Smart Power Doctrine (Civ6)

Smart Power Doctrine is a Future Era civic in Civilization VI: Gathering Storm.
== Strategy ==
When faced with the deadly arms of a military superpower, you have no other option but to get "smart" for your defense. The main idea behind developing smart power is not to get some fancy ultra-efficient weapons, but to make the existing ones stronger via unconventional means. This usually includes appealing to other powers through diplomacy, making alliances, and generally making the non-military life of the potential aggressor so hard that they back down without you having actually defeated them on the field.
The policy cards unlocked by Smart Power Doctrine can facilitate a Diplomatic Victory and hinder other players' Domination Victory progress.
