## About

This world can only be played after completed Dania. Completing Chibania will unlock Ultima.

Victory is achieved when reach 100% independence and have fulfilled either the mission Alana gave (paradise habitability) or the one Red gave (kept stats within 5% of original stats). You don't need to complete the normal goal for the faction of chosed (500.000.000 population for the UNSA / 1.000.000.000c revenue for Horizon Corporation/research all tecnologies for FFI).

Regardless of what player did on the previous planets, you can still choose to fulfill Red's or Alana's mission.

*You have been granted access to a secret project under development by a foreign power: an automated system currently being taught how to terraform a planet.*

*One side wants you to terraform to Paradise, the other wants you to maintain the starting stats of the planet. it's up to you who to side with. At the time you reach completion for each world, your choice will be finalized in the computer's memory.*

When you start playing Chibania, the world will already be producing 41 biomass/ minute because of natural growth, but since biomass is already maxed out, this doesn't actually matter all that much.

Chibania is the only planet in the Historical Earths campaign that has a HABITABLE status, and the stats are not far from PARADISE.

## Native Civilization

Chibania has three native 'cities' in the population tab. These represent three species of hominids alive at the time; the Neanderthals in Europe, the Denisovans in Asia and the Sapiens (humans modern) in Africa. Each has a population of around 6000 individuals, is uncontacted, and decently healthy.

## Strategy

Well this one really depends on your beliefs. What will you do with this planet? Follow the Gaians, and probably kill these three Native Civilization, or follow the Hephaestians? At this point there is no general terraforming strategy I could possibly advise. You could even follow neither faction if wanted to. It's all up to you.

If want to terraform the planet and preserve the natives, unlock and complete the mission The Shield.

By tweaking the temperature so that it “barely” reaches paradise levels, can melt enough ice to make the water level only a little over the ideal level. You can then tweak down the water level to ideal levels if really want to. recommend to just keep the water and temperature from where it should be, like on today's Earth.

Actually, it is possible to just terraform the planet without lending any help to the natives, as they can survive the changes needed to reach for Paradise Habitability, but the environmental changes would still damage their health, and therefore their happiness and their relationship with you. Moreover, building a Hab Dome over a village will allow the villagers to survive potential mistakes (for instance forgetting to stop pressure growth/decrease) while terraforming.

As soon gains 20 culture points, and spend all 20 point points towards completion, the game will be finished, regardless of the world's terraforming stats. As long as you can get those 20 culture points can 'win' this simulation, but that just isn't what it's about anymore.

Perhaps as stated above, first give natives a hab unit at high level.

## Trivia

This world it is based on the Chibaniense (774-129 Ka) it is the third age and floor of the Pleistocene (2.588 Ma-12 Ka). In the game sea level is a half kilometer below the current one and the biomass is at its peak when in the reality sea level it was only 121 meters lower than the cuerrent one and the biomass were fewer than today because the Earth was a world cold and dry. The Homo sapiens originated in Africa 315 thousand years ago, the Neanderthals (230-28 Ka) and Denisobans also originated in Africa.

The anthropologist have not established whether denisovans are a subspecies of homo sapiens or a different species, What is known that they appeared in Africa 1 million years ago and disappeared 40,000 years ago, they live in parts in Asia where there were already tribes of moderns humans and neanderthals.

throughout the Pleistocene there were glaciations that lasted about 100,000 years, in the middle of two glaciations there were warm periods with temperature, climate and sea level similars to those of today that lasted about 30,000 years, the last ended glaciation 12,000 years ago and is estimated that the next glaciation will arrive in about 50,000 years due to the current global warming.
