ALL HAIL THE KING! *Is still celebrating* You already know so much of my plans....but if we want to talk economics.....Here' a scaled-down version of my proposition on the towns and economy:
Basicly, all towns should be granted economic autonomy to decide upon their own industries, however there are stipulations to this freedom. All towns must be able to provide for theirselves, and must be producing a certain excess to add to the Kingdom. For example, say the town on Scimitar Peninsula is a producer of naval warfare technology and armament. They'd be expected to be able to arm all their citizens and fill their harbors with ships, but also be able to send some armors and weapons to the capital and be able to help fortify the naval front of Dustari with warships, not a lot but enough to make a noticible contribution. After these conditions are fufilled, the towns are free to do as they please with their remaining tangible assets. They can import and export as their budgets will allow, and towns that do well econoicly, socially, and in other ways will be rewarded by the Kingdom. The only real restrictions on exportation and importation are that A) Goods may not exported to hostile Kingdoms, save in the case of a trade agreement; B) Goods may not be imported from hostile countries, except upon the above arangement; and C) In the case of a trade embargo, support will be given by the Kingdom to any town suffering from it. |
