In the medieval era, assume the role of a lord and engage with other lords,develop fiefdoms, and employ strategies involving intrigue, warfare, and plunder. Expand your territory and strengthen your house lineage Or, be a god, manipulate the world? This game primarily strategic role-playing elements
On the left are the data for each territory, from top to bottom:

Feudal type: Manor, Castle, City
Manor primarily produces food. Other data is an intermediate layer between castles and cities, where all buildings can be constructed.
Castles are the main producers of knights. Some city buildings such as schools and markets cannot be built. When a manor is upgraded to a castle, the required buildings for cities will be automatically demolished. Castles also serve as territories that forcibly reduce the probability of surrender for manors and cities during attacks.
Cities mainly produce taxes and have mostly citizens with very low food and knight production. Food needs to be allocated or else citizens may emigrate. Castles cannot build required structures in cities.
Development points: Additional development points are obtained when territories are expanded, which can be used to construct buildings. Insufficient development points will prevent construction.
Knights: The strongest heavy cavalry in combat, their efficiency is influenced by character knights' battle effects; they require funding.
Citizens: Main source of tax revenue and provide some well-equipped soldiers; if there's not enough food, there's a chance they'll become immigrants.
Serfs: Main producers of food who give all their output to local lords but can eat lord's food for free; if local food runs out, they face starvation; they also serve as main personnel accompanying knights on expeditions based on service ratios but cannot leave the territory or become refugees.
Freemen: Auxiliary producers of food who submit part of it according to lord's tax laws while keeping some for themselves based on average surplus per freeman in the territory; consume 1 unit of grain per month and buy lord's grain when there isn't enough or migrate or become serfs if no grain available; primary personnel for equipping low-level troops.
Priests: Increase missionary numbers but require funding.
Refugees: Citizens and freemen dissatisfied with their need for loyalty may turn into refugees then move to neighboring provinces.
Religion population only counts citizens, freemen, serfs & refugees - Knights & priests default view same faith as lords - Mouse over each population shows specific religious populations
Tax rate changes within feudal taxation law have obvious effects - Higher rates result in lower loyalty
Food (grain): Mainly produced by serfs & freemen with storage limit provided by granary indicated after number – exceeding limit causes proportional damage – certain bonuses can reduce damage proportion
Loyalty decreases chances of small-scale migration due to dissatisfaction among people leading eventually towards independence – If not handled promptly could lead province joining other countries or becoming vassals making it difficult reclaiming later
Health determines likelihoods outbreak epidemic & population growth
Epidemic once outbreak has two figures maximum rounds vs current round–when current reaches max rounds epidemic ends–graveyard prevents increase max rounds during outbreaks–hospital has small chance directly end epidemics
Average surplus per Freeman After annual September harvest remaining grains distributed equally among Freemen consuming 1 grain monthly- insufficient grains purchase from territorial stockpile/migrate/become Serf
Legitimacy Non-legitimate occupation requires 30 years assimilation period changing corresponding culture-some bonuses decrease this requirement year count
Fertility correction coefficient affecting grain output-reduces fertility after annual harvest-can adjust fallow ratio every November allowing some fields recover nutrients-specific slider adjustment shown right side each territory data-fallow directly affects grain output ratio
School Cultural research point production reduces loyalty
Tavern Increases loyalty affects health liquor tax
Training ground Knight production unavailable in city
Monastery Brainwashing missionaries
Granary Increases Grain Storage Limit
Mill Increases Grain Output Mill Tax
Hospital Small chance directly end epidemics increases health
Dung heap Increases Health
Graveyard Reduces extension probability during epidemic
Blacksmith Tax income equipment output
Market Tax income trade tax
Port Tax income additional grain output Port tax
Gold mine Eventual large income after exploration
Shipyard Warship production incurs cost
Expansion Adds development points post-upgrade
Coastal territories possess shipyards/port functions
Manor serves as basic territory automatically transforming into castle/city upon meeting building requirements-all non-buildable structures will be demolished-transforming these types back into manors demolishes required structures turning them back into manors

Some sea areas feature blue dots indicating naval bases considered part territorial data-naval bases enable maritime invasion triggering naval battles-if no war targets multiple lords' warships present probabilistically trigger friction/losses-evenually occupied by one lord-country owning naval base gains bonus taxes/trade taxes
If you want invade Northern Europe from Britain Island send your built warships North Sea three naval bases until opponent withdraws considered occupied-one-by-one occupy before invading Northern Europe-default start owned by Danes
No visual representation naval battles currently planned-only notifications sent! Military interface includes dedicated maritime control interface/warship deployment
A single fiefdom may have numerous sea area warships displayed here-adjust/change sea area warship quantity according needs
