+Now, we can design a factory for our different kingdom factories. In this example, we created FactoryMaker, responsible for returning an instance of either ElfKingdomFactory or OrcKingdomFactory.  
+The client can use FactoryMaker to create the desired concrete factory which, in turn, will produce different concrete objects (Army, King, Castle).  
+In this example, we also used an enum to parameterize which type of kingdom factory the client will ask for.
+
+```
+public static class FactoryMaker {
+
+  public enum KingdomType {
+    ELF, ORC
+  }
+
+  public static KingdomFactory makeFactory(KingdomType type) {
+    switch (type) {
+      case ELF:
+        return new ElfKingdomFactory();
+      case ORC:
+        return new OrcKingdomFactory();
+      default:
+        throw new IllegalArgumentException("KingdomType not supported.");
+    }
+  }
