Dock
In the game's words
How to use it
Docks can only be built along the shoreline. They train Fishing Boats, Canoes (if you are allied with Native Americans), Caravels, Junks, and a number of tougher ships of the like as they become available. If your Fishing Boats come under attack and you can't fight your enemy off, you can hide your fishing fleet in the Dock. Fishing Boats garrisoned in a Dock cannot fish, but they give the Dock the ability to fire on enemy units - so not only are your boats safe, they can defend themselves as well.
History
The world’s first shipyard is believed to have been constructed around 2500 BCE, in the ancient coastal city of Lothal of the Harappan civilization, in what is now the Indian state of Gujarat. Craft built in these dockyards most likely traded with the ancient Middle Eastern kingdom of Mesopotamia. Docks provide places for ships to load and unload passengers and goods. A group of docks is referred to as a dockyard. Towns often grow up around docks because they provide a convenient means of trade. This trend is evident in the northeastern section of the United States.
