Why You Should Be a King or Queen in Evony

Last updated on June 17th, 2025 at 11:54 pm

Leading a country brings great honor and immense power. At the same time, it demands significant responsibilities. Evony recreates this balance by allowing players to experience the role of a national leader through gameplay. In the game, you can contend for the throne once your city becomes strong enough.

Becoming a King or Queen grants many advantages. However, it also comes with the duty to ensure the harmonious development of your people. As a leader, you cannot afford to neglect these responsibilities.

This article explains how to become a King or Queen in Evony. It also highlights the benefits and responsibilities associated with this prestigious role.

Becoming Server King or Queen

In the City of Throne War, the R5 of the alliance that successfully occupied the City of Throne for 5 hours will become the King or Queen of the server.
Generally, the City of Throne War opens every weekend. However, the first City of Throne War with a server enabled can be launched at any time, and the player must first defeat the NPC troops stationed in the City of Throne to capture the City of Throne. After the birth of the first King or Queen, the City of Throne War will be postponed to the following weekend instead of taking place on the same week’s weekend.
Occupy Magic Tower, Throne Tower, and Hero Tower will provide different benefits to help you occupy the City of Throne.
  • Magic Tower: Occupy for a certain amount of time to reduce your Alliance’s City of Throne occupying time or increase the enemy’s City of Throne occupying time. And increases the whole Alliance’s Healing Speed by 25%
  • Throne Tower: Once it is occupied, it attacks the enemy troops in the City of Throne in 180 seconds and will continue to attack them once every 300 seconds.
  • Hero Tower: Increases the occupier’s Hospital Capacity by 80%; increases the occupier’s March Size to City of Throne, Magic Tower, and Throne Tower by 600,000; increases the Whole Alliance’s Healing Speed by 25%.

NOTES:

  1. Players can not use bubbles (Truce Agreement) when they enter the forest area around the City of Throne.
  2. Players can not use bubbles once they are occupying Magic Tower, Throne Tower, and Hero Tower.
  3. If your main city’s defense fails in the forest area, you will be driven out of the forest immediately and move to a random location. Troops you have previously sent abroad will also immediately return to the city.
  4. The reinforcement capacity of the City of Throne depends on the occupier’s Embassy, but there is no restriction when they rally to enter the City of Throne.
In addition to becoming the King or Queen of their server, players can also occupy the City of Throne of the enemy server during SvS and become the Conqueror of the opponent.
After the end of the City of Throne War, the City of Throne will enter a protected state until a new Wartime is invoked. During this time, the King or Queen can exercise their rights and perform their duties.

The Rights and Duties of a King or Queen

The King and Queen can manage their server in the City of Throne.

Manage:

  1. Award – Players who become the King or Queen will receive a King’s Package, and can send award packages to others. The award packages include: Senior Award Package ×15;Medium Award Package ×20;Junior Award Package ×30
  2. Mail from the King – The King or Queen can send mail to the top 100 Alliance R5 and R4. The King or Queen can announce new rules via in-game mail, offer development advice, and more.
  3. Transfer King – While occupying the City of Throne, players can transfer the title of King or Queen to other alliance members to avoid being attacked. This is because the player currently occupying the City cannot use a Bubble (Truce Agreement).

    Note:
    Regardless of who the title is transferred to, or how many times it is transferred, only an R5 member of the occupier’s alliance can ultimately become the King or Queen.
    Therefore, if you want to become the King or Queen, you must be promoted to R5 before the end of the City of Throne War.

  4. Empire name – The King or Queen can name the Empire as he or she wishes, and the Empire name will be displayed in the Server List on the World Map.
  5. Architecture – The King or Queen can change the flag and the outlook of the Empire, choosing from any of the 7 Civilizations. The Empire’s flag and outlook will also be displayed on the World Map – Server List page.

Title:

The King or Queen will receive the royal title and gain the ability to assign titles to other players.
You can assign a title in two ways: either by entering the player’s name on the Title page in the City of Throne, or by clicking on the player’s castle and selecting “Title” to choose the appropriate title.

There are two types of titles:

  • Official Titles, which provide beneficial buffs.
