Prestige UI, badges, and breakdown page (P4.1C)
2026-03-25
- **Profile badges**: Nations earn permanent prestige badges at each tier milestone — *Notable Nation* (tier 1), *Trusted Contractor* (tier 2), *Eminent Power* (tier 3), *Illustrious Empire* (tier 4), and *Legendary Legacy* (tier 5). Badges are tracked via peak tier and **persist through prestige decay**.
- **Title display**: The prestige tier title (e.g. "Distinguished") is now displayed on public nation profiles and in the Nations Directory alongside each nation's name.
- **Prestige breakdown page**: A new page at `/nations/[id]/prestige` shows prestige score, earned badges, tier thresholds with achieved/locked status, decay settings, prestige sources reference table, and recent prestige event history (last 20 accumulations and decay events).
- **Directory integration**: Prestige titles appear as chips under nation names in the Nations Directory for nations that have earned one.
