Cities

• What does infrastructure do?
  • Infrastructure in a city increases the amount of people that can live in the city.
• What are disease and crime rates?
  • Disease and crime rates are indicative of how many people are being killed through sickness and violence. Minimizing these factors will increase the population in the city.
• What does population density do?
  • Population density is the amount of people divided by the land area of the city. Having a high population density means your citizens are in close contact and more vulnerable to sickness. Having a lower population density will reduce your disease rate.
• Why aren't my improvements doing anything?
  • If the improvement in question is part of a category with a indicator, that means your city needs to be powered for the improvement to take effect.

  • Why not?
• Why does my alliance have a color?
