   Formula: ${ \left ( { Original ~ { \color { Blue } Defense } \times 0.8 = new ~ { \color { Green } Defense } } \right ) }$

2. +5% longer build times for troops (NOT ships).

   Formula: ${ \left ( { Original ~ { \color { Blue } Build ~ time } \times 1.05 = new ~ { \color { Green } Build ~ time } } \right ) }$

With Xenocracy

If your capital is ever occupied, the form of government will switch to Xenocracy. However this occurs without a revolution or costs.

Game notes:

1. Xenocracy means that you only achieve half of the advantages of your actual form of government. The same goes for the disadvantage effects of your form of government.
2. As soon as your capital has been liberated, you will have the full effects of the advantages and disadvantages of your form of government again. This will happen without a revolution or costs.
3. Xenocracy does NOT affect Anarchy, you will continue to have its full effects, if your capital becomes occupied while you are under Anarchy.

WikIkariam note

Xenocracy only occurs when your Capital has become occupied by another player and does not change your current government but just halves (½) the advantages and disadvantages of the current government.
