Economic production

Heilbroner states that "a socirty must organize a system to assure the production of enough goods and services for its own servival and arrange the distribution of the fuits of its production so that more production can take place." (p.4) In my mangolian society in the Civilization game I am having trouble making trades with other emperors and groups. My own mangolian empire is flourishing because of the agricultural base that i have been establishing along the way. My mentality was that the stronger societies have produce and materials to export therefore more tribes and other socities will want to trade for goods they lack on the production line. Although my society is very young it looks very promising. The economic history that it is continuiously building nad the strong foundation will help with the production and distribution of the society. As a society begins to establish itself in one particular trade other societies begin to depend on their production to keep their own tribe alive. They feel that they do not need to produce that material or agricultural produce becasue they can just trade or barder for it. When one state or tribe or society owns the complete production of a certain good then they get to control the fluctuation of the price and the supply and demand numbers. I believe that it is necessary for a community to establish many different markets while also excelling in one particuliar field.
