Ethics represent an empire's core ideological beliefs, shaping its policies, societal structure, and diplomatic stance. They define whether an individual values freedom or authoritarian control, militaristic conquest or peaceful cooperation.
An empire's Ethics influence available Civics, Authorities, and interactions with other empires. While Ethics are chosen at empire creation, they can shift over time due to internal pressures, faction influence, or deliberate reform via ethic shift mechanics.
