Imagine a 4X strategy where various agents are key pawns of action; tanglible civilians show real-life-like migration or rebellion behaviours; and units behaviour is affected by their prejudices... #indiegames

Here how "Unrest Traits" work in IA!
Discontent citizens will go on strike and later, if still unsatistied they will protest. If there is no improvement, finally they will riot. Rioting can lead to rebellion, or continue until people are tired of rioting.
