Hi.

I have difficulties to model active record.
So please help my trouble.

Let's suppose there are nations which have castles at least 1,
and there are 3 types of castles.

So I will make these tables.
NationsTable,
CastlesTable have common attributes of 3 types of castle.
    CastlesATable, CastlesBTable, CastlesCTable each have its unique
attributes.

In this case how can I represent this DB to AR?
I think
class Nation < ActiveRecord::Base
   has_many :castles
end
class Castle < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :Nations
end

but I'm not sure of what will be coded to these models.

class CastleA < ActiveRecord::Base
end
class CastleB < ActiveRecord::Base
end
class CastleB < ActiveRecord::Base
end

please help me.

and second question is
when nation deleted, CastleA, CastleB have to be deleted but not for
the castleC type.
how can I do?

thanks for reading.
