 ==== Defence and Unrest Caps ====
-The smallest unit of Population in this game is **10**. That corresponds with 1 point of **[[Unrest]]** (a "filthy brigand or troublemaker"), and with 1 level of **[[Province Defense]]**. You don't get these immediately upon acquiring the province; rather, both maximum Unrest //and// maximum Province Defense are equal to the local Population **divided by 10**. There are hard caps for each, however; 100 Province Defense at 1000 Population, and 500 Unrest at 5000.

 ===== Starting Population =====
@@ Line 46: / Line 46: @@
 A province's terrain has a less-consistent impact on its starting population than in previous games. However, provinces **other than capitals** have two-to-four thousand more people in the **Late Ages**, and one-to-two thousand fewer people in the **Early Ages**.
+As of version 6.23 (released on 12/3/2024), Caves without forests have 20%-smaller starting populations than plains. Cave capitals are unaffected by this change.
 ===== Population Modifiers =====
 Populations naturally **grow** or **shrink** over the course of a game, in most provinces. The base Population Growth of a province is **0.2% per month**, thus, a province with a Population of 10,000 will gain 20 after a turn. The base Population Growth of all provinces is new to Dominions 6, by the way.

-  * Since terrain effects on Population Growth stack, a Cave Forest province has +0.2% Population Growth from terrain, while a Drip Cave has no change from terrain.
+  * Since terrain effects on Population Growth stack, a Cave Forest province and a Kelp Forest province both have +0.2% Population Growth from terrain, while a Drip Cave has no change from terrain and a Crystal Cave has -0.4%. A Gorge is technically Highlands terrain in a Deep Sea, but does not provide any additional decrease in Population growth over what a Deep Sea provides.
