Courthouse (Civ4)

The Courthouse is replaced by the following unique buildings:
* Sacrificial Altar (Aztec)
* Rathaus (Holy Roman Empire)
* Ziggurat (Sumeria)
== Strategy ==
Courthouses reduce your expenses and grant you Espionage points.
Each Courthouse halves maintenance for its home city. Maintenance increases with each further city you found, so building Courthouses helps to offset the spiralling costs. Once you have built enough Courthouses, you can build the Forbidden Palace, which further reduces maintenance.
Courthouses also give a bonus to espionage and enable you to have one Spy specialist, which produces more espionage.
