But why do I have to build each and every structure/area involved in my realm?
It feels like Castle World is turning into a contest, and I thought this was
supposed to be a collection of castle-related objects. I also don't have the
time and pieces to "fill up" a realm. It would also mean I'd have to
completely re-write my History, and I am loath to do that, considering the time
I put into it.

What happens if people have realms completely surrounding me, and I need to
expand?

Um... I *already* have a country. In fact, this country was once *three*
different countries. See the History of Dragonia for more information.
I thought creating countries was the idea? Otherwise, what is the point of
having a King if he has no kingdom?
