The Raj of Steam and Steel/Wonders

Wonders: Quick reference card

For the original Wonders as shown in Age of Chariots, click here.
For Age of Empires wonders, see here.

In contrast with Age of Chariots, Rise of the Ancients and Age of Empires wonders in The Raj of Steam and Steel, Wonders are now divided into three groups:

• The first, consisting of a handful, is available mostly to Angreziraj, and possibly associate nations like New Britain, South Africa and Australia.
• The second and third groups are divided, as they were in Rise of the Moderns, into Populist and Elitist wonders and need appropriate Politics upgrades from the Senate to access them.
  • Populist Wonders allow some access to units;
  • Elitist Wonders are mainly technology-based (and usually revolve around improving your economy or research base).
