Technocracy (government) (CTP1)

Technocracy is a form of government in Civilization: Call to Power. Its effects are good on growth, excellent on production, good on science, average on gold, and average on military.
==Summary==
Technocracy gives the ultimate production power to the large empire by reducing the poor and middle classes into highly productive virtual automatons. The Technocracy monitors and subsumes all dissent. In return, the Technocracy guarantees stability and high production yields.
==Gameplay==
This somewhat inhumane form of government of the 22nd century was based on the idea of a group of technological elitists enriching themselves on the backs of the middle and lower class. In order to stifle discontent, they basically offered them drugs. Through a combination coercion, robotics and pharmaceuticals, the technological elites have made an effective form of government that enriches them while only further impoverishing the classes beneath them.
This is a good government to use in-game if you have to get the upper hand on an opponent with little to no downside.
==History==
By the 22nd century, as overcrowding blighted the world, the economic and technological elite made a pact with the devil. Surrender the rights of the poor and the freedoms of the masses in return for excess riches for the wealthy. Backed by robotic production, state sanctioned drug distribution, and an ever-present automated security system, this new Technocracy resulted in increased productivity and consumption. With elevated cities for the rich, the less glamorous effects were not even visible.
