Surakarta

Surakarta is a civilization added in Age of Empires III: Struggle of Indonesia, a part of the Javanese culture.

Overview
The Slow Civilization, the Surakartans are not in any hurry to get things done: their units move slow, they can get more rewards for taking longer to Age up, and most of their military buildings can only be built by one unit, the architect hero. While they may be slow at most things, their Age up options can speed up certain things, and they are quick to generate XP as all of their special barracks trickle it.

Royal Edicts
Surakartans can choose between these two Royal Edicts:
 * Baroque Art: All units' helmets are changed to the peci. Buildings gain 500 hitpoints, and your Villagers and Heroes build 30% faster. All your units gain 0.4 speed. Enables the training of Dragonder, European Instructor, Wurttemberg Regiment, and Regiment de Meuron. Unlocks the Javanese Illumination tech in the Kepatihan which gives you an XP trickle.
 * Traditional Value: Units gain 1.2x build bounty, and your Pendapa trickle 2 more XP. Your Vorstenlanded cards cost -200 Coin. Langsir receive 1.25 more bonus damage against Heavy Cavalry. Unlocks two special techs in their respective Pandapa: Matraman Tactics (Gives your Doropati +2 range and they give bonus hitpoints to nearby Trunakembang. Disables Jemparingan Mataran) and Jemparingan Mataran (Nyutro rate of fire is decreased by 50% but they gain +4 range. Disables Matraman Tactics). Unlocks River Poisoning tech in the Docks (but does not appear to be active in 1.2).
