Recommendations Similar kingdom-building western novels?

First post on this forum so please be merciful T.T
Sorry, I know novel updates isn't really the place to ask for original English novels but its the only place that can understand my references.
I'm looking for western novels focused on kingdom-building and management similar to A Realist's Kingdom Reform, Hail the King and Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken. Mostly A Realists kingdom reform though. I would REALLY PREFER it if it were physically published novels as in something you can pick up at a legit library over stuff you'd read at royalroad (Though if its just that good go ahead). I'd prefer a fantasy series please coz most of the ones recommended online for these types of western novels are space opera and I really prefer fantasy. Domestic affairs oriented please, I don't really like those that are more focussed on fighting/coups/revolutions since I prefer the politics and economics. Thanks in advanced!

 

Sevens
the world building is some what similar to western stories

 

I think he wants to know western novel that has similar concept of world building

 

The Safehold Series by David Weber. Although, it's technically sci-fi.

Hmmm, let me think.

 

aks @Arcturus the cat that know western novel and @Westeller

 

Not an original but have you read Release that Witch yet?

 

Coiling Dragon....completed country building novel

 

It's very hard to find a Western fantay solely focused on kingdom building since very few published western authors are bad enough authors to pigeonhole themselves into such a narrow topic. Furthermore, good western authors also understand that kingdoms can't just be magically built and reformed like they are in light novels and web novels.

 

I also want to look for new reads, mainly about Kingdom building or something with Domestic Affairs. I've read Legendary Moonlight Sculptor, Release the Witch, Realist Reforms, The Tales of Reincarnated Lord, The Amber Sword and I am the Monarch. Unfortunately, the last three mentioned are still not on the kingdom building arc but it's obvious the plots are going there. The main reason I want to look for more Kingdom Building novels is The Tales of the Reincarnated Lord.

 

you better make a new thread so it not confusing~

 

Not me. I like stories with more diverse plot lines than just straight kingdom building which I find to be boring due to its strict unrealistic focus on just political and economic issues which is just entirely unrealistic.

The Long Price Quartet is kinda close to fitting your desires though. Definitely plays around with themes of power and politics with the dynamic of a country having access to WMDs.

 

No need. I'm also looking for the same thing the original poster is seeking. By the way, I wish to know if there are any historical books about Henry VIII of England. I'm also quite interested with western historical novels.

 

I see

 

You can check Great Tang Idyl. Is not straight kingdom building but close enough.
Also on RRL although they are abandoned you have several.
Clockwork, Overseer, Once a Hero, Dungeon Games and there are a few other more but forgot the name.

 

Thanks for all the recommendations! Though its not all exactly what I'm looking for I'm glad they all seem fairly interesting. And lol yeah I agree with Arcturus with how unrealistic wns and lns are with this concept to the point that it seems stupid. That's why I was looking for western published novels in hopes of seeing better writing but I guess this concept is too unrealistic to be written that well. And lol

Glad to see someone with similar tastes especially since I haven't read some of these. Once again thanks to everyone's suggestions

 

The Long Price Quartet really seems like it would be up your alley though as the series generally eschews actual combat.

 

Closest thing I can think of atm is something like Daughter of the Empire by Janny Wurts/Raymon E. Feist, mainly since it has a focus on the rebuilding of a clan/noble house.
Not exactly devoid of conflict though...

 

The ones that come to mind are mostly non-western. That being said, you might want to look at "business building", or "historical fiction" (set near the renaissance). There's for example a very good trilogy about a girl who somehow becomes a pirate to avenge her adoptive father from a family of corrupt merchants, which could fit the "revenge trope". A similar novel might exist in the "kingdom building" type.

That being said, if you'd be ok with more oriented to politics... Game of Thrones. To be fair though, there's much more mismanagement than building...

 

Could try the empire trilogy by Raymond E. Feist and Janny Wurst. First book is called daughter of the empire.
It's very political oriented.
