One city is barely enough to call yourself a Lord. There’s an entire map to explore and conquer, so here’s how to claim new regions in Manor Lords.

To claim a new region in Manor Lords, you'll need to collect 1,000 Influence (2,000 if the region is controlled by someone else). There's also an option to claim a region with King's Favor, but there doesn't seem to be a way to get that resource at the moment.

When you have enough Influence, open the map, select the region you want to conquer and press Claim with Influence. The claiming process will start and after about 20 seconds the region will be yours.

If you decide to claim a region that is currently under the control of another Lord, you may want to prepare for a fight, as they can disrupt the process. You can do the same if the other Lord tries to claim an empty region. Just make sure you have enough units and military equipment.
