	How can I use Monachy? Full PM-box? Change here!

ok,

First, other civs are in awe of my culture, i'm tech advanced but my military is average. Why can't I use republic or monarchy without having civil disorders all the time?



And second, wich one is the best?

Thanks

Civil Disorder is caused by unhappy citizens. Try to acquire more luxuries via trade or build Temples, Colloseums, and Cathedrals.

What Henry said. Also, in my opinion, Republic is much better, and Democracy is the best, unless you're at war... then Republic can be better.

Also, you can go to the F1 advisor screen and allocate some of your budget to entertainment spending. There is a slider bar, and you can choose what % you want to spend on entertainment, in 10% increments.

If you are at war, certain governments will suffer from war weariness after a while (republic & demo - demo in particular). Be aware of this. If you're gonna fight, make sure you conquer some new luxuries to keep your people happy, and to trade with others for even more luxuries.

Oh! I almost forgot. Build marketplaces. Without them, each type of luxury gives you 1 happy face. However, with a market, only the first two luxuries do that. The second two give two happy faces each, then 3 for the next two, and finally luxuries numbers 7 and 8 give 4 each. That's a lot of happiness.

If you've been doing a lot of Despot pop-rushing, that might be carrying over into your transitions to Monarcy/Republic. You'll have to give it time to fade away completely. In the meantime, luxuries, temples, cathedrals, or allotting some of your budget to entertainment should shut the whiners up .

I find Monarchy is useful as a "fall-back" from Republic if war weariness is catching up to you and you've got cash in the bank for rush-builds (cash is not very useful under Despotism except in diplomacy). The military police make keeping control easier, though of course you do sacrifice lots of income. The corruption rate doesn't seem very different, either. Helps to be a Religious civ - switch to Monarchy, beat up your enemy, back to Republic - no war weariness
