The Kingdom cards are the cards that may be in the supply in any game of Dominion other than basic cards.
Although the basic gameplay rules are the same from one game of Dominion to the next, every game is different because a different set of Kingdom cards is chosen for each game. The set of Kingdom cards chosen in a particular game is often called the Kingdom. To date, there are 236 distinct possible Kingdom cards, 10 of which are ordinarily selected for each game; the heart of the strategy of the game is therefore adapting one's play to maximally benefit from the different combinations of abilities each game's particular set of Kingdom cards makes available. The majority of Kingdom cards are Actions, but all expansions have some Treasure and/or Victory kingdom cards as well.
If one of the Kingdom cards being used in a given game is Young Witch, an eleventh Kingdom card pile is added to the supply at the beginning of the game. Knights are a set of 10 differently-named cards that act as a single Kingdom card pile in the Supply. The card Black Market makes it possible to buy Kingdom cards that aren't present in the supply for that game.
