File:Civ6Culture.png Culture is one of the main statistics in Civilization VI. Its role has been greatly enhanced since Civilization V: besides fueling border expansion at the city level, it is now used to research developments in the brand new Civics tree, similar to how File:Civ6Science.png Science is used to progress through the Technology tree. In the same way as File:Civ6Science.png Science, your total File:Civ6Culture.png Culture output (plus eventual lump sums) is applied each turn towards the Civic you are currently developing. At the same time, local File:Civ6Culture.png Culture output of each city is applied towards its border expansion.
