What are Tavern Boosts and their benefits?

Tavern Shop
With the Silver you collect you can activate powerful boosts that offer a wide variety of effects, like coin & supply boosts, fair merchants that trade goods with you in the market, a city shield that protects you from aggressive neighbors, and more!
These boosts are all temporary, each having a specific duration. At any given time you can have just one boost active. You can open another slot that allows you to have two boosts active at a time at the cost of 50 Diamonds. You would need to open this slot whenever you're running a new boost and you want to start a second boost.
Some of these boosts will be only available after you have bought a specific number of chairs in your Tavern.

Resource Boosts
As the name might tell you, this first group of boosts are ones that affect your resources in the game. These boosts will work as an addition to any existing boosts you may already have (for example if you have a 100% coin boost from St. Mark's, and a 20% coin boost from the Tavern, you will get a total of 120% coin boost until the Tavern one expires).
