Talk:Madina Gardens
For the sake of Medieval roleplaying ( ;) ): Small villages or settlements around a city didn't quite exist back in the Medieval centuries. The situation was a city with different kinds of economy things, and around it fields and from time to time a farm near the fields for storage and stuff like that, and a brave farmer to live near the fields instead of safely guarded by walls and town militia. Even the cattle was kept inside the city if it was possible. And since the city was most often built around a harbour, the fishing income was in the city as well, as well as beer production, bread guilds and such things. All needed to be protected from invasions and attacks, that's why it was protected in the city. Medium 14:23, 24 January 2008 (CET)
