'''[[City|Cities]]''', or more properly '''city-states''', are large settlements with some degree of control over their surrounding land. There are six city-states you may join: [[Ashtan]], [[Shallam]], [[Hashan]], [[Cyrene]], [[Mhaldor]], and [[Eleusis]]. Every city has its own socio-political structure, including various ministers (which are the same across Cities) and aides. If you wish to join a City, there are a few things to know. First, each city-state has a unique culture. You should read up on each city and decide which is best for you. Second, some Houses require membership in their base City. If you are seeking to join a House as well, or are already a member of one, you should take that into consideration.
Adventurers choose their '''[[cities]]''' when creating a character for the first time. Cities, also called city-states, are large settlements with some degree of control over their surrounding lands. There are six city-states you may join: [[Ashtan]], [[Targossas]], [[Hashan]], [[Cyrene]], [[Mhaldor]], and [[Eleusis]]. Every city has its own socio-political structure, including various ministers (which are the same primary positions across Cities) and aides.


In order to become a citizen, simply look at the [http://www.achaea.com/irex/helpview/help.php?q=CITIES help scroll] of the city you wish to join, and look at the ''[CURRENTLY IN THE REALM]'' section. Any names listed next to "Able to induct new citizens" can induct you, though there may be different processes per city after that point. If you wish to leave your city, you can simply QUIT <city name> at any time.
;Changing Cities
Sometimes after escaping the pygmy dungeon an adventurer learns the city they chose when creating their character is not what they expected. Before joining a new city consider that cities are free to restrict their citizens in many ways.
 
Citizens may also be required to perform city services, serve other citizens in various manners, or join only certain Houses, listed in HOUSE LIST <city>. Be absolutely certain that you discuss these things with leaders of your intended city listed in that city's [http://www.achaea.com/game/helpview/achaea/city help scroll] before you make a commitment to citizenship.
 
Once you have QUIT <city> to leave your old city and are ready to join a new one, read HELP <city> to find the denizen that can make you a citizen or the adventurers currently in the realm who are able to induct new citizens.
