^MARKETS Markets are a source of income for your empire. The more markets, the less their profits. ^END ^MINES Mines are a source of income for your empire. The more mines, the less their profits. ^END ^TOURISM Tourism is a source of income for your empire. The more tourist sites, the less their profits. ^END ^INDUSTRY Industry produces your War machines. They are useful for building up your defense while you worry about other things. They are generally more advantageous in the latter times, because the prices have risen, and your production does not decrease. Also, industry will use unused production capacity to produce money. This is useful in times of crisis. ^END ^CITIES Cities encourage people to move to your empire. People will travel from various places to come and live in your empire, which will enable you to earn taxes from them. ^END ^FARMS Farms are your source of food.
