          • Yeah, it looked impressive there for a while

            The original homeland of the Iroquois was in upstate New York between the Adirondack Mountains and Niagara Falls. Through conquest and migration, they gained control of most of the northeastern United States and eastern Canada. At its maximum in 1680, their empire extended west from the north shore of Chesapeake Bay through Kentucky to the junction of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers; then north following the Illinois River to the south end of Lake Michigan; east across all of lower Michigan, southern Ontario and adjacent parts of southwestern Quebec; and finally south through northern New England west of the Connecticut River through the Hudson and upper Delaware Valleys across Pennsylvania back to the Chesapeake. With two exceptions - the Mingo occupation of the upper Ohio Valley and the Caughnawaga migration to the upper St. Lawrence - the Iroquois did not, for the most part, physically occupy this vast area but remained in their upstate New York villages.

                • Just for spite they'll put Greece in, and with two leaders, but they'll be Philip Arrhidaios and Aristotle Onasis.

                        Canada covers more territory than Alexander's empire (and lasted longer).

                          Yes, and for hundred of years after its founding, Canada spread its culture around the world -- Canadization, just like the Hellenization that resulted from Alexander's Empire -- therefore the impact on world history from the great Canadian Empire is such that they should be in Civ4!

                          SARCASM!!!

                            Except it is a colony of another civilization, not a civilization of its own. Just as the USA.

                              My point exactly. Few, if any, civilizations could claim to have the impact Greece had on Western Civilization. Alexander was only a part of that.

                                Oh, and El Cid definitely not a good choice as Spain's leader. He fought both for and against Muslims and Christians.
