Monument

The Monument building in your Town does not have any levels to upgrade. It acts as a record of important milestones in the history of your Empire. When you open it, you’ll find a list of 25 milestones, arranged in the order they become active as your Empire progresses. For a more in-depth list of key events and milestones in your Empire’s timeline, be sure to check out our Empire Timeline module.

Each milestone listed in the Monument represents a specific achievement or event, such as Governors reaching certain Town Center levels, alliances growing to a particular size, defeating Terrors, or capturing important locations like Sanctuaries, Fortresses, and the King’s Castle. Some milestones track the progress of the entire Empire, while others depend on your alliance or your individual account.

The Monument is primarily a reward system, rather than a building that actually controls your Empire’s progression. Each milestone has a target, a time window, and a reward. If the target is reached during that window, the appropriate players receive the reward. Rewards range from Gems, Gold Keys, and Skill Books early on to larger Gem rewards, Speedups, higher-rarity Skill Books, and eventually Truegold.

The Monument doesn’t actually unlock the features associated with its respective milestones. Your Empire continues to age according to its predetermined schedule regardless of whether or not a Monument milestone is completed.
