Eudaimonia Put an end to popups!

I've been having some problems with this and I need some help.

In game, it says that the root word of this comes from the ancient Greek language meaning fulfillment and happiness. I've been trying to find the exact root word, but can't seem to find it. I've looked on Greek-English dictionary websites but can't seem to find it.

Can anyone hook a brother up?

eudaemonia - eu + daemon

eu: good, well

daemon: divine power, fate, god

That's what I got from my dictionary, I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for although :P

My dictionary's etymology agrees with that of DataAeolus:
eu + daemon = good + spirit
"A system of ethics that evaluates actions in terms of their capacity to produce happiness."

The message of game designers is clear:
EU (Europa Universalis) is divine; stay away from Civ 3

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Read more about Aristotle's idea and decide how similar it is to the idea described in the game.
