Demand Tribute

A Viceroyalty may Demand Tribute from the towns it owns.

Introduction
Starting with r27, Viceroyalties may demand tribute for all towns under their control whether operated by Peasant or Player mayors. A tribute may only be demanded once every 7 days by either the Monarch, Viceroy or Finance Minister.

Tribute Amounts
The Tribute may be between 0.1 to 9.9 Freznics per 1000 people counted in the census (rounded up). The information about how many people are in the census is available under the Outskirts > All Towns Info.

The minimum of any tribute demanded is the amount that you put in. However, for amounts over 1000, it would be a multiplier based upon the rounded up number to the nearest thousand. For example, if a town has 2500 people, then it would be the amount you selected on the demand tribute screen times 3 (as 2500 rounds up to 3000).

''NOTE: Peasant Mayors may or may not decide to pay Tributes demanded of them. They won't answer mails to explain why and can not be tried in court.''

Unpaid Tribute
When you demand a tribute, the mayors will get a notification in the Town Hall under the Financial Section listed in red which says the following:

Viceregal Tribute of x.xx Freznics demanded on Oct 31, ??? 5:55 pm

The Mayor has the choice of whether to pay your demanded tribute or to simply ignore it as it sits there lingering. After 90 days, you may choose to delete the unpaid tribute.

With this said, the Viceroyalty could find other ways to get the Tribute paid or even decide to take "action" against a town or mayor who refuses to pay it. Will they find themselves removed from office? Perhaps a revolt to put someone else in? Maybe even remove the town from the Viceroyalty? Options, options, options.
