Travian
Travian is a long standing, popular city-building MMORTS that enables players to build a city in the classical era of Europe. Players begin with an untapped, resource-laden area in a persistent map, tasked with taking advantage of those resources to allow players to expand their city center, eventually growing into a fully-fledged city that is capable of founding new villages, conquering other players, and working together in Alliances to each other in the game’s brutal PvP world.
