How to civs

How to civ =================== Hello dear reader! Allow me to kick things off by first saying thankyou for picking up my book. From here on I'll be giving my own advice on how one might properly civ. My writing is heavely influenced be Jared Diamond a

proffesor of geography at UCLA. Let us start from the very start shall we? You and a group of friends have just established there own homes and a farm and wish to become more, you wish to rise up above the great cities such as

Orion, Aurora, Holy Tree, New Danzilona and many like it. So let us first explore what makes these places so very successful. They all have had experience in the business of expansion and managment of there assets.

I'm here to help you in gaining some of that important knoledge. Let us start with religion. A successful civ will have a religion that supports and guides the leading kleptocrat. A good example of this is the grand Lorax in Holy Tree providing

support and guidance to the chancellor. An important process that you should ensure is always taking place is the circulation of goods. Say that in New Danzilona the farmers yield fifteen double chests worth of wheat and give it to

Trackball. It is his job as a person of power in NDZ to manage the wheat wisely turning the majority into bread and trading the rest away. To get the bread back to the people who harvested the wheat he can throw a large feast or a festival and keep a

portion of the bread for himself. It is important to note that this is not the only example of this and it should be happening with virtualy all the goods coming into the city. Internal conflicts within the city should become formalized by

law, a judiciary, and police. While all of this is not neccessary they certainly all benifit from each other. It's a good idea to keep all laws written and within plain view of ones citizens. Providing people with a type of luxary good can also work

to keep the people happy and complacent which in turn will increase there return rate. Things like Cookies, Emeralds, books, and other novelty items are all perfect for the task. That's all I have for this book. I hope i've helped to clear some

things up if you were looking to start your own civ or make your current one more successful. I'll be likely to go over the subject again and in more detail later so make sure to write me if you'd like to hear more. This has been Gantoes look on Civs

and I hope that it has helped. -END
