Lesson 18: Teacher Smith's Lecture 2 Hierarchy and Knights and Soldier Count and Currency in the Kingdom of Azpur.

"It is a hierarchy of the kingdom of Azpur, but ranks the kings as dukes, marquises, counts, villains and barons at their apex.

"By the way, does that ranking change the size of the territory?

"It's not determined by ranking. The territory is large but the baron, the territory is small but some become marquis, so the size of the territory is not proportional to the top and bottom of the title.

"Is it a hereditary system?

"It's basically a genetic assault. It will also be a male assault.

That said, my child will not be an Earl either because his father is an Earl.

Some people have different titles to be given at first than the Viscount or Baron.

"I see. Is this for nobility only?

"It's noble only.

And Smith assures me.

"Shall I add to that?

Never exclusively aristocrats. There are examples where the title of Baron or Viscount was given to those who contributed greatly to the Kingdom.

"I see."

"... so you go on.

Soldiers who are civilians may also be awarded one-generation titles. That is the knight's title.

Soldiers pass merit and exams.

The knight's recommendation is made by the lords of each territory, and examinations and appointments are made in the King's Capital.

Takeo nods.

"By the way, what is the breakdown of 1000 soldiers?

"We will be in the ranks of Knights, Knights, Soldiers, Platoons and Soldiers, headed by the Knights.

Knight titles are subject to review by more than the Knight Chief, so officially knights are candidates for Knight titles.

In my Earl of Elvis territory, I have 1 Knight Commander, 10 Knights Commander and 290 Knights.

One soldier leader, 42 platoon captains and 840 soldiers belong.

"... not more than 1000 people?

Takeo asked a simple question.

"Yeah. When I say 1000 soldiers, I say how many they can put on the battlefield.

So the number of soldiers stationed will be 1184.

Plus, there's a wastage squad or something if it's a war, so you get more.

"I see. We can't leave the city empty no matter how many wars. That's a difficult thing.

Takeo was impressed that war was also a lot to think about.

"The region and the military have been roughly understood.

Tell me about this city.

"This city is a peripheral city in the northeastern part of the kingdom.

But the Dwarves cross the streets to the north and the Demon Kingdom to the east, so tax revenues from the deal come in.

The city will be a smaller fortified city of 5 km square.

There are two main streets: the front street to the castle gate and the back street to the back castle gate.

"Okay.

"Is there anything else?

"What's going on with the currency?

"There will be three types of currency in the Kingdom of Azpur: gold, silver and copper.

"... you don't know what to ask about the value of each coin.

"Then why don't you ask what's common?

Alice comes up with suggestions.

"I see. So how much is one loaf of bread?

"Right. Is it one piece of copper for two?

"What about alcohol?

"Is one bottle of wine 10 sheets of copper?

... I don't know... Takeo was confused.

"How many gold, silver and copper coins are exchanged at a time?

"It's 1 piece of gold = 10 pieces of silver = 1000 pieces of copper.

... as 50 yen for bread, 100,000 yen for gold, 10,000 yen for silver and 100 yen for copper.

and Takeo convert easily.

"Is there anything else you'd like to ask me?

Smith will check.

"Right, not roughly.

And then there's the semblance of questions.

"Okay.

Smith finished his teacher role.

"I'm exhausted," he said.
