Limit

1. Each player chooses or receives a nationand takes the corresponding board and player aids.
2. Place the Market board, prepare the cards(232 cards), the resource tokens: money, pollution, destabilization, fossil resources, cubes, etc.
3. Shuffle the political, social, and crisis cards according to the rules, and prepare the alliances(economic and military tokens).

1. Political Phase: players play pairs of political cards, imposing choices such as improving living standards, building factories, promoting policies, declaring hostilities, etc.
2. Social Phase: your nation reacts: the population consumes resources, pays taxes, produces goods, and can even revolt if decisions are poorly received.
3. International Phase: global crises can occur (ecological, financial, military), and nations can negotiate alliances using their economic or military tokens.

• If 4 global criseshave been triggered, the game can end before the 7th generation.
• At the end of the game, the resilienceof each nation is tested: certain steps of the social phase (food, consumption, production) are replayed without triggering new crises to simulate future generations.
• Points are then calculated according to several criteria:

1. Gross National Happiness: sum of the living standards of social classes 1, 3 and 5.
2. Financial Power: the value of the currency depends on the number of crises (crises are subtracted from the number 5), multiplied by the money in possession.
3. Territory: each territory token earns points.
4. Military Power: points are obtained for military resources held (e.g., 1 point per 3 resources).
5. Historical Impact: penalties for pollution and destabilization (each token of these types costs points).

The player with the highest score wins: they have successfully led their nation to prosperity, while maintaining a balance in the face of crises.
