Terrains

Terrains provide many important functions for your cities:

Natural terrains are often the most efficient sources of food and resources
Houses are important for keeping citizens housed and happy
Public space keeps your citizens happy and raises your maximum culture level
Trading terrains provide the trade capacity needed to attract trading companies to your city
Food comes from natural terrains, fishing, pastureland, agriculture, food industry workshops, and cottages.
Workshops make durable goods for the citizens' everyday needs.
Manufactories make luxury goods.
Processor industries can make materials used by other industries.
Military terrains can keep your citizens safe from unfriendly neighbours.
Upgrading your city centres can help your city
Landwork can improve natural terrain.
You can also build the quaint Old Country architecture, but not the unpleasant rebel fabrications
