What to study

Population is treated as a political actor, not a headcount: the left list counts each species in the empire, and selecting Tikanan opens its collection track, its per-turn planet effects, and its political traits, with the party wheel at bottom right showing which ideologies that population feeds. The tooltip over the portrait states the improvement bargain in plain words (a better increment chance, paid for in Luxury resources). Frame at about 52.5s in the First Look US trailer (Steam). Disclosure: a trailer subtitle line runs across the empty bottom strip of the frame; it is trailer text, not game UI, and covers no panel.
