Uranium (Civ5)

== Game Info ==
Advanced late-game strategic resource. Used for building nuclear weapons and Nuclear Plants.
== Strategy ==
 Uranium is the last strategic resource in the game, discovered with the Atomic Theory technology. Its use comes in the Atomic Era - it allows you to build Atomic Bombs and Nuclear Missiles. Uranium also allows construction of the Nuclear Plant, a building which helps speed up city .
Finally, it allows you to build Giant Death Robots, which are the most powerful direct combat units in the game. So, you can choose to either guard your Uranium for military purposes, or construct Nuclear Plants to greatly improve  in your cities if your civilization isn't particularly warlike.
 Uranium is a rare resource, but it's found on a great variety of terrains. It's improved by a Mine.
Upon discovering Atomic Theory - and especially if you are the first to discover it - you should try to ensure that you and your allies control the majority of the Uranium on the map, as the ability to produce nuclear weapons has the potential to dramatically affect the game to the point of crippling entire civilizations. Likewise, if you have strained relations with AI leaders, you should either try to befriend them or deprive them of their Uranium before it can be used to make nuclear weapons.
City-states cannot complete the Manhattan Project, so those that have access to Uranium will never use it to make nuclear weapons. Other civilizations, however, can gain access to a city-state's Uranium by conquering it or becoming its ally.
