Clans, territory and taxes

Kefir's money article states that settlement owners and clans controlling territories collect taxes. That single sentence is the strongest first-party link between organised groups and in-game income. A separate help centre article covers becoming a settlement owner and earning income, and the base section covers protecting a base from raids and raiding other players' bases.

The 28 October announcement described a power pyramid. An independent pre-launch reference site recorded it as five steps from Hobo to Shadow Governor; this desk treats the list as a secondary citation, not a Kefir quote. Reports on the launch weekend describe a difficult time for players without a group, but those are community reports, not rules.

The reset is the limiting factor. Every plot and base is wiped every seven days and converted into jail time and authority, so a territory position is held inside one cycle. The help centre articles checked here do not publish clan creation steps, member limits or tax rates, and this site will not supply them. A separate article covers inviting a friend when the game says they are on another server.
