-If two Great Powers each gain control of 17 or more SCs at the same time, the player representing the Great Power with the most SCs is considered the winner.

 Players may terminate the game by mutual agreement before a winner is determined. If this occurs, any decision reached by the players (e.g., concede game to one player, concede game to an alliance) must be accepted unanimously. If the players cannot agree, all players who still have pieces on the board when the game ends share equally in a draw.
