Citizens are a measure of the stability and prosperity of your city. Players will have to consider their citizen’s grievances and act accordingly to sustain a healthy and happy population.

If players do not login for long periods of time or are conquered or massacred by other players, they may lose public support. Therefore, it is important for players to check in on the happiness of their citizens frequently.

 Setting a high tax rate or seizing resources from the population will cause players to lose public support. This may result in citizens leaving the player’s city, crippling their production and military. If a player’s citizens morale drops too low, they may riot, further disrupting the player’s city. A city’s population will update every 6 minutes so be sure to plan construction and military training around this. If there aren’t enough personal to occupy all jobs, production and building efficiency will suffer.
