In-depth description
The Stellaris command effect country_add_ethic = allows you to add an ethic to your empire.
This command is designed to give your empire a core belief that influences its governance and attitudes. The game has different types of ethics - from militarist to pacifist, spiritualist to materialist, xenophobe to xenophile, you can equip your empire with the ethic that most suits your strategic needs.
The parameter [ethic id] is a place where you input the identifier or code that corresponds to the ethic you wish to add. Each ethic in Stellaris has its own unique ID.
However, it's important to note that using this command to add more than 3 ethic points to your empire will result in the removal of least attractive ethics.
There's a specific balance within your empire's belief system, and exceeding that limit results in some beliefs being discarded to maintain equilibrium.
This command is especially useful in various situations.
For instance, if you find that your current gameplay strategy isn't working well with your empire's existing ethics, you can use this command to add a new ethic that more appropriately aligns with your strategy.
Conversely, if you're looking to challenge your strategy without starting anew, adding a new ethic to your empire can provide a different perspective and potential for gameplay.
However, it is wise to remember that randomly adding ethics can have unpredictable effects, as they influence how other empires see and interact with you, so should be used when you have a firm grasp of the gameplay implications.
