Wow, that means a barbarian village making 1000mnai a turn is pretty rich

Mnai in real history are not worth the same amount comparitively across the EB time frame. They had inflation back then as well.

Also, men in a unit is only a representation for EB. You cant conquer much with a 3000 man army!

Of course you can't. I think Imperator Invictus was just curious about the theoretical worth of 1 mnai.

Some Celtic cities were known for their wealth because of trade such as metal working etc. They were not afraid to flaunt this wealth and unlike the Romans who wore only a little jewellery the Celtic people wore as much wealth on them as possible from gold torcs to broaches to even seams in their clothes.

This is completely un-related to EB, but how does interest work? Or rather why do we even have it?

Interest is basically a fee paid to use someone else's money. If you borrow from the bank, you pay them back what you borrowed plus a little extra as payment for using their money. Likewise, if you invest in a savings account, a savings bond, etc... you are letting the bank use your money and when you withdraw or cash in, you'll get a little extra

(usually much less than the bank gets on interest from loans

) for letting them use your money.

Hope this helps.
