Aksum Military Tier 4

Iron Tax

Greatness in arms must be paid for.

War is a drain on a nation's collective resource more than anything else, especially in antiquity. Even outside of the industrial and agricultural systems, armies often used nature, fashioning siege equipment and defences out of trees and the land around them. Every aspect of society felt the strain of waging conquest or defending against invaders. Men from the Sassanid Empire were drafted from the peasantry to fight, and most likely die, for their lord when the king called them to war. Those not called to fight had their work and produce requisitioned, particularly during last-minute preparations, such as the defence of a city.
