# The Tribes ¶

[TOC] ¶


There are three different tribes in Widelands: Barbarians, Empire (Imperials), and Atlanteans. They have different wares, workers and buildings. This gives rise to different strong points and shortcomings. Find out which is your favorite tribe! ¶
Currently, each tribe has a campaign which introduces it briefly, telling about the history and explaining its economy. ¶

## Barbarians ¶

The Barbarians are a strong, rough, but friendly tribe, as long as you don't harm them. Then, they turn into a hearty a vicious tribe, quick to laughter and violence. They make fierce allies and fiercer foes. ¶
Their home is up in the north, between old forests, mountains and grasslands, where they live since the beginning of time. Their soldiers are masters of axes, so it is no wonder that the barbarian lumberjack is the fastest one to be found amongst all the tribes. ¶
