 Each town is built like a fortress, and managed by a ++General|(The nearest translation from goblin)++.  Larger towns have Lord-Generals, while the city is reported to have a Grand-General, with Smaller towns paying tribute to the larger towns, who pay tribute to the city.  Tribute is generally made up of slaves, metals and food.  Fortunately for everyone else, they are too busy squabbling amongst themselves, to be a real threat.  The smaller towns raid each other, the larger towns use a lot of their troops to keep the smaller towns in check, and the city regularly sends tribute collecting armies to everyone they can reach.  They are also at war with everyone else on the island, hunting down and enslaving any Humans, Orcs or Lizards they find and killing Giants, who are often too powerful for the slave masters to control.   The Orcs and Giants are happy to oblige, raiding and attacking towns on a regular basis.
