Historically, how important is fish in feeding a population?

Fish, clams and crabs on coastal tiles are good, so I think seafood is very important for feeding a successful empire. Also, Sid's Sushi.

Dachist for awesome.

Dachs has his own language now? Ossim.

 

[ParkCungHee]

Important enough for the O'Donnel's to claim to be the "King of Fish".
