Building a Modern Nation in a Fantasy World Novel

Recent university graduate Moe dies after a successful job interview and transmigrates into a fantasy world as Arthur Jr., an incompetent king of the small kingdom of Keldoria. Unlike others in this magical realm, Arthur cannot wield magic, leaving him at a severe disadvantage. However, he possesses something equally valuable: modern knowledge and royal authority. Determined to transform Keldoria into an advanced nation where technology and magic coexist, Arthur must first tackle the kingdom's finances. He plans to implement a new tax system that benefits citizens while maintaining noble support, despite requiring higher taxes from the aristocracy. Armed with his business and engineering degrees from Earth, Arthur will apply modern economic principles to build his kingdom. This slow-progression kingdom-building story focuses on macro-level economics and strategic governance rather than an overpowered protagonist with extraordinary abilities from the start.
