Empire Headquarters

The unique founding seat of an empire. Its self-contained command, civic, scientific, industrial, and commercial services provide the essentials needed to establish a new civilization. While the local population is below 1,500, the active headquarters adds 1–5 population per tick, limited by empty housing and the 1,500 population threshold.
