 ====== Dwarf mine-holds ======
+**<color #22b14c>Need to integrate this page, with the dwarf minehold list on the main Dwarf page.</color>**
 Most Dwarves live in independent mine-holds, underground mining towns populated almost entirely by dwarves.  You will find mine-holds scattered in and around The Empire, and other parts of the game world, where they interact and trade with the local community. Mine-holds tend to be family and guild based, and the leader is often selected from a ruling family - in a semi-hereditary way (although the actual process varies).  There are different types of mine-hold.
-  * **Base** - Main Production: Iron - mainly run by humans. Gems: Hematite Plus one or two low value quartz stones.
