Factions

Name
Bonus, Penalty
Respective Trait for each
Favor

The magnitude of the effects is affected by favor; it is increased by 1 for each leader assigned, but a major factor is ideology; each faction has 3 ideologies that boost it. Several factions double stack; essentially double counting a single ideology (and are thus easier to ramp up).

Cultural Policies

List of items Buildings and ships. Tier 6 for Collectivism has two different descriptions; one says it increases diligence per month, the other says it increases attack power per month

Individualism
1- The Independence is a survey ship

Totalitarianism
3a The Enforcer +25% Manufacuring in 3 tile range

3b Secret Police (Policy)

+1% Gross Income per level
+5 Manufacturing Adjacency

Traditionalism
1 Hall of Tradition
100 Production 1 Promethium
+ 1 Technology +1 Culture Point per Month
+1% income per level
+2 Tourism adjacency

(The best building in the game. Always dip one into Traditionalism to pick it up because base culture point gain is 1 per month from your civilizations capital. This is the only reliable boost- the other options are other civilization capitals and Galactic Commission (Political Capital, Level 7 tech).

Progressivism
2b Innovation Complex
200 Production 1 Elerium
1% research per level
+5 research adjacency

3b Hyperion Shrinker
200 Production 5 Promethium

15% gross income
10% per level
+3 reseach/wealth adjacency

5a Possibility Engine
2400 Production
50% research
5% per level

(Innovation Complex is meant to go with Think Tank (+1 technology per level)), which is extremely good, but the other bonuses are meh with 6 being worse then Individualism.

Pacifism
2a Goodwill

2b Peacemaker Trait

5b United Planets Improvement


Nihlism
2b Crime Wave Executive Order
