If Proposal: Papers, Please was not enacted then this proposal has no effect.

In the rule Factions, change “and a Loyalty which is either Loyal or Disloyal” to “and a Culture”. In the same rule, change “randomly determining its Loyalty” to “randomly determining its Culture” and remove any bracketed text that may exist.

Add a subrule to the rule Factions:

Each Faction has a Culture, which is privately tracked by the City. A Culture is a sequence of five terms, called Positions, each of which is one side of a binary statement. If a Faction has no Culture then the City may generate one for it, with each Position being secretly randomly selected. A Faction’s Culture may be:
* Progressive or Conservative
* Multicultural or Monocultural
* Acquisitive or Relational
* Anarchic or Ordered
* Loyal or Disloyal

(The City may set the Culture of the Faction named “Machinists” and the Faction named “Seafolk” to random values and repeal this bracketed text, at any time.)

Each Position (except Loyal or Disloyal) is associated with a quality that a District can have, as follows:

{| class="wikitable sortable"
! Position !! Preference !! Preference Formula !! Reward
|-
| Progressive || High Ingenuity / Ingenuity cost of understood Innovations || Ingenuity + Ingenuity cost of all understood Innovations || 0.2 Ingenuity
|-
| Conservative || High Order || Order || 0.2 Order
|-
| Multicultural || High number of other Factions in the District || Number of Factions || 0.5 People, 0.1 Ingenuity
|-
| Monocultural || Low number of other Factions in the District || Number of Factions || 0.5 People, 0.1 Order
|-
| Acquisitive || High Food and a large number of Connections || Food + Number of Connections + Energy || 0.1 Food and 0.1 Energy
|-
| Relational || High People || People || 1 People
|-
| Anarchic || Low Defences and low Order || (Defence + Order) * -1 || 0.1 Food, 0.1 Ingenuity and 0.1 Energy
|-
| Ordered || High Defences and high Order || Defence + Order || 0.1 Defence and 0.1 Order

A Faction Test is an atomic action that requires a specific District and a specific Faction to be its target. Whenever a Faction Test takes place, the District or City carrying it out undertakes the following steps:
* For the named Faction, calculate the named District’s position relative to all other Districts for each of the Preference Formulas of its Culture, with Loyal always being considered above average and Disloyal always being considered below average.
* If more than two of the results are below the mean average for all Districts then it stops housing that Faction.

Add the following as a fifth step to the Posing a Dilemma atomic action:

* Secretly randomly select a Faction. For each District where that Faction is Housed, carry out a Faction Test for that District and that Faction.

Add the following to the step of the Posing a Dilemma atomic action immediately after the one just added:

If any District ceased to House a Faction as a result of an earlier step in this Action, also announce that change in the same blog post.
