To combat this, a formal system of slavery was introduced to Minecraftia for the first time in history. Of the conquered peoples, 80% would be enslaved. These would then be put to work in farms, mines and other organisations owned by House Vinkhuys. Others could be sold off to the other provinces of the Empire, or to the Imperius Reich.

	Unlike the other Kythiran kingdoms, Alcanzar's High-Lords, members of the Ancient House Vinkhuys, began a policy of enslavement of much of the conquered peoples. This resulted in the eventual controversial Imperial Edict on Slavery by the White Gold Tower in the late Third Era, which legalised slavery across the Empire. Even so, Alcanzar remains by far the kingdom with the most slaves of the Empire, with an estimated 84% of Kythiran slaves being located in the kingdom.

			===Culture===
			The Alcanzari are a seafaring people, which originates from their days as a Helmsdeep naval base. Though the poorest of all Kythirans, they benefit from their tiny population, which allows them to more lavishly share their limited resources. This makes it so that the inhabitants of Solleria actually are relatively well-off, not in terms of wealth, but in standard of living. Most of her inhabitants either work in the Kythiran Navy or the Imperial Forestry Company. Others work as staff at the imperial summer palace Summerhal.

			Their relationship with the rest of the Empire isn't as strong as it originally was. After several incidents with the Imperius Reich, the majority of foreign trade has been moved to the imperial capital of Helmira, ending the last major alternative source of income for the province. The lack of a local ruler has also been the cause of local instability. The loss of the central island of the Dødehavet Sea, which has become an Ardoraghi naval base controlled by Yrticil has heightened tensions with the Golden Province of Ardoragh.
