I've played civilization and I'm pretty sure there's other forms of government besides Communism and Monarchy that have low corruption, albeit lacking the ability to force the citizens into war on the leader's whim.

Isnt civilization the game where "democracy" has 0 corruption? I think its kinda biased and not exactly based on reality

Corruption is a matter of individuals rather than the form of government. Any human system is bound to be corruptible since it involves humans.

I think a strong anti corruption culture is the best defense against it.
