About this game
This lavishly illustrated card game has players compete to collect enough countries around the world to enforce one of four types of PAX or world peace. Each of the 48 country cards has it outlined on a map, with its name, a region, a point value, possible PAX support and a brief description. Poker chips are used to bid for cards and count for scoring. There are four possible PAX coalitions: Pax Americana, Pax Europeana, Pax Atlantica or Pax Muscovita ("a peace dictated from Moscow").

Rules
Each player is dealt 5 country cards and gets 100 points in chips. Cards are turned over and auctioned one at a time, with the winner paying into the pot. Play continues until a player can form a PAX set. If the deck runs out without a PAX, there are three rounds of trading. Winner gets points equal to the pot; others subtract difference between the starting 100 and what they have left. Start a new round and repeat until one player reaches an agreed total.
