###Genres
The games of the series combine several genres.

4X genre: player control an exploire, expands, exploits, and exterminates.

EXplores - the player sends scouts to explore adjacent territories,

EXpands - the player is trying to assign new territories to himself, establishing settlements or expanding the influence of already existing settlements,

EXploits - the player collects or extracts resources, organizes and develops the industry.

EXterminates - attack on other empires, destruction of enemies. Often this becomes a condition for further expansion.

Games of the 4X genre usually have a very complex, detailed gameplay that takes considerable time to complete each of the four stages listed above.

Grand strategy: the player rules the country or the empire, the actions of individuals or even large teams are usually not emphasized, the player acts by entire industries and armies.

Real-time tactics: in games of this genre, all attention is paid to tactical actions on the battlefield - the location of units on the ground, the use of the terrain. Such games claim to reproduce the logic of real battles.

Turn-Based Strategy: gameplay evolves as an alternation of turns of each player. In one turn in the game world can take many years, many units can make a maneuver, can change a lot.

###Modes
