Description

[Edit] [History]

In the 6th century A.D., ruled by Emperor Giustiniano (commonly Anglicized as 'Justinian'), Constantinopolis was the largest emporium in the Byzantine Empire. Built onshore of the Marmara sea, at the entrance of Bosforo pass, its position led it to the role of one of the most important harbors. The quickly expanding trades and exports to close cities were great opportunities for the local businessman to grow their riches.

Tiles in Latin, consistent with Giustiniano's time, are both a reference to the high period of Costantinopolis and a way to make the game entirely language independent.
