  7. I was curious what the relationship was between the ID of a nation and the ID of its capital (first) city. I expected that for early nations, the difference would be quite small, as there were just a few small nations that didn't have the means for rapid growth. Later nations would obviously have increasingly higher IDs, but I expected the rate of growth to be expanding over time. However, turns out it's remarkably linear: There are a few things to note here. The offset at the very start is due to the fact that nations were reset at game launch, but city ID enumeration started at 10600 (I assume; the lowest ID still existing is 10603). The flat line at the start is also partially due to the reset at launch; a number of nations all created their first cities in rapid succession, before anybody had any chance to grow. I'm not certain, but the size of that beginning plateau is quite large, so I don't think that the reset accounts for it 100%. There are quite a few outliers from the trends here. These are nations who have had cities deleted, but the nations themselves were not. Strange moderation practices, I assume. But getting to the point, there has been a remarkably steady growth rate throughout the history of the game. On average, for any new nation, every nation that came before it has had 1.69 cities. Because this relationship is so remarkably linear, we can normalize by nation ID and zoom in on the fluctuations. (The first 10,000 are cut off because they're not part of the growth trend.) Here, we can quite clearly see what I was expecting initially, that the growth rate has, in fact, risen over time. However, that change is very, very small and also fluctuates quite wildly. This chart also makes another small artifact more visible, in that new nations don't necessarily have ascending capital city IDs. Apparently it's quite common for Ruler A to create an account, then go have lunch. During that time, Ruler B creates an account and then creates Nation B and City B immediately. Then Ruler A gets back from lunch and creates Nation A and City A. Because your nation creation date is actually your account creation date, rather than when you finished the nation creation process, then we have the result that Nation A is older than Nation B, but City B is older than City A. I'm not sure if there's any useful information buried in here, but here it is, nevertheless.
