Design Notes – Bergen Market Coverage

Rate═══════════════════ ════════════════════

🌊 Bryggen's extremely high trade center power is intentional - I personally wish Bergen's market could extend all the way to Denmark. This is more of a design choice than an attempt at balance.

historical background

════════════════════════════════ ═══════Bergen was founded around 1070 and quickly became Norway's most important city. From the 14th century onwards, Bryggen merchants of the Hanseatic League dominated Lofoten's lucrative dried fish trade. Bergen remained the de facto capital of Norway throughout the High Middle Ages, with royal halls, fortresses and magnificent churches.

The mod aims to reflect this historical importance through unique architectural expressions of Bergen's role as a Hanseatic city, royal center and Norwegian gateway to Catholic Europe.
