Citizenship Eras & Pricing
The price of citizenship rises in ten fixed eras, not after every single passport. This keeps the schedule predictable: you always know exactly what the next era costs and how many passports remain before it begins.
Each era's price reflects one fact: demand for citizenship has grown. The first hundred citizens took a chance on a country that did not yet exist. Every citizen after them arrives with more certainty and pays accordingly.
This is not a promise of future value. Citizenship is not an investment, and The 8th Continent makes no claim that any passport will be worth more than its original citizenship fee. The pricing eras are a historical record of participation, not a market.

How the Price Is Determined
Each era covers a fixed range of citizen numbers at a fixed price. When you begin checkout, the server looks up the next available citizen number and charges the price attached to whichever era contains that number — no bidding, no dynamic pricing, no surprises.
Your original citizenship fee and era are permanently attached to your passport history, even after prices rise further. The current price and your original price may be shown side by side as historical context — never as a guarantee of resale value.
Citizen #10,000
The final passport is not sold through standard checkout. When Citizen #9,999 is issued, standard immigration closes and a public auction begins for the last citizenship. Its holder is remembered as the Final Founder.
