What builds it

These buildings strengthen the belief where it is already held. How much they add depends on how strong it already is there: the columns run from a weak minority (1) to where it is the majority.

Where	1	2	3	majority	Where	1	2	3	majority	Where	1	2	3	majority	Where	1	2	3	majority

These buildings add the belief only where it is not held yet; that is how it spreads to new regions:
