Category:Economic Holdings

__NOCATEGORYGALLERY__ Economic holdings are settlements which economic activities are made. Villages, cities, and trading ports are economic holdings. These holdings are mainly used for taxation, but can have buildings to raise armies and militias when needed. Walled cities are not considered castles, as castles are mainly for military purposes with few civilian activities and buildings. A city can be heavily fortified with walls, towers, and gates to fend off invaders. Leaders of economic holdings belong to the burgher class, classified into  village elders, mayors, or trademasters depending on the type of economic holding.
