Low Stability on a humanoid planet

Planetary management involves district creation, building construction, and assigning a workforce for resource production to maintain peace and order, manage population growth, and set up garrisons for planetary defense.

Planets are, without a doubt, a vital part of a stellar empire because they provide the overwhelming majority of resources and the population required for an empire to grow and prosper. If a planet is managed properly, it could provide the needs of its populace and the demands of its empire and if an empire has a large collection of prosperous, productive planets within its borders, it can quite easily be seen as a successful empire.

Stability[edit source]

Stability is a measure of the overall stability of a world, either socio-political or in terms of drone functionality, and is influenced by a large number of factors such as happiness, housing, amenities and crime or deviancy.

Stability effects[edit source]

Stability ranges from 0 to 100 and has a base level of 50.

Each point of Stability above 50 adds +0.6% resources from jobs, +0.6% Trade Value and +0.4 immigration pull.
Each point of Stability below 50 adds −1% resources from jobs, −1% Trade Value and +2 emigration push.
At very low Stability, organic pops (excluding Hive-Minded or Nerve Stapled pops) and sentient Mechanical pops may cause unrest events.

Low stability can give a planet one of the following modifiers once every 2 years. Modifiers that require slaves can be removed instantly by discontinuing slavery.

Modifier	Effects	Duration	Required stability	Description
Valiant Citizens	+33% Governing Ethics Attraction	20 years	25	Despite high Unrest, Pops on this colony banded together to prevent further violence.
Unrest	+100% Random Ethic Attraction	20 years	25	Unrest on this colony caused local Pops to become more attracted to a random ethic.
Terror Victims	−33% Governing Ethics Attraction	20 years	25	Unrest on this colony caused Pops to be victimized in a terror attack and lose faith in the regime.
Terror Victims (Severe)	−75% Governing Ethics Attraction	10 years	25	Unrest on this colony caused Pops to be victimized in a terror attack and lose faith in the regime.

Slave Riots	−1000% Slave Output −50% Pop Growth Speed −50% Army Build Speed −50% Planet Build Speed	10 years	10	Slave Riots inhibit population growth.

Rebellion[edit source]

If a colony's stability decreases below 10, a rebellion can take place. If the rebel armies are defeated the world will get +20 stability for 10 years. If the rebel armies win the rebel colony will take control of the system's starbase and every other colony present in the system and create a rebel empire with −100 opinion. This empire will often be annexed by a hostile empire nearby.

Type	Armies	Rebel ethics	Requirements
Slave Rebellion	2 Slave Armies for every enslaved Pop	Fanatic Egalitarian	Slaves Radicalizing planet modifier
Rebellion	1 Assault Army for every pop	Population's current ethics	Slaves Radicalizing planet modifier

Increasing stability[edit source]

Normal empires primarily increase stability by having a high Approval Rating or using the Declare Martial Law decision and having enough Soldier jobs. Gestalt Consciousness empires primarily increase Stability by having a high number of Amenities or using the Deploy Hunter-Killer Drones or Activate Compliance Protocols decisions and having enough Warrior Drone jobs. Empires with the Byzantine Bureaucracy civic can also gain it from Bureaucrat jobs.

Stability can also be increased by the following:

Source	Stability
Empire Capital	+5
Noble job	+5

Shared Burdens civic	+5

Pacifist ethic	+5
Fanatic Pacifist ethic	+10
Psychic governor trait	+5
Chosen One governor trait	+10

Stability is also increased by +10 on all human player worlds if the game difficulty is set to Cadet and by +5 all AI player worlds for each difficulty step above Ensign.

Consecrate World[edit source]

The Consecrate World decision requires the Consecrated Worlds ascension perk and can only be used on up to 3 uncolonized planets at the same time at the cost of 50 influence. It can be canceled at any time for the same cost and if taken again the result will be re-rolled. When the decision is taken the empire will gain a Consecrated modifier and give the empire the following bonuses:

Consecrated modifier	Unity	Amenities	Spiritualist ethic attraction	Chance					Description

Crime and Deviancy[edit source]

Crime and Deviancy are measures of the overall level of non-compliance in the population of a world. Crime and Deviancy are produced by any Pop, ranging from 0 at 100% Happiness to +2 at 0% Happiness. While Unemployment does not increase Crime or Deviancy it can add modifiers that cause them if measures aren't taken. Crime and Deviancy are reduced by certain Jobs as well as Governor leaders.

Every year one of the following modifiers can be added as long as the requirements are met. Another modifier cannot be added for the next 10 years. Alternatively 15 Devastation can be added instead of a modifier. Once a planet has below 10 Crime or Deviancy all modifiers will be removed after 15 years. The timer is reduced by 50% for each Enforcer or Hunter-Seeker Drone Job. All modifiers are also removed if a planet changes ownership.

If a Branch Office belonging to an empire with the Criminal Heritage civic is open on a planet with 0 Crime there is a 5% chance that the Branch Office will be closed. The same empire cannot close another Branch Office for 10 years but the Corporate empire will not be able to establish another Branch Office on the same world for 10 years either.

Branch Offices[edit source]

Branch Office with a Temple of Prosperity

Empires that have Corporate authority can establish a Branch Office on another empire's worlds if the Corporate empire has a Commercial Pact with, is the overlord of, or is Federated with the owner of the world, and there is not already a Branch Office of another Corporate empire present. Branch Offices cannot be established on the worlds of an empire with the Corporate, Hive Mind or Machine Intelligence authority.

Branch Offices give the Corporate empire Energy Credits equal to 50% of the world's Trade Value, or 60% if the Corporate empire has the Free Traders civic.

Establishing a Branch Office costs 1000 Energy Credits and 50 Influence, and increases the Corporate empire's Empire Sprawl by 2. The cost/sprawl can be reduced by the following:

Source	Cost Reduction	Note
Universal Transactions	−15% Branch Office cost	Cannot be taken by Criminal Heritage
Franchising	−25% Empire Sprawl

Branch Offices can be closed by their Corporate owner at any time. If a Branch Office exists on a world after a Commercial Pact or Federation is left or the Subsidiary becomes independent, the Branch Office will remain open, but the world's owner will get the Expropriation Casus Belli on the Corporate empire to remove it through war.

Corporate Buildings[edit source]

4 mutually beneficial corporate buildings can be built in a Branch office, giving a resource or empire-wide bonus to the Corporate empire, and a planet-based bonus or Jobs to the Branch Office world.

1-3 Building Slots are unlocked by the planets Capital building, depending on planet type and level. An additional slot is unlocked by the owning empire getting the Insider Trading Diplomacy Tradition.

Criminal Heritage[edit source]

Empires with the Criminal Heritage can establish Branch Offices without the need of a Commercial Pact or other relationship. Their Branch Offices still generate Energy Credits normally based on the world's Trade Value, but generate additional Energy Credits based on the world's Crime value, ranging from 25% of trade with 0 crime to 75% with 100 crime.

Criminal Heritage Corporate empires do not have access to the regular Corporate Buildings aside from the Temple of Prosperity, instead using a unique set of Corporate Buildings that increases a planet's Crime.

The world owner will get the Expropriation Casus Belli as soon as such a Branch Office is opened.
