Haithabu

Haithabu

At the end of the early Middle Ages Haithabu was the most important trading center in the North and Baltic Seas area thanks to its central location. Goods of the whole known world were traded at Haithabu: commodities, resources from Scandinavia and luxury goods from the Baltics, Constantinople, Baghdad and Frankish Empire.

In addition, potteries, ceramics and tools were manufactured at Haithabu.

Haithabu is a clever and mechanically simple economic game. Two to four players trade with the known world, trying to fulfill trade orders and to make profits.
