The previous era is the Neolithic Era. The next era is the Classical Era.

In-game description: "Marked by the large-scale smelting of bronze, as well as the beginnings of urbanization and widespread use of the wheel and plow".

Intro[]

Ah, the challenges of a young civilization. It's hard keeping up with the neighbors when they have the wheel, and you don't... Humankind learns quickly that everyone contributes: if you're terrified of wild animals you can grow lentils or catch fish.

Tribes settle towns: towns develop markets: and markets begin the exchange of goods, services, and -most important- rumors and hearsay.
