Your nation's Administrative Efficiency affects a wide range of variables chiefly concerning its governance and economic running. Here are a few examples of these variables, provided in order to illustrate why this mechanic is important:
These are just a few. This mechanic is intended to represent how effectively your civil servants can do the job you ask of them. Improving your administrative efficiency will affect your nation in many ways, from increasing the amount of money you are able to raise in taxes to reducing the financial upkeep of your navy.
- The sophistication and proficiency of your nation's bureaucratic infrastructure. I.E. whether you have people in your Ministry of Finance who know how to use an abacus, ergo determining how easy it is for your country to collect the taxes that are owed to it; how meritocratically representative your civil service is, ergo, can your Ambassador to France even speak French? etc.
- The efficiency with which your country's sovereign executive can enact directives through governmental channels to effect action. I.E. the degree to which your national bureaucracy is too lazy/feckless/badly-educated/uppity/poorly-paid/intransigent to do as they are asked when they are asked, ergo, affecting the degree to which they will enforce the sovereign executive's will through the nation.
