Overview

Every province is a town. It has its own buildings, its own people and its own stores of wood, iron and stone. This chapter covers what happens inside those walls.

Capital and other provinces

Your first province is your capital. It is the only province with a university, a temple, a market and a bank, and it gets extra production and happiness. Provinces you annex later start smaller and build up from there.

In this chapter

1. Buildings: every building, how construction works, and what each level costs.
2. Population: how your people grow, houses, farms and workers.
3. Happiness: the happiness target and everything that moves it.
4. Tax: every tax level and what it costs you in happiness.
5. The castle: the building your whole province leans on.
6. Temple and feasts: free chests and quick happiness.
