Livestock Cattle
Levels:
2-Merchant(money lending)
3-Roman govcenter for pop Assimilation)
4-Curiales class: Land Owners
5-Treasury Treasury (needed provincial civil gov)
Cattle was worth about 1/2 a solidus. A cattle type trade bonus is less then a money based trade bonus. Having a large Roman curial class of land owners will bring noticeably higher trade base bonus return in comparison to the Germanic/Gaelic/Pict/land cattle trade gains.
The game for all the cultures is based on a numerical values but at least the two different income types can be somewhat reflected.

-Both systems have the same points...corn exchange(grain)and livestock but quickly diverge with provinces population upgraded settlements

-The different types economy reflects the trade bonuses effects on ports, markets and the various other economically type driven buildings. The Money system is the most sophisticated and generates the higher bonuses but is the most expensive and more technologically challenging to construct. The Romans and more so the Romano British can digress and begin building the barter type economic systems, but thus forfieting the ability to build the higher level economic and technicalogical buildings that generate incolme in terms of money. This reflects the so called dark ages in ways of loss of certain technologies.

-Eventual Goal: Roman(limited) and Romano factions will have a choice between the two economic systems. The money system being the more difficult.

The landowning class were called possesores. Curiales were government officials in charge of a City or town. Hence the town's "Curia".
