Kingdoms by Reiner Kinizia

Designed by Reiner Knizia, Kingdoms is a fast-paced, strategic contest of wits in which two to four players attempt to out think and outmaneuver each other as they establish castles across the land. By building castles in the richest regions, players stand to reap the most rewards. But the most sought after regions may be infested with dragons, trolls, or other hazards that seek to rob your kingdom of its riches. First published by Fantasy Flight Games in 2002, Kingdoms has been updated in a comprehensive new version, which features detailed plastic castles, a streamlined ruleset, and other welcome game enhancements.
