Happiness 
is a value tracked independently for each city. Cities gain or lose Happiness each year from various sources, and can also experience one-time increases or decreases. A lose of Happiness is called Discontent 
, so that changes are always positive numbers: it is either a gain of Happiness or a gain of Discontent .
A new city starts with a Discontent Level of 1. When the city accumulates enough Discontent (100 + 10*level) , it gains a new Discontent Level. Each Discontent Level increases city Maintenance 
and reduces Science 
by 5%. It also decreases the opinion of the city's family by 20.
When the city starts to gain Happiness instead, its Discontent Level goes down, eventually becoming a Happiness Level starting at level 1 and growing at the same rate as for Discontent Levels (100 + 10*level). Happiness Levels increase city Growth 
and reduces city Maintenance by 5% each.
