    The Greeks were one of the greatest civilizations of all time. They belong in the game.

    IMHO, the Romans belong just as much or more because of their impact on history. The Greeks gave them more culture than we could probably ever measure, but the Romans were the upstart little civilization that eventually ruled the entire Mediterannean area.

    Each have their own selling points.

    But again. We'll never agree on 1 civ being more significant. Too many ways to measure that, and too many ways to disagree. Thats the nature of things.
    I really don't see where we're disagreeing here...

                    Bah! Austrians are just Germans who were ruled by the Hapsburgs, they should be part of the German civ. I actually added a few Austrian city names to the German city list, Vienna is #2 after Berlin.

                      To true! Of course, the Dutch were another breakaway group, they just left earlier and have a language that's more convoluted. And Prussia forced Austria out; the Netherlands left of its own volition.

                            Good idea. I think I should add some Russian names to the Polish list, too...

                              White Russian perhaps, but not Yellow Russian.
