Kingdom of Charlemagne (Age of Charlemagne) Port Level 3

Shipwright

For all those states bordering the Mediterranean it was vital to command the seas around their land. Any people wishing to expand looked to control trade routes and invade other countries by sea. It was far easier to sail 1000km than march a tenth of that distance. Good ports were the key, where shipbuilding yards were found cheek-by-jowl with markets, naval garrisons and countless sea-based traders. A wharf can be anything from a single bank of masonry to a labyrinthine construction of berths, so long as at least one ship can dock successfully and unload its cargo. A military wharf is no different; a navy needs a place to resupply, re-arm and recoup in between sorties. The drydock, an inset basin that could drain and flood as necessary for the repair of ships, was devised in Ptolemaic Egypt sometime after 204BC. The drydock had numerous advantages, namely that ships no longer had to be repaired or constructed in an inopportune location before being dragged seaward for floating, providing a more stable footing upon which to build navies.
