INTRODUCTION See Also: Defensive wall Before the establishment of Centralized Governments capable of supporting strong, National Armies , individual cities were left to fend for themselves when it came to defense. As a result, many cities constructed City Walls to protect against Raiders and bandits. City walls represented a major investment in both time and materials, requiring years to complete and constant repairs to maintain their strength and integrity. However, these walls turned the city into a Fortress capable of withstanding all but the most determined attack. SEE ALSO |
