1. Chaos Construction: The grid has to be devided into nine regions of orthogonally connected cells. Each row, column and region has to contain the digits 1-9 once each.

2. Roles: Cells take on roles If certain conditions are met. These roles increase the value of those cells. Only if none of these conditions, which are described below, is met, the value of a cell is its digit. If more than one condition is met, a cell always takes the role with the highest value.

2.1 Role Mechanics and Values (X = Digit in a cell):
- Farmer (Value = 2X): To become a Farmer a cell needs at least X cells including itself of its own region in the 3x3 area centered on the cell.
- Merchant (Value = 3X): To become a Merchant there has to be at least one foreign region that occupies at least X orthogonally and/or diagonally touching cells of the considered cell.
- Diplomat (Value = 4X): To become a Diplomat a cell has to be orthogonally and or diagonally touched by at least X different other regions.

3. Clues:
- A black number in the top-right corner of a cell gives the value of that cell.
- Any set of three sequential cells along a peach line has to contain a Farmer, a Merchant and a Diplomat.
- Region borders split up blue lines into segments of the same sum. Each blue line visits at least two different regions.

Have fun solving!
