 Of course, in the case of backwaters and small entities, this will not amount to much.  An ordinary [[Principality|principality]] or [[County|county]] occupying a few [[20-mile Hex Map|hexes]] will hardly have world-shaking plans.  Nevertheless, the character will know small details about ongoing grievances, which may grant the character knowledge of how to speak helpfully and honestly with the residents and local authorities.
 The DM must be ready to answer the character's questions, giving meaningful answers that would suggest a course of action for the players, if they wish to change the destiny of even one small [[Village|village]] for the better.  It is up to the players to know which questions to ask, to acquire the knowledge that's rightfully theirs by means of this knowledge, so that they may be more fully informed than those without the ability.
