A Curia is the commercial hub of many provinces, a place where the great and the good meet. Anything imaginable is available to a man with gold in his purse. Trade flourishes when the merchant and ruling classes mingle. The merchants control all trade within a region, bringing in riches and exotic goods in the process. They supply luxuries to guarantee the goodwill of the political class; that trade is taxed (to the hilt, if need be) as well is just another part of the cost of doing business.
