Government Types

There are 38 different types of government that you can choose while setting up your game, and which you can freely switch between while in the game itself. The government type that you choose while setting the game up will determine how many tech points you start with, which can be used either by checking the "Assign starting tech points automatcially" option on the create game screen, or they can be used as guidelines when giving yourself research with the SpaceMaster_Mode.
