Sovereignty Rises is a Real-Time Strategy game inspired by Paradox’s Europa Universalis & Hearts of Iron as well as Sid Meier’s Civilization. The goal of the game is to put realism as the forefront of the development of the various functions and mechanics within the game.
Care is taken to ensure the relative accuracy of the systems in place so it produces a realistic looking world. Plate tectonics are simulated along with the land cratons that also float on the plates to produce this varied terrain.
There are so many things to cover and so many things to think up!

Weather & Climate
This is a big factor in gameplay as it will decide a lot of the key aspects of the game from settlements to resources from certain oxides and other minerals to where certain flora and fauna are populated. Importantly, in order to achieve the level of detail desired, there must be a simulation of different atmospheric and oceanic layers to simulate their currents and thus the distribution
