The families are pulled from all across the Sim Starhoods. The Royals are Lazlo and Crystal Vu, pulled from Strangetown. We'll get to specifics later.

The Nobility are the Ramaswami's from the family bin; and the Wan's from Riverblossom Hills.

The Merchants are the Cho's from Belladonna Cove; and the Patels... also from Belladonna Cove. Huh. That was unintentional.

The Peasants are Edward Contrary from Desiderata; Cristopher- I didn't misspell it- Tsang, the Bohemian; and Cleo Shikibu and her lover, Rodney Jung, from Riverblosson Hills.

And these are the Community lots: Seamstresses, Bath House and Tea House. Yeah I need better names. I don't have a college sub-neighborhood yet, but I do have the standard Takemizu Village- not to steal the buildings or anything... >_>

But because Takemizu will play a large part in the lives of all the households on the Silk Road. So that's the Introduction. You can find the Royal Kingdom Challenge rules at http://modthesims.info/t/334996. Enjoy the ride, ladies.
