Chapter 75, Big Fat Meat_1

The next day, early in the morning, people began to measure the land. The Kingdom had clear regulations about the size of territories, and depending on various natural conditions, noble territories varied in size.

Normal baron's territories were approximately between 120 square kilometers to 300 square kilometers in size. In special cases, territories could encompass thousands of square kilometers or be as small as tiny morsels of land.

Generally speaking, territories in fertile plains where irrigation was easy or busy commercial hubs at crossroads were relatively small.

Conversely, territories located in difficult-to-cultivate mountain arenas with troublesome irrigation and inconvenient transportation were larger. Territories in the Northland, constantly under threat from the Orcs, also tended to be slightly bigger.

If the area was a desert, only the oasis was considered, with the desert itself as an additional bonus; hence, every desert lord's territory was enormous.
