                          Concept : Sector ownership

NAME
   Sector-ownership - Sector ownership

Level: Basic

In  order to own a sector, you must have at least one of the following present
in the sector:

   1) mil
   2) a land unit
   3) non-captured civilians

If at any time you do not have at least one of those 3 things in a sector, you
will  lose  control  of it.  If you are not the old owner at the time you lose
the sector, it will revert to the old owner.  Otherwise it will revert to  the
deity,  country  #0,  even  if another country's land units are present in the
sector.  If there are no people at all in the sector, it will  revert  to  the
deity.

Note  that this means that if you attack a sector and do not move in, you will
not gain possession of it. If there are civilians in the  sector,  the  sector
will  revert back to the original owner. If there are no civilians in the sec-
tor (and no mil or units, because you  just  killed  them),  the  sector  will
revert back to the deity.

Similarly, if you abandon a sector, it'll revert immediately.
