The Slovak Castle System

slo_the_slovak_castle_system

Faced with threats from all sides, we will establish a formalized military border along the Danube and the Carpathian foothills. We will empower the Zeman (the lower, land-owning Slavic nobility) to act as a permanent, hereditary frontier guard. These warriors live in Curias (fortified manor houses) and are exempt from certain taxes in exchange for their constant readiness to mobilize. This will create a resilient social class of warrior farmers who are intimately familiar with the local terrain, providing the state with an inexpensive and eager defensive screen that will be able to absorb the shock of foreign invasions before they reach the heart of the realm.
