Greek Philosophy

[soibean]

Ive noticed that early on in the game, we receive an announcement saying that Stoic philosophy has come into play and your characters can now receive it as a trait. In my philosophy class we've begun to study about Stoic Philospohy, but there was also another major thought going around through the Epicureans... named after its founder Epicurus. The Epicureans focused more on physical science while the stoics with hard logic. I dont know if this is included in the game already, Ive never noticed before, but I thought its just another little thing to throw into the gameplay for those of the greek peninsula.
if you need any info or whatever on it, I have a few sources.
just a note: Epicurus died in 270 bc, which I believe is 2 years into the game play, but his thoughts apparently stuck around for hundreds of years afterwards.

I believe we do already have such a thing in our trait system, but incidentally, the vast majority of Alexander's successors would probably have characterized themselves as stoics.

well I was just thinking that it would be a rarer trait to get that would increase public order because this philosophy was easier to understand by the common man. If your leader believed the same thing that the people did, and they knew this, they'd be more apt to follow him.
Nothing big because its only a philosophy but all the same.

I know, and like I said, I do believe we already have something of this nature. Definitely worth having.
