Non Reincarnator FMC with good story

Non Fighter FMC with good story

This list includes web novels focused on making money (or bartering in the case of more primitive settings) using modern knowledge. Some of them are small-scale business owners, whereas others create kingdoms and focus on macro-economics. 
Some are gxb, others are BL, but barely any harems!! The harems included are basically inoffensive. I usually stay away from game elements like systems or cheats, but they're kind of inevitable in the genre. ... more>>

All of them are completed on mtl! 

On other websites: 

-Lady of the Lord From the East 

- The Landlord and His Wife 

- Mountain People  <<less

No Romance. Some has a little but are more focused on the plot or other things. 

The cream of the crop. No BL. Ranking after the first page is largely the order I remembered and added them. I think they’re all... more>> worth reading anyway so I didn’t put a huge amount of thought into rankings past the first page. I added small reviews/blurbs with my thoughts on each. <<less

Essentially, either a weak or strong protagonist has subordinates or people who are all very loyal and protective/possessive of him. Most of them are stronger than the MC. There are mainly male protagonists, but female protagonists are included.... more>>

NO HAREM OR ROMANCE-FOCUSED NOVELS! Contains mainly friendship or comradeship-focused Novels.

Other Novels/Mangas that can't be found on novelupdates: Eleceed (Manhwa), How to Survive as a Terminally-Ill Dragon (Manhwa) <<less

Novels that are in this list mainly have to do with some sort of territory management or kingdom building. The BL romance in these novels might be a subplot or play a bigger role in the story. If I find some novels that have these things outside of NU I will include them here.... more>>

Rankings ;

Active ; Novels that are featured in this list, are still being updated regularly 

Hiatus ; The group that's translating a novel puts it on hold for awhile

Inactive ; If a novel hasn't been updated for more than two months, It'll be labeled as Inactive but I'll still keep it within the list. <<less

I love to read the genre of Kingdom/Army building novels. I like to see loyal subordinates, plot development, army formation, character development, kingdom building elements... more>> and use of strategies in wars. <<less

With numbers, mc killed his own way.

Ps: Plz drop down in the comments and tell me your favourite novels that aren't in the list. (List and reviews will be updated cause quite a few are ongoing) and the pursuit of good stories are endless

Ps: I added a list of dropped novels in comments so U can avoid them.  <<less

I too favour Kingdom building novels.

Novels Ive read (or am reading) pertaining to stretegies, leadership, kingdoms, wars, etc... more>>

NO PARTICULAR ORDER <<less

All Male Protagonists...Kingdom/Country Building...Shop/Store Management

This is a list of things I have read which I think are great from the perspective of 'quality of craft' & 'quality of story'. In general those will be great reads for everyone as well, but will less include 'because I like this' focused listings of other 'great so long as you like this' stories.... more>>

That said, there are only so many 'objectively great' stories, so farther down the list I will put caveats (etc.) with less 'full measure' stories- either 'just good', or 'great if you like this', etc. I moved all the anri-social protags to another list.

If you know of something I should add to this list, feel free to comment a suggestion or PM.

I have written quite a few reviews for most of these and other works- feel free to check them out, and vote them up if you find them helpful. Thanks! <<less

A list of stories with: male lead, kingdom setting, transmigration/reincarnation/regression 

No description.

Well first off these are my masterpiece novels and you can be rest assured each of novel here are quality novels that has something for everyone on each of them. But it will heavily depend on your taste whether you will like them or not. I will leave out description for what to expect so even though they are my masterpiece you might not enjoy. Pick carefully.... more>>

And Please ignore the ranking i love each and every novel here equally they cannot be ranked as  each one of them excels in their own genre. And another advise dont trust NU ratings blindly. Who knows you might enjoy the novel very much even though ratings are low. Low-ratings doesnt mean bad novel. I have found myself there and sometimes even though NU ratings were low i really enjoyed the story.

Another thing is there are very less JP/Kr novels here cause good CN novels are wholesome while KR novels are short and sweet but not wholesome. About jap novels though,i have lot of grievance with them, None of Jap novel MC feel humane except the 1% jp novel Mc. Yes i feel sociopathic, Hypocritical, Genocidal, Arrogant, Racist, hotblooded CN mc more humane then jap beta c*ck pu*sy Gary stu mc.  <<less

Here's the list of few reverse harem story I really like and it has a great story.... more>>

ABO世界的「性」福Beta (Heavy smut, strictly not for kids to read)

PS: I will add some more if ever I find a reverse harem with great plot of story! :D <<less

It’s basically just a group of protagonists who make kingdoms or domains, with a focus on society/agriculture  and the smaller man instead of only building... more>> up their fighters. Mostly fantasy/Sci-fi and purely made to boost a few stories I love <<less
