The Taxation System for the Roman Empire,

There will be 8 different levels of cities each with its own starting population, basic income and population increase,
*Payments from Settlements will be done every game year or every 4 days*
Village - 1000 people - 500 denarii - 200people everyday
Small Town - 4000 people - 2000 denarii - 400 people everyday
Large town - 8000 people - 4000 denarii - 800 people everyday
Huge town- 16000 people - 8000 denarii - 1600 people
Once you achieve city status it changes,
Small city - 32000 people - 16000 denarii - 3200 people everyday
Large city - 64000 people - 32000 denarii - 6400 people everyday

Now there are resource cities which will add more income depending on the size of your city,
*Resources will be paid every 2 days or half a game year*

GOVERNORS REMEMBER THIS HERE!

You must provide food to your people at all times. The number should always be greater then the population. It takes a person to eat 1 unit of fish or grain per year. So for 100,000 people in your province your expected to supply 100k or more per year!

If you do not supply this amount civil disorder will kick in and population will decrease depending on how much food you actually have. Example: you have 98k grain and 100k, meaning this year 2k people will leave your settlement.

Rebellion doesn't tend to happen until these factors have been met:


*City is losing population.
*If at least 25% of the cities population has left, a rebel army will appear near your province.

Depending on your provinces wealth and technological advances we can determine the ai army.

lvl 1-3 cities= 5 units of peasant; 2 of light infantry; 1 heavy cavalry. stack of 8.
lvl 4-6 cities= 6 light infantry; 5 heavy infantry; 1 archer; 2 heavy cavalry. stack of 14.
lvl 7-8 cities= 8 light infantry; 6 heavy infantry; 2 archer; 4 heavy cavalry. FULL STACK!

how do you know what levels your citys are on??

me and Darth are putting up a starting list at midnight!
