I've played two games of empire mode and abandoned a third. I've noticed that the numerical complexity of the world has gotten higher. They started around 15-25 and now are 35-55 range now.

  • What mechanics governs the range of world complexities?
  • Does the world I started and abandoned factor into this somehow?

I've searched and been unable to find any information of these mechanics.
