In a beautiful, fertile valley you have arrived to plant the seeds of empire. While the local area has many useful assets, it is through connections with the wider world that you will truly gain all that you require to build a magnificent city.
Plan carefully and build wisely, for it is not just a city that you build here, but a people who are the future of civilization. Greatness for Rome begins at home, and it is up to you to ensure that it fulfills its destiny!
