    If you have somebody to make the translation in english, that's good. I will have more time for the french translation.

    If so, you will find below the other levels :

    {farms_three_f_kh} Mid-scale Farming
    {farms_three_f_kh_desc} Behold the Maiden, who in her hands bears the gleaming Ear of Corn. The daughter of Astraeus, who, men say, was of old the father of the stars, or child of other sire, untroubled be her course! The tale is current among men, how of old she dwelt on earth and met men face to face, and never disdained in ancient times the tribes of men and women, but mingled with them, immortal though she was. And men called her Dike; but she assembling the elders, it might be in the market-place or in the wide-wayed streets, uttered her voice, ever urging them to kinder judgements. Not yet in that age had men knowledge of hateful strife, or contention, or the din of battle, but a simple life they lived. Far from them was the cruel sea and not yet from afar did ships bring their livelihood, but the oxen and the plough and Dike herself, queen of peoples, giver of just verdicts, abundantly supplied their every need. Even so long as the earth still nurtured the Golden Race, she had her dwelling on earth. But with the Silver Race only a little and no longer with utter readiness did she mingle, for that she yearned for the ways of the men of old. Yet in that Silver Age was she still upon the earth; but from the echoing hills at eventide she came alone, nor did she speak to any man in gentle words. But when she had filled the great heights with gathering crowds, then would she with threats rebuke their evil ways, and declare that never more at their prayer would she reveal her face to man. "Behold what manner of race the fathers of the Golden Age left behind them! Far meaner than themselves! But ye will breed a viler progeny! Verily wars and cruel bloodshed shall be unto men and grievous woe shall be laid upon them." Even so she spoke and sought the hills and left the people all gazing towards her still. But when they, too, were dead, and when, more ruinous than they which went before, the Race of Bronze was born, who were the first to forge the sword of the thief, and the first to eat of the flesh of the plough-ox, then truly did Dike loathe that race of men and fly heavenward and took up that abode, where even now in the night time the Maiden is seen of men, established near to Arktos.


    \n\nHistoire\n\nConsidérée par Hésiode comme l@une des plus nobles des activités, l@agriculture pouvait, au Vème siècle av JC, représenter l@occupation d@une part importante de la population pouvant aller jusqu@à 80%, avec de fortes disparités selon les cités (il y en avait sans doute beaucoup moins à Athènes). À Sparte, le kléros ordinaire aurait une superficie d@environ 18ha. Les plus grandes propriétés athéniennes, souvent morcelées dépassent rarement la vingtaine d@hectares, mais il peut s@y ajouter des biens outre-mer, dans le cadre de l@empire colonial. La plupart se situent sans doute entre le lopin et une dizaine d@hectares, un domaines de 3 à 6 ha semble avoir été suffisant pour fournir le revenu nécessaire aux frais d@un hoplite. \n\nOn observe peu d@évolution dans les pratiques agricoles, sinon peut-être une extension de la surface cultivée aux dépends des vaines patures situées surtout dans les confins, appelés eschatiai et une tendance à la concentration foncière plus ou moins marquée selon les cités. Parmi les rares innovations, les spécialistes citent l@introduction de plantes fourragères telles que la luzerne, importée de Perse.


    \n\nStrategy\n\nThis building represents the production and trade of common, essential goods such as crops, common textiles and locally sourced building materials that are taxable by your faction. This level represents initial extension of central authority beyond the immediate hinterland of urban areas. For this reason it requires a higher level of political stability than earlier levels. This level provides a larger income, as the province become more economically efficient, resulting in comparatively greater agricultural production, which is sold in markets under the aegis of tax-collectors. Population growth will also become more stable in provinces with a larger urban population. The development of this building chain represents the management of these common goods through taxation and trade tariffs as a method of controlling the means of production, the land itself. The more land a faction controls in a given province, the greater the tax revenue available to it and the further this building chain is developed and the greater the income from agricultural production for the factional treasury.
    {farms_three_f_kh_desc_short} This land is given over to commercial farmers, who sell their wares for profit in the larger cities.

    {farms_four_f_kh} Large-scale Farming
    {farms_four_f_kh_desc} I sing of rich-haired Demeter, awful goddess: of her and her trim-ankled daughter whom Aidoneos rapt away, given to him by all-seeing Zeus, he who rejoices in the thunder. For, far away from golden-haired Demeter, she was at play with the daughters of fruitful Okeanos, gathering flowers within a soft meadow; hyacinths, irises, and the narcissus, a snare willed by Zeus, the arbiter of men's fates, for the green girl. It was a thing of awe whether for deathless gods or mortal men to see: from its root grew a hundred blooms and is smelled most sweetly, so that all wide heaven above and the whole earth and the sea's salt swell laughed for joy. And the girl was amazed and reached out with both hands to take the lovely toy; but the wide-pathed earth yawned there in the plain of Nysa, and the Son of Kronos, He who has many names, with his immortal horses sprang out upon her. \n\nThen bright-coiffed Rhea said to Demeter: "Come, my daughter; for far-seeing Zeus the loud-thunderer calls you to join the families of the gods, and has promised to give you what rights you please among the deathless gods, and has agreed that for a third part of the circling year your daughter shall go down to darkness and gloom, but for the two parts shall be with you and the other deathless gods: so has he declared it shall be and has bowed his head in token. But come, my child, obey, and be not too angry unrelentingly with the dark-clouded Son of Cronos; but rather increase forthwith for men the fruit that gives them life."

    \n\nHistoire\n\nLa Grèce connut au IVème siècle av JC d@importants boulversements socio-économiques et il semble que Sparte ait été particulièrement touchée. Aristote et Plutarques évoquent des déséquilibres profonds dans la répartition des terres à Sparte : fortune excessive des uns laissant les autres démunis. Une rhètra de l@éphore Épitadeus aurait autorisé le don ou le legs du kléros, cette vente déguisée ayant accéléré la rupture du bel équilibre dû à Lycurgue. Aristote affirme que deux cinquièmes des terres étaient détenus par des femmes.

    \n\nAthènes connait également une importante mobilité de la richesse foncière. Les bornes hypothécaires se multiplient, mais cela s@explique principalement par le fait que la terre reste une garantie prisée en cas d@emprunt. L@exploitation de l@Attique semblent avoir atteint son plus haut niveau à cette époque (il semblerait aussi que la Béotie et les Cyclades aient connu le même phénomène). Il se serait développé une sorte d@agriculture spéculative, tournée vers les marchés, l@ensemble donnant des campagnes une relative prospérité. Selon certaines estimations, moins de 10% des athéniens détenaient 50% des terres. Mais il est probable que beaucoup encore des propriétaires terriens répondent encore au modèle de l@autourgos, petit propriétaire exploitant son terrain. Diodore estime qu@en 322, 22.000 propriétaires (Plutarque parle lui de 12.000) possédaient l@équivalant de moins de 3 ha. Ce qui provoqua de nombreux départs vers la Thrace, quant Antipatros y proposera des terres à ceux que le nouveau régime censitaire athénien avait privés de leurs pleins droits de citoyens. Une bonne partie de l@approvisionnement en grain était dû aux importations. Bien que n@en étant pas la seule provenance, la Mer Noire semble avoir eut un rôle majeur dans cette approvisionnement. Les athéniens entretenaient dans ce cadre de très bonnes relation avec les spartokides.


    \n\nStrategy\n\nThis building represents the production and trade of common, essential goods such as crops, common textiles and locally sourced building materials that are taxable by your faction. This level represents the extension of factional authority over land throughout the province, necessitating a higher level of oversight from the central regions, represented by the government system. This level provides substantial income from the trade of the province's locally produced wealth. Furthermore, agricultural produce from this province is better able to support large urban populations without over-reliance on the import of grain from other regions. The development of this building chain represents the management of these common goods through taxation and trade tariffs as a method of controlling the means of production, the land itself. The more land a faction controls in a given province, the greater the tax revenue available to it the further this building chain is developed and the greater the income from agricultural production for the factional treasury.
    {farms_four_f_kh_desc_short} The majority of farms in this region are owned by the local aristocracy. The small-holders are less common than they were of yore.

    {farms_five_f_kh} Estates
    {farms_five_f_kh_desc} I will sing of well-founded Gaia, mother of all, eldest of all beings. She feeds all creatures that are in the world, all that go upon the goodly land, and all that are in the paths of the seas, and all that fly: all these are fed of her store. Through you, O queen, men are blessed in their children and blessed in their harvests, and to you it belongs to give means of life to mortal men and to take it away. Happy is the man whom you delight to honour! He has all things abundantly: his fruitful land is laden with corn, his pastures are covered with cattle, and his house is filled with good things. Such men rule orderly in their cities of fair women: great riches and wealth follow them: their sons exult with ever-fresh delight, and their daughters in flower-laden bands play and skip merrily over the soft flowers of the field. Thus is it with those whom you honour O holy goddess, bountiful spirit. Hail, Mother of the gods, wife of starry Okeanos; freely bestow upon me for this my song substance that cheers the heart! And now I will remember you and another song also.


    \n\nHistoire\n\nL@Enktésis, ou droit d@acquérir des propriétés, notamment des terres, est un droit attaché à la qualité de citoyen, mais il peut aussi être accordé à titre de privilège à des bienfaiteurs étrangers. Les propriétés foncières pouvaient aussi faire l@objet de spéculations. À titre d@exemple, dans l@Économique de Xénophon, Ischomaque précise que son père a pratiqué une certaine spéculation foncière, en achetant des parcelles en friche à bas prix, pour les revendre, après remise en état, à un prix élevé. \n\nToutefois, il faut garder à l@esprit que la majorité des transferts de propriété se faisaient par don ou héritage.


    \n\nStrategy\n\nThis building represents the production and trade of common, essential goods such as crops, common textiles and locally sourced building materials that are taxable by your faction. This level represents the extensive use and control of land throughout the province by urban elites, requiring well-developed bureaucratic systems within the factional governance structure. Land-ownership is increasingly concentrated in hands of wealthy urban elites, while small-scale agricultural producers become dispossessed. While productivity and economic efficiency, increases, this development forces the growth of social tension in the region. The development of this building chain represents the management of these common goods through taxation and trade tariffs as a method of controlling the means of production, the land itself. The more land a faction controls in a given province, the greater the tax revenue available to it the further this building chain is developed and the greater the income from agricultural production for the factional treasury.
    {farms_five_f_kh_desc_short} The aristocracy now owns most of the agricultural land in this province. Economic efficiency is improved, but the smaller land-owners are in decline.

    {farms_six_f_kh_desc} O Goddess, Gaia, for Gods and men the source, imbued with fertile, all destroying force; Mother of All things, bounding, whose prolific powers, produce a store of beauteous fruits and flowers, Ever-changing maiden, the eternal world immortal, blessed, crowned with every grace; From whose wide womb, as from an endless root, fruits, many-formed, mature and grateful shoot. \n\nDeep bosomed, blessed, pleased with grassy plains, sweet to the smell, and with prolific rains. All flowering spirit, centre of the world, around your orb, the beauteous stars are hurled with rapid whirl, eternal and divine, whose frames with matchless skill and wisdom shine. Come, blessed Goddess, listen to my prayer, and make increase of fruits thy constant care; with the fertile Horai in thy train, draw near, and with propitious mind hear your suppliant.


    \n\nHistoire\n\nÀ partir du IIIème siècle av JC, la tendance visant à la reconquête des terres par les grands propriétaires est de plus en plus marquée. En Attique, on constate une diminution du nombre de sites et une augmentation de la taille des bâtiments qui s@y trouvent. Le Péloponèse de la Ligue Achaienne est dominé par la ploutocratie dirigeant les cités membres. Néanmoins, les demandes populaires visant à une abrogation des dettes et à un partage des terres sont très importantes. Par ailleurs, c@est justement cette base populaire, qui livra de nombreuses cités achaiennes à Cléomène III de Sparte, dans l@espoir qu@il y appliquera les mêmes mesures révolutionnaires qui avaient tant revigoré la vieille cité dorienne. Espoir rapidement déçus par Cléomène et durablement brisés par l@intervention macédonienne. Au IIème siècle, la plupart des cités passent sous le contrôle de minorités dont la fortune était essentiellement foncière.


    \n\nStrategy\n\nThis building represents the production and trade of common, essential goods such as crops, common textiles and locally sourced building materials that are taxable by your faction. This level represents further concentration of land-ownership within a province into the control of highly wealthy urban elites. Erstwhile small-scale land-owners are, meanwhile, being dispossessed and relegated to tenants, or migrating to urban landscapes. This markedly increases productivity, but contributes to further social tension in the region. The development of this building chain represents the management of these common goods through taxation and trade tariffs as a method of controlling the means of production, the land itself. The more land a faction controls in a given province, the greater the tax revenue available to it and the further this building chain is developed and the greater the income from agricultural production for the factional treasury.
    {farms_six_f_kh_desc_short} The land flourishes, but all is not well: the huge farms are efficient, but social resentment is growing.

    The two land reform :

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    {land_reform1_f_kh} Seisachtheia kai Ges Anadasmos (Abrogation des dettes et de la servitude et partage des terres)
    {land_reform1_f_kh_desc} Depuis plus de longues années, s@est posé le problème de la concentration des terres et des dettes. Certains de nos aïeux risquait même l@esclavage à cause de ces dettes. Toutefois, aujour@hui l@espoir renaît. En effet, comme l@ont déjà fait, parfois partiellement, par le passé quelques Tyrannos ou Archontes, pour des motifs les plus divers, nos dirigeants actuels, bien qu@un peu hésitants au début, ont proclamé l@abrogation des dettes et le partage des terres. Cela est une bonne chose pour la masse des citoyens dépossédés, mais les anciens propriétaires de ces terres s@estiment lésés, et ils cherchent un moyen de récupérer leurs anciennes terres. Nous devons prendre garde s@ils au cas où ils décideraient de faire appel à nos ennemis.


    \n\nHistoire\n\nDès le début du VIème siècle av JC, Athènes semble avoir connu une crisé agraire. Celle-ci était due à une excessive concentration des terres et à l@endettement des paysans pouvant aller jusqu@à l@esclavage. L@archonte Solon, rédacteur mythique de la constitution athénienne aurait procédé au Seisachtheia, c@est à dire le "rejet du fardeau", ce qui signifit l@abrogation des dettes et de la servitude qui pouvait en résulter. Toutefois, étant lui-même issu de l@aristocratie, il n@alla pas jusqu@à ordonner la redistribution des terres. \n\nAu IVème siècle av JC, parmi les principes constitutifs de la Ligue de Corinthe, fondée par Philippe II de Macédoine, figuraient l@engagement de ne tolérer ni partage des terres, ni abolition des dettes. \n\nToutefois, le partage des terres et l@abrogation des dettes étaient des thèmes discutés en Grèce à cette époque. Énée le Tacticien écrivait dans son traité de Poliorcétique que le péril le plus grand pour une ville assiégée est le danger intérieur, constitué de tous les mécontents et laissés-pour-compte. L@auteur recommande donc, si besoin est, de soulager les débiteurs et d@assurer le nécessaire à tous ceux qui pourraient en manquer. \n\nEn Sicile, les tyrans Denys l@ancien à Syracuse ou Cléarchos et son fils Timothéos à Héraclée Pontique ont largement refaçonner le corps civique selon leurs intérêts en redistribuant les terres et annulant les dettes.


    \n\nStrategy\n\nThis building represents a deliberate and active policy aimed at averting further escalation of social conflict caused by the widespread concentration of land-ownership in the hands of wealthy urban elites. This is achieved through a combination of land re-distribution, debt cancellation and monetary bequests to small-holders. It calms social tensions, but that is offset by a reduction in economic efficiency and a subsequent reduction in income. Further action can be taken to more radically oppose the consolidation of elite control over agricultural production, but with a correspondingly more severe impact. It is important to note that these provisions can be, if circumstances demand, reversed.


    {land_reform1_f_kh_desc_short} Pour secourir le petit peuple, la redistribution des terres tant attendue a été décrétée, ainsi l@annulation des dettes. Le peuple afflue vers ses petites fermes familiales pour ensemencer les champs comme le faisaient leurs pères.

    {land_reform2_f_kh} Khreon Apokope kai Ges Anadasmos (Annulation des dettes et redistribution des terres)
    {land_reform2_f_kh_desc} Gloire, à notre Archonte, arrivé au pouvoir grâce au soutien du peuple, il a réussit rendre à notre cité sa vie d@autan. Cet Âge d@or où le père allait cultivé le morceau de la khora qui lui avait été attribué pour nourir sa famille. Cet Âge d@or où le père de famille n@était pas accablé par les dettes. Des souvenirs lointains ! Non ! car aujourd@hui cela est à nouveau une réalité. Toutefois, les anciens maîtres de ces terres sont forts mécontents et il est problable qu@ils intriguent dans les milieux politiques et avec des puissances étrangères pour retrouver leur domination. Nous devrons être vigilants et défendre nos terres.


    \n\nHistoire\n\nLa question de la distribution des terres agricoles s@est posée de manière de plus en plus aigue au cours du IIIème et du IIème siècle en Grèce. Les mouvements coloniaux des siècles précédents avaient permit au citoyens sans terre d@une obtenir dans des colonies sur tout le pourtour de la Méditherannée et sur les côtes de la Mer Noire. Mais, hormis pour se mettre au service d@un souverain hellénistique par le biais du système de la clérouquie, l@âge colonial des cités de la vieille Grèce est fini. \n\nBien que la Grèce connaisse une phase de dénatalitée, les terres y sont majoritairement concentrées entre les mains d@une minorité de possédants. Cela provoqua de nombreux troubles et affrontements au sein des poleis. Certains hommes d@états se sont même servis de cette situation pour accroître leur pouvoir et atteindre certains objectifs. Les exemples les plus célèbres en sont Agis IV et Cléomène III de Sparte. \n\nÀ travers son histoire récente Sparte fit face à un problème interne majeur : la pénurie de troupes militaires citoyennes. En 244 av JC, les Homoioi, autrement dit les égaux détenant la pleine citoyenneté, n@étaient plus que 700. Il en résultat que la Lakonike était marquée par une très inégale distribution de la propriété des terres civiques. \n\nÀ terme, les objectifs principaux des réformes nécessaires à la résolution de ce problème étaient la Khreon Apokope et la Ges Anadasmos, ce qui signifit l@annulation des dettes et la redistribution des terres. Quelque chose de très commun pour tout autre cité de l@époque, mais parfaitement inouï à Sparte. \n\nLe résultat en fut l@intégration dans le corps civique d@Hypomeiones, de Perioikoi, des laconiens libres non-citoyens, de Xenoi, mais aussi des Heilotes qui étaient capables de remplir les conditions de richesse. Ainsi le corps de militaires citoyens de plein droit, détenant des lots de terre de taille égale et étant assujétis à la réinstitution de l@Agogé, atteignait l@effectif de 4.000 à 4.500 individus. Ce qui permit à l@état spartiate de disposer d@un certain nombre de Morai, la plus grande unité militaire de l@armée spartiate, qu@on n@avait pas vu depuis l@époque des guerres helleno-perses.


    \n\nStrategy\n\nThis building represents a deliberate and active policy aimed at averting further escalation of social crisis caused by the concentration of land-ownership in the hands of wealthy urban elites. This is generally achieved through a combination of political reforms attempting to re-distribute large tracts of agricultural land, cancellation of ruinous debt and economic support for small-holders. As the highest level of reform available, this can have a major socio-political impact. By eradicating the concentration of elite ownership of land in this region, profits available to the governing body are limited. Similarly, while popular with small-holders, these measures will increase the angst of political elites within this province.
    {land_reform2_f_kh_desc_short} To the great relief of the common people, a further stage of land reform has been enacted and debts cancelled. People flock in growing numbers to old and new small family farms, and sow the fields as their fathers did.

    You need to find his name in the descr_strat, assuming you're within the first 100 turns or so. Otherwise, there's probably no way to guess his surname. Have you tried MelagrosA, MeleagrosB, etc?

    How does faction re emergence work with existing troops in that city? I saw an Epirus full stack near the city Pella in one turn. Next turn, Macedonia re emerges in Pella, and spawns a full stack. But I can no longer see the previous Epirus full stack, and there is no chance that full stack was defeated in battle. Does the re emergence script kill off existing units in the city?

    Look at their weapons. The earlier ones have spears, the late one swords. A spear is a better weapon for charging.

    Maybe because they are completely different cavalry types? Early and middle are Equites Romani, noble melee cavalry meant to guard your flanks while late cavalry are Equites Auxiliary, medium skirmisher cavalry meant to have a more versatile role like harassing and supporting.
