Now that 's the ruler of his own land, he's really got his hands full! I'd like to dedicate a part of my book to the building of Barony . Who knows, one day my work might become a manual for beginning kings and queens.

  1. Appoint an advisor to a public post

    The Stag Lord didn't leave much of a legacy behind. Just terrified villagers in miserable local settlements, a gang of die-hard rogues in the woods, and an ancient fort that's been turned into the barony's dinky (at least for now) new capital. However, our baron hit the ground running and began gathering his council to make the Stolen Lands a prosperous place!

  2. Begin construction of a new building in the capital

    While the baron was busy with the council, sad news arrived from the capital. The last good barn fell apart. A replacement needs to be constructed quickly, before the neighbors give the settlement the humiliating name of "the Great Ruins."

  3. Add the Outskirts to the barony

    As soon as the baron got all the business in the capital handled, he focused his attention on the Outskirts, the nearest unowned land. The locals would feel much better under the leadership of Brevoy's protégé himself! At least, I should hope so...

  4. Found a new village on the Outskirts

    The ruler began taking care of his new subjects immediately after the annexation of the Outskirts. The foundation of a new village with thick-walled, warm houses was announced. Of course, they don't exist yet, but on paper, at least, it's better than the rundown huts with monsters around!

  5. Resolve ten events

    Ruling a barony is tough job, especially when new troubles arise on a regular basis! Fortunately, a true ruler can rely on their loyal advisers to handle even the most urgent of tasks — be it a bad harvest in one village or a bandit raid in another.

  6. Increase the rank of any barony's stat

    You can't build a strong nation by neglecting its problems. Even though our ruler keeps facing countless problems, the Stolen Lands get stronger as solves them!

  7. Unlock any secondary stat of your barony

    The stronger the barony and more perspicacious its ruler, the more new opportunities he has every day! Consistent and steady commitment to state affairs will inevitably bear fruit, and on top of that, it will create new openings for future Leaders!

  8. Occupy eight slots on the capital grid

    The baron has finished signing the decrees and orders and addressed the matters of his own capital's city planning. Judging by the drawings on the table in the throne room, the local subjects should expect a wave of city building!

  9. Found a new village

    Neighboring residents are attracted by your success. They want to relocate to your domain. But where should they settle? In new villages, of course! The baron will announce the new founding any day now.

  10. Upgrade your capital to the town

    Time flies by, and the good old villages just aren't enough for the growing barony. The baron decided that the capital of the Stolen Lands must grow larger and more respectable. To this effect, it must be upgraded.

  11. Upgrade another village to a town

    The experience with the capital was a success! It's time to upgrade another village to a bigger settlement.

  12. Expand the barony

    The barony, the formerly notorious Stolen Lands, has turned into a real country — albeit a rather small one, compared to the neighboring countries. It's time for the baron to look around and find more land to add to our domain (peacefully if possible)!

  13. Upgrade the capital to the city

    Restov's glory is the envy of all other rulers of the River Kingdoms. Our barony is no exception! How lucky he is to have a capital of his own, which can become a real capital city!

  14. Upgrade any region

    Now that the capital looks decent, it's time to take care of the subjects dwelling beyond the city walls. There are lots of them. Many inhabitants of the Stolen Lands live off the forests and fields.

  15. Turn the barony into an independent country

    Our baron has been working hard this whole time to turn the Stolen Lands into a real country—and he succeeded, despite the countless obstacles. Perhaps the time has come to replace the baron's wreath with a royal crown!

  16. Reach rank 8 of any barony's stats

    Ah! can now compete with other real kingdoms! Of course, our king knows best which steps to take first, but if you ask me, we should give assignments to our Leaders and see to it that the kingdom earns the best reputation in all the River Kingdoms!

  17. Add new lands to the kingdom

    Once again, it's time to conquer new lands... To tell you the truth, this is the part of governance I like the least, right up there with the term "annexation." Perhaps it's a good thing that I'm not a queen. My peace-loving nature wouldn't last long on the throne.
