Tile improvements are structures that you can build around cities to enhance the value of non-city tiles. These improvements range from farms (which increase food) mines which increase production and roads (which reduce unit movement costs) to military installations. Tile improvements can only be built by generating public works.

Through time, all civilizations have relied on their ability to control nature, primarily through farms, roads, and mines. With these improvements to the land, civilizations eat better, travel more quickly, and gather more materials. Advances in these staples often define the turning points of society as with the agricultural revolution of the Middle Ages or the development of the Railroad during the industrial revolution.
