Wed, 18 Jan 2012 12:48:39 GMT

Some terrain types are more difficult to cross over than others are, so when an army passes over a non-native terrain type, it moves at a slower pace. Troops native to a certain terrain type don't get as much of a movement penalty on their native terrain because they have lived on that terrain all their lives. Below is a chart indicating the penalties an army will gain for passing over a certain terrain type and a list of what alignments are native to what type of terrains.

Population EmpireEarth

It is estimated that right before the widespread adoption of agriculture there were only between 5 and 10 million human beings on Earth. By 1 AD, several thousand years later, the population had surged to approximately 300 million worldwide.

As a result, the world population grew more slowly, not...
