Public order - influence on faction's functioning

In the commandery list, you can check the level of public order within each of them.

Public order - has a quite specific mechanics. Regardless of the value taken, it does not affect the functioning of the commandery in any way - whether this value maintains the level of +100, +20 or -50, it does not matter. However, the problem begins when the value drops to -100. In such a situation, an uprising will break out inside commandery - near the settlement, which "fell" there is an army of rebels, who want to conquer the village. To stop the conflict from escalating, you need to destroy the army before it can grow further in power. For this reason, it is important to maintain public order at the highest possible level - to have more time to react when something happens that will significantly reduce this parameter. The key is to keep the value above -100 at all cost.

How to increase the value of public order?

Public order can be increased through reforms.

The level of public order is influenced by several factors such as:

1. Army, located on the territory commandery. And army, which is stationed inside the settlements belonging to this commandery. In the first case, you can count on a small bonus, in the second - a powerful strengthening of the public order.
2. Level of taxes. When the level of taxes is set to "normal", it will have no impact on public order. Raising the level of taxes will impose a penalty on the commandery. Reducing them will provide a fairly significant bonus. Thus, it is a great way to control public order in case of a sudden event.
3. Buildings in the commandery. Some buildings allow you to increase the level of public order. It is necessary to build at least 1 such building inside each commandery.
4. Reforms. Some reforms can increase the level of public order in the entire faction - 2 or 3 points may seem like a small amount, but remember that the bonus includes all the settlements belonging to the player.
5. Special abilities of the characters and their positions. Some abilities allow the generals to get additional points to public order, as well as positions in the Court - in particular, functions of administrators.

As you can see, the game has a lot of ways to improve the level of public order. It is worth remembering that sometimes it is more profitable to build a building that offers the growth of this attribute than the construction of another structure that provides additional income.
