Yet, on average my income is about 5,000 mnei per turn. Normally, my income goes up for a few turns after I conquer a city, but then goes down to the normal level.
I try to set my taxes at the highest possible level (without people revolting). When I have money, I build roads and ports. When I take over a large city, I normally enslave the population to limit the risk of a revolt (should I not be doing it?).
I would be grateful if you could share your tips regarding how to make money.
Another unrelated question -- I hear a FM can receive a nickname, e.g. Africanvs. What other nicknames are there and is there any info on how to get them?
Thanks.
