Tercios — Government Reform

Tercios is a government reform that can be adopted by any government type. Reforms are chosen one per tier to shape how your nation is governed.

The Tercios, literary 'A Third', were the backbone of the Spanish armies in the Early Modern Age. While historically the Tercios were not only drafted from Spain, but also from Italy or Wallonia, the most valuable Tercios were drafted from Spanish provinces. Tercios were almost unbeatable for decades in the battlefields across Europe and the Mediterranean, and were key to the evolution of European warfare.
