I have the Australian version and have just begun to learn how to play. How much harder do the difficulty levels get? I have completed a game on Citizen (the easist), tiny random world with Yang. I never built a colony pod of any kind, or engaged in conquest so I had only the one base for the entire game. I won by Ascending with about 10 years before retirement. Sure I was at war with everyone else - but they were fighting each other too. In fact only the University and the Peace Keepers were still alive when the game finished.
A side question - how many monmument events are there?

You can get up to twenty monuments in one game, including the 6 headstones for eradicating the other factions. There are actually 21 monuments possible, but two of those (Transcendence and Unification/Conquest) are mutually exclusive.

Alright Chris, then what are the twenty different monuments, or where can they be found in the manual? I have gotten 12 so far as my best. Also, when ever you discover a secrets technology, it say that you discovered Secrets of the Human Brain and that other secrets were discovered in 21XX or 22XX ect. Maybe you guys could fix this?
