Stage 4F · Coalition Influence
Scientific territory across the coalition network.
Each discipline is a 37-hex territory. Influence is allocated from accepted coalition dataset credit, so major coalitions form large holdings while smaller coalitions can still retain visible research enclaves.

Hover a tile for its holder and influence. Striped frontier tiles mark close neighboring rivals; muted gray holdings aggregate the long tail of very small coalitions.

How hex control is assigned
Each science discipline uses a radius-three hex territory, giving enough resolution for leaders, challengers, and smaller enclaves.
Only accepted coalition dataset contribution credit counts. Overall coalition score, member count, cash, and RP do not directly control territory.
The top 12 coalitions in a discipline are individually represented. Coalitions at 2%+ influence can also appear, up to 16 named holders. Each represented holder receives at least one hex.
Remaining coalitions are combined into a gray Minor Coalition Network holding so hundreds of tiny entries do not make the map unreadable.
Adjacent rival holdings are striped only when both coalitions hold at least 5% of that discipline. A gap of 10 percentage points or less is contested; 5 points or less is highly contested.
Coalition colors are generated deterministically from the coalition name, so the same coalition keeps the same map color between visits.
