-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.I fairland
-is a program which creates land and ore for Empire. It
-should be run after
-.I files
-has been run and before
-.I emp_server
-has been started. This is a land generator for empire that creates a
-specified number of continents, and spaces them evenly accross the
-map. It tries to make all of them the same size, and makes sure that
-they don't meet. It gives each start island exactly the same
-distribution of resources and the same number of mountains. You can
-get nearly any kind of map you want by choosing the right arguments.
