Part 6/13:
A Type 3 civilization harnesses the energy of an entire galaxy, utilizing up to (10^{36}) watts. Such a civilization could manipulate stars, black holes, and even control gravitational forces across vast distances, deploying extraordinary technologies like galactic-scale engineering.
Living within a Type 3 civilization would entail inhabiting mega structures or engineered worlds spread throughout the galaxy. Communication systems would allow instantaneous thought-sharing across vast distances, leading to profound societal diversity, rich cultural fabrics, and forms of governance that surpass our current political systems.
