Council of Four

The Empire is made up of three kingdoms, each of which is living in an age of wealth and prosperity. Each kingdom is governed by a council of four nobles. Members of the six most powerful families sit on the council and lead the kingdoms.

Players become wealthy merchants and try to get permission to build their own commercial complexes in the cities of the three kingdoms. The one who gets more permission and at the same time opens a commercial complex in the best location will become the most famous merchant and win the game.
But beware of the Emperor! He will be on your side and will allow you to build without permission!
