Territory is a fixed, non-changeable division of the World map into a small region. Territories are randomly generated at the start of each game.
Types and Tiles[]
A territory consists of multiple Tiles, but those tiles can only be from one type of biome. This rule has one exception when the territory containing water tiles. A territory can contain land and water tiles or can contain only one of them. If the territory only containing water tiles the territory become un-settleable and no one can own it.
Ownership and Control[]
To be able to do any action with in the Territory an Empire has to claim it by building a City or an Outpost in it. But keep in mind only Outposts can be relocated.
Each Territory can be controlled by no more than a single City or Outpost. It is possible to combine multiple Territories to reduce the number of Cities required to control them. (Read more about city expansion in the main article: City)
