The Empress Demands your support

Empires are systems of power, and Her Imperial Majesty has entrusted you to with building one. Do not disappoint her.

Incremental Grand Strategy

In How Empires Work you manage the development of a state, from local lordships to enormous networks of trade and conquest. Discover systems of taxation, trade, colonization, labour and more.

As your state grows, unlock automation features that turn repeated actions into complex interlocking institutions. Build the economic and political machinery of empire, then employ your aristocracy to manage the bureaucracy that keeps it running.

A beautiful world, yearning for your enlightened rule

Explore and expand across a hand-painted world that comes alive with flows of capital, commodities, and armies.

Employ both diplomatic influence and conquest to bring new lands into your imperial system.

Discover systems and master history

As your empire develops the game changes around you, and new approaches are required to stand the test of history. You will have to deal with internal troubles, rival powers, and - regrettably - the French.

Grow your economy, expand your influence, and watch your decisions compound into a grand imperial structure.

If you master the game you might even learn How Empires Work!
