All New Civilization: the Jin Dynasty

The Jin Dynasty is a civilization available as part of Age of Empires IV: Yue Fei’s Legacy. The Jin Dynasty emerged in 1115 after rebelling against the Liao Dynasty. At their peak, the Jin controlled large swathes of Northern China, waging wars against the Song Dynasty before eventually being conquered by the Mongols in 1234.

In Age of Empires IV, the Jin Dynasty leverage their dynamic economy to gain an advantage. Their unique Mounted Villager gathers exposed resources quickly, and their Emissaries travel far afield to set up Tributary States that give them a steady supply of food. Their military is no slouch either, fielding a powerful cavalry roster capable of dismantling opposing forces and laying waste to enemy lands.
