jobs to go around. Unrest can do serious damage —

avoid it at all costs. And remember that unwise

decisions may have repercussions far into the

future!

A strong economy will naturally enhance the other

aspects of city and province management. It will allow

you to build a stronger military, a more extensive road

network, and more cultural luxuries for your citizens.

If your lands are wealthy, powerful, and peaceful, you

are on your way to the Emperor’s throne. Good Luck!

General Strategies

Please consult the Tips sections of each feature or

structure (accessed through the Query panel) for

strategy tips specific to each feature.

* Start your city close to the river; it will be cheaper

to supply with water, and to defend with walls (as a

river without bridges cannot be crossed by

enemies).

* Try to arrange housing blocks and the

structures that they need so that multiple

blocks can take advantage of the same

structures.

* Don’t expand too quickly; you have a

limited treasury at the start of the city, and

you should concentrate on spending it to

build housing and population that can

generate MORE Denarii.
