jan 1, 1266 - Castle Tax introduced

Description:

Castle Tax introduced by Ivid I.
Outside of "strategic" areas bordering on other states, a tax on stone castles and keeps was introduced. The tax was justified as a way of paying for new castles in North Province, where it could be claimed that they were needed to protect the electrum mines of Bellport from humanoid attacks. Of course, such castles were built in lands mostly owned by Naelax nobles.
