluggish start to your cultural development, and in this game this means not only slower acquisition of new Policy Cards, but also many other hindrances. Like Science, each Citizen in your cities produces Culture however, the amount (0.3) is not nearly enough for good progress. Of course, border expansion can be controlled in other ways (buying tiles with Gold).Īlthough Culture is not the main stat required to win a Cultural Victory (this is reserved for Tourism, as it was in Civilization V: Brave New World), Culture is indispensable when pursuing one, as it grants your civilization faster progress in the Civics tree and more ways to quicken the expansion of your Tourism.Īlso, Culture is the key to defending against a Cultural Victory! Accumulating large amounts of Culture attracts domestic tourists in your civilization, which forces other civilizations pursuing a Cultural Victory to attract more visiting tourists, thus slowing down their progress.Ĭulture may be earned through a variety of ways, though it rarely comes from terrain. This process is also automatic - the player can't even control which tile exactly will the city conquer next. Second, local Culture output of each city is applied towards its (and by extension your empire's) border expansion.
This is again an automatic process which starts the moment you Found your first city and doesn't stop until the end of the game. Culture functions on two levels: first, your total Culture output (plus eventual lump sums) is applied on the empire level to progress through the Civics tree (similar to how Science is used to progress through the Technology tree).
