[quote=MrFoxNews] I know plenty about German history and my heritage. Being that it is 1700 you should look to Prussian era culture, very militaristic and Imperialistic. Honored blood was something mentioned often back then.Although Numburg seeks to be diplomatic over militaristic, much of the sense of national pride and culture may be seen.Numburg merchants are very interested to see what the Lance Empire has to offer economically. Citizens are happy to know that German people's are finally coming together once again. [/quote] Well I got the militaristic parts and imperialism parts down. They were built on conquering and expanding the Empire, hence part of the reason why I keep on picking people to target. All citizens are expected to take pride in the glory of the Empire and celebrate there culture. I also don't know what you mean by honored blood. Lance Empire is huge, so its bound to have a lot of different materials. Also as apart of one my attempts to improve GDP and make my self more attractive for trade is to make special economic zones in the Lance Empire where its free market and business isn't entirely run by the government or only has a few restrictions. This will likely allow for the growth of trade within the Lance Empire and make port cities grow.
