As active player you have to make a trading offer to the others.To build a city a player needs to collect five of the same nation cards and for a monument five of the same technology cards. Cities allow you to take more of the cards in your turn  and with monuments you gain the victory points at the end of the game. The players make points with the cities and monuments. The one who has the most at the end of the game wins. The monks allow you to get better trading results and the libraries allow you to build something with only 4 of the identical cards. You may only trade people and technology cards.
