Life as the Mongolian Napoleon

*Between other coursework, actual work, and overall life in general, play time has decreased. Viewer discretion is advised.*


          Speaking for my empire, which is a hot mess at this point, we do not have many networks of exchange.  Our land, which has an immense amount of farmland and river areas, are not being used for those things.  Instead, I'm building an army, taking that army, and losing most of that army in stupid skirmishes across the map.

          The more production you have within your empire, the better chance that you will be able to trade with more empires.  This leads to an economic boom and possibly more food for your empire, providing that the plots that you are developing are food-based.

          Much like the Silk roads and other trade routes we discussed in class, there are trade routes that occur within the game.  Nobody has sent one to my empire, but you can visibly see them crossing lands.  The only trade that has been done between my empire and others is for embassies.
