The first kingdom is ruled by a sick king with a son of only 17. The second is a large city of buisness, slave business specifically. Once the boy's father died he became king, and his first move? Expand in the name of justice, and so he waged a courageous war against his neighbor kingdom and shockingly won with few losses. And this fair king did not conquer them like any other king, in fact his only demand was that they end the slave trade or be destroyed, he was a beacon of hope and justice, but he was not wise. The freed slaves starved on the streets, they had no skills or education, and there weren't enough jobs to accommodate an eighth of them. Not only were the slaves affected, but the others as well, the economy was demolished, without trade and labor people fought and killed for mere bread. They pleaded with their new king, but he did nothing, because in his mind famine was more acceptable than slavery... Be wary Eureka, some evils are necessary" "I do believe you made that up."
