00:01Ah, so you wish to be a Roman governor?
00:06Congratulations, the Emperor himself has deemed you worthy to take charge of these lands.
00:13Once struck by disaster, they're now ready for new leadership.
00:17Your leadership.
00:19Your story begins here, on a humble island with azure shores.
00:24Latium.
00:27Whether you dream of a bustling trade empire, or a conquest-driven dominion,
00:33no two cities will ever be the same, as every choice you make shapes your city in your image.
00:41Govern well, and the Emperor will sing your praises.
00:46Govern poorly, and, well, the consequences won't be pleasant.
00:52Every decision you make will shape your legacy.
00:56So how does one become a good governor?
01:01Hm, let's find out.
01:07Latium is where your journey begins, young governor.
01:11New beginnings are magical, but they're also full of hard work.
01:15First, lay down roads to keep your people connected.
01:19Organic layouts add charm, while efficient grids boost productivity.
01:24Start with dirt roads.
01:26They may be humble, but they're the first step on the path to greatness.
01:30Resources are your lifeblood.
01:33Wood from untouched forests will be essential.
01:36But manage your lumber camps wisely to maintain a sustainable supply.
01:41And remember, efficient logistics are key.
01:45Warehouses will keep goods flowing and production smooth.
01:49Your residents need more than just work.
01:52They need homes.
01:53Build neighborhoods that suit your city's vision.
01:56Markets drive income and population growth, while taverns keep spirits high.
02:01Oh, and mind the fire hazards, especially the bakeries.
02:07Fires are practically a Roman tradition.
02:13Just be mindful of your city's layout.
02:16Residents will love lavender's sweet scent.
02:19But they won't be so fond of the pig farm's stench.
02:22Whew!
02:24Balance charm and profit wisely.
02:27A governor must also live among the people.
02:30Establish your own villa as a sign of stability and leadership.
02:34Meet your people's needs, and they'll advance.
02:37Unlocking new industries and opportunities.
02:45A resilient economy is vital.
02:47Stockpile resources and prepare for challenges.
02:51As not every island will yield the goods you desire.
02:54Trade is key to securing essential items.
02:57But keep an eye on rival governors.
03:00Not all share your vision of cooperation.
03:03Diplomacy may seem wise, but some rivals favor force.
03:08Protect your trade routes with armed escorts and fortified ports.
03:13And beware of pirates.
03:16A well-defended harbor keeps your goods safe from thieving hands.
03:27As your city prospers, your people's desires grow.
03:31Fine goods, entertainment, and culture become their demands.
03:35Libraries and grammatical schools pave the way for technological advancements.
03:40Public service buildings like bathhouses boost health, while theatres keep happiness high.
03:47Grand monuments like the Colosseum bring prestige and secure the emperor's favor.
03:53Never underestimate the power of reputation.
03:56After all, it's the key to lasting legacy.
03:59Faith unites your people and strengthens your leadership.
04:09Each island may dedicate itself to a single deity.
04:13But shrines for other gods are welcome.
04:16Believing in Neptune grants faster ships and bountiful sea production.
04:22While believing in Mars empowers your soldiers and bolsters your army's morale.
04:28Choose your patron god wisely.
04:31As faith will shape your province's destiny.
04:35Expand through diplomacy or force.
04:41The choice is yours.
04:43Trade and alliances can build a sprawling network.
04:46But conquest secures your rule.
04:49Aqueducts fuel growth, while fortresses guard your borders.
04:55Prepare your military to defend your ambitions.
04:59Whether close combat or long-range firepower, your strategy will determine your legacy.
05:06Your rule may extend to lands beyond the empire, like Albion, where Celts resist Roman influence.
05:17Trust me, governor.
05:19It's a wild place.
05:21Will you protect Celtic traditions or remain loyal to Roman ambition?
05:33Your choices will determine your fate.
05:38A prosperous metropolis or a city in bankruptcy.
05:43Forge your legacy and become the governor you were meant to be.
05:47Begin your journey.
05:48Wishlist.
05:49Now.
05:50Begin in thesemb掃s.
05:51試 it alright again.
05:52Begin your journey.
05:53Wishlist.
05:54Now.
