Belle & Bellicosity is a mod I've made to add technologies to Stellaris to allow for the user to unlock, through Sociological research, more and more Rivalries and Embassies.
The mod consists of 12 technologies - Belle Relations I through V, Bellicosity I through V, Belle & Bellicosity, and Xeno Relations. Belle Relations techs unlock an additional Embassy, Bellicosity techs unlock an additional Rivalry. You must research both on any given tier to unlock the next tier. When you've researched all ten, Belle & Bellicosity, a very expensive tech, becomes available, which increases both by 1. Having researched Belle & Bellicosity, Xeno Relations, a repeatable technology, becomes available for research, which increases embassies and rivalries by 1 each.
As a bonus, the technologies tell a trite little tale as they're researched, so mouseover them for their descriptions at least once, okay?
Huge shout-out to the folks who made More Technologies. I didn't rip off any of your code, but I did crack More Technologies open to figure out how to make mine work.
Note: The standard version is tuned for use with my Shadow's Defines mod. If you don't use Shadow's Defines, or some other mod which eliminates the mounting technology costs by population and colony number, the tech costs in Belle & Bellicosity will be huge. For this purpose, I made the Vanilla Tech Costs edition instead.
