Chapter 57 - Empire Gears



Meanwhile, Marco had already reached Honduras, the conquest of the coast of Quintana Roo and Belize was quite simple due to the Mayan populations who preferred to join the empire than fight.

Thanks to this, the population of the empire has increased and with it, merchants can sell their products to a larger audience.

The economy of Roma Nova is divided into two types the internal and external economy:

The internal economy is occupied by merchants, citizens and the government that inhabit the empire, they occupy the Denar as their currency, any good or service is paid with it when a new place joins the empire it begins to enjoy all the obligations and rights.

Once any population is annexed to the empire, an officer in charge who covers the assets of each new citizen comes to go, he does not only go with a representative of the Mayan peoples and a priest or priestess, with a small guard composed of 5 members.

When they arrive at the place the names of each citizen are registered and they are made a steel plate that contains a unique numerical series this to give an identity to each new citizen, storing the name is complicated would take up a lot of space.

But the number is different, it can be stored and classified as "Exemplary" - "Normal" - "Bad" citizen and you can also tell if someone is a dangerous person.

These numbers and their information are kept in the place of birth of the person, in the capital of the province and the imperial registry in Origin Civitatem.

When a citizen wants to receive medical service in another province, he only needs to have his number with the doctors, they can help him if necessary, the patient’s medical history is requested to the province of origin, when the medical record arrives, the patient is treated once Finished this information is sent back to the province.

For all this to work Flavio since he was in the region of Lusitania, established the creation of the courier and imperial couriers, the so-called postal codes were created with which postal districts are created, with these letters or packages sent by citizens or The government can arrive without problems.

When a letter leaves a postal district, it does so with its postal code and the address to which it is directed, for example:

Something is sent from the province of Imperial Origin with code 0020 to the province of Insulae Canibalium with code 2110.

In order to read the numbers, it must be understood that the first number corresponds to the province in this case the imperial province is 0 because it is the first province, Americae Centralis would be number 1 and Insulae Canibalium 2, the number is depending on the date of the creation of the province "But what happens if the province is number 10"

Flavio developed a simple solution to place a letter before the number, therefore, A1000 refers to province 10 if B1000 is placed it refers to province 11.

The second number refers to whether the shipment is civil, military, religious or special, 0 is used for military, 1 for civil, 2 for religious and 3 for the special are shipments that cannot be classified whether they belong for example to the inquisition or the imperial family.

The third number refers to whether the shipment will be received at the Post Office (0), Address (1) or place of government (2). (It will always be the sender’s code 0 unless it is sent from a government building such as a hospital, in that case, it would be 2)

For the last digit, it refers to whether what is sent is Envelope (0) or Package (1).

Therefore the previous example "Something is sent from the Imperial Origin province with code 0020 to the province of Insulae Canibalium with code 2110."

It is read, An envelope from the province of Imperial Origin of military origin is sent that was sent a place of government to the province Insulae Canibalium with civil reception to a domicile.

With this, the courier and imperial mails are clear where to send them, once they arrive in the destination province the mailmen are responsible for reading the address and taking them to the destination.

Thanks to all this if a citizen violates the law in a province, his number will be sent to other provinces so that his database is updated, all this is quite complicated but it allows to keep a record with which many things can be avoided in the future.

Returning to the subject of the foreign economy, it is used to exchange resources with friendly nations such as the Mixtecs and Zapotecs, material goods are used to make the exchange.

Thanks to this trade, the empire began to sow ideas to merchants that while they are with the empire can receive enough privileges that they will not get in their home nations.

All of the above is important as while Marcó conquers his province of Americae Centralis, a wave of immigration begins to arrive from the nucleus of the jungle, many Mayans are tempted to belong to this great empire they also arrive from the center of Mexico and even from northern regions.

This is only possible thanks to the efforts of the population and the government that with their actions call others to enjoy the Pax Romana ...
