Infrastucture is essential to the survival of Nova Roma. From outposts and roads that support gathering resources to temples that court and sway the wrath of the Gods, a Roman settlement without infrastructure is no settlement at all.
The outpost is the beginning of your new city. Where you set it up can majorly influence your future decisions.
The Tax office produces gold for the city by taxing your citizens which can decrease happiness. The tax office has it's own page.

Citizens to move 50% faster than on unpaved ground. Roads also create a 3x3 area around it where buildings can be constucted. Aqueducts can be built across or on top of Roads.

Stone roads can be built directly on top of existing normal Roads to upgrade them, and Aqueducts can be built across or on top of Stone Roads.
