1772 AD: THe leader of ORPCP (Organization for Roman Peace and Civland Prosperity), named civman in honor of civman V, is elected Head Civver civman VIII.  His campaign was centered around the "3 p's": peace, prosperity, and progress.  TO insure the safety of the Civvers, manyh cities begin training militias armed with rifles.  Science gains a large part of the federal budget; luxuries are turned down.

2. Every city and all territory controlled with the lone exception of Aurelinorum (sp?) and its surroundings.
3. The science of medicine and their system of industrialization.
