Still that's asking for death although there really isn't anything you can do about it if you don't have iron can't even lock them up.

It's not as easy maintaining an iron grip as you'd think.

IRL, no iron-grip society lasts more than a few generations...everyone loosens up eventually.

The Empire of Ladvicitavoi lasted for more than a few generations under Alexi Romanov. But you are right.

lol...I know it's not easy...I've found that out

...I just said it'd make things right...as in less competetion and threats from others...if a group can't build the things they need to defeat you then they've already lost...which is how Lad added Naron to the Empire, Naron just couldn't compete...and the same will happen if Karnon Empire maintains control of the iron on the new island.

If it weren't for the fact that I kow the Emperor of Karnon is inactive, I'd say it could be you, judging by the amount of evil twisted smilies

Well I always beleived in taking over places diplomatically then by warfare. If you have a nice trade route going with the place there is no need to take it over. It's once there are restrictions that causes problems and revolt.
