Wonders are remarkable improvements that can only be built once. Wonders are urban improvements, built by worker units on a valid map tile inside the borders of a city at or above the appropriate Cultural level. Although constructing a wonder costs a large amount of resources and takes longer than other improvements, they grant powerful bonuses when completed. Completing a wonder also grants 2 Victory points to the nation and a Legitimacy boost to the leader. When a nation begins building a wonder, all other nations will be notified (even if that nation hadn't been met) and will not be able to build the same wonder for the rest of the game.
