Settlers are economic units that collect resouces and build buildings. They are the base of your economy and should be protected due to their weak combat statistics. Not all civilizations have settlers, however. The French have coureurs, Germans have a bonus villager type called the settler wagon, and natives and asians have villagers, which have the same stats as regular settlers.
