In the game's words
How to use it
The Ras replaces the Explorer and is unique to the Ethiopians. The Ras can collect Treasures, construct Trading Posts, Town Centers, and Palaces, and is effective against Treasure Guardians. The Ras attacks from horseback with a musket and has two unique abilities. The first, Chaos, causes Treasure Guardians to attack each other. The second, Fealty Aura, causes the fighting abilities of Rases to increase when surrounded by larger numbers of allied units.
History
Ethiopian and Hausa kingdoms often tended to be united more through cultural commonalities than through political centralization. The Ras, an Ethiopian prince, could inherit his position through familial lineage, but also did so by gathering followers and attaining a large amount of influence among the local population, which was necessary to retain even an inherited position regardless. Political maneuvering was just as often linked to opportunism and manipulation of volatile situations as it was to building one’s power base.
