Fortifications are military constructions or buildings designed for the defense of territories in warfare, and also used to solidify rule in a region during peace time. Humans have constructed defensive works for many thousands of years, in a variety of increasingly complex designs. The term is derived from the Latin fortis ("strong") and facere ("to make").
From very early history to modern times, walls have been a necessity for cities to survive in an ever changing world of invasion and conquest. Some settlements in the Indus Valley Civilization were the first small cities to be fortified. In ancient Greece, large stone walls had been built in Mycenaean Greece, such as the ancient site of Mycenae (famous for the huge stone blocks of its 'cyclopean' walls). A Greek Phrourion was a fortified collection of buildings used as a military garrison, and is the equivalent of the Roman castellum or English fortress. These construction mainly served the purpose of a watch tower, to guard certain roads, passes, and lands that might threaten the kingdom. Though smaller than a real fortress, they acted as a border guard rather than a real strongpoint to watch and maintain the border.

Genres: ,Here's only so much more
The day is full
To reach
Understanding
And all at once I knew
I fan the truth over to you
Excused
Your flame
Sold us
I look away (? )
There's only so much more
There's only so much more
Hey lonely
Still looking for perfection
Bleed and hold it
Miss the moment
When there's only so much more
Discover it all
All wonders be like you do
Simply comply
With the restlessness I hurt
Takes hold
A touch, a sigh with
Hey, lonely
Still looking for perfection
Bleed and hold it
Miss the moment
There's only so much more
There's only so much more
You'll find in me
Gave everything
Maybe you will
But maybe you won't
The impossible thrill
That lives only once
I rest my case
My weary face
