Road to the Crown

Political marriage, war taxes, subsidies, a tribute... All those terms sound nice when one juggles them from behind the screen of his trusty computer! Junk food? Check. Sugary drinks that will cause me diabetes? Check. Two weeks of leave from the work? Check. A fresh copy of the newly released game finishing downloading as I'm going back from the grocery store? Check. Oops! My emotions got better to me, and I tripped on the stairs. I'm so silly! Then... Why the hell am I kneeling in a throne room, watching the marriage and coronation ceremony of the King, dressed in the noble robes with the game itself only flashing in the corner of my eyes?

Political talk

24th June 1574

"Yeah. The city itself won't have that many defences, so I need a place where all the workers can run away to in case of danger while deterring any possible invasion from ever reaching for this place. As for more mundane reasons… While it's only a matter of time before I will get all the nobles in the country to buy the cement mix off me to lay down the roads across the entire Commonwealth, for the time being, I simply need another way to use it all up, especially with how I aim to expand its production."

Initially, the main limiting factor behind the scale of production for the cement was not the availability of the raw deposit of the resources in the area, but the horsepower that could be provided with the limited amount of the steam horses.
