Espionage is important because often times having enough intelligence on different civilizations can 
keep random bad things from happening. There are terrorist plots, intrigues and other things that are 
somewhat intangible that having a reasonable level of intelligence on those civilizations can protect 
you from.  
 
Tip: The amount of benefit you get for the money you spend is related to their population size, and a 
variety of constants. Once you have established a certain level of espionage, you can reduce your 
expenditure on it, to just keep up with their population growth (if any). 
 
Destabilizing is extremely powerful but beware, it can permanently damage your relations with that 
civilization. Use destabilization only as a last resort where you plan to annihilate that civilization. 
 
Tip: At higher levels of intelligence the other civilizations will react to the morale problems caused 
by the destabilization even if they don’t know who is doing it. This includes building social 
improvements, lowering taxes, and using propaganda. (The better the AI, the more efficiently it will 
react, and the more finely tuned will be its reactions.) So spending on destabilization may just make 
them redirect some resources from other things, rather than wrecking their economy or leading 
planets to defect. 
  
Diplomacy 
When you press the “Speak to..” button on the star system view or in the foreign policy view the 
diplomacy window is brought up.

Other civilizations are not only snappy dressers, they have very complex personalities behind them. 
Each civilization has its own unique strategy engine working behind it and hence how it will react to 
you may be slightly to dramatically different than how others would react.  
 
You can trade a wide range of technologies and treaties that you can negotiate. Your ability to 
convince them to do what you want is largely based on your diplomacy ability.
