    One could say the same about the greeks.

      • The Greeks were big for about 50 years back in the BC. What have they done before or since? Nah, we need more post-colonial civilizations in the game. How about Brazil? I wonder how much it would be to license Jonathan Pryce's likeness to do that?

          One must wonder: WTF are the other 41 thinking?!

            The Greeks were big for a lot more than fifty years. Also, the fact that most/all of Western culture comes from them counts for something.

              Anyway, Greeks should be in all the way BUT I have to wonder if they put in Malinese just to go different than Zulu, or if they wanted a second 'Black' culture in the game, since previously its been only Zulu.

              So I dunno. I hope Greek, but it could be Zulu. Either way, the missing one will be added later.

              Also, if they ever do throw in Canada, I just want to vote Mary Ann Shadd and either Pierre Trudeau or (i guess) Tommy Douglas since he was voted the Greatest Canadian

              Cheers

              • Yea I was one who voted for the Zulu too. I agree they add flavor, It just becomes a different game when the Zulu are in town.

                      I think some mass bannings are in order.

                        • The only reason to have the Zulu is because of their cool Impi warriors.

                          Starting with the Zulu supporters!

                            • Someone suggested that the Zulu were probably replace by the Mali (is that right?) and that sounds like it might make sense. It's just harder for me to imagine the game without the Zulu, I'm not saying that they should get rid of the Greeks just because of the two I would choose Zulu.

                              Plus, at one point the tagline was 19 civs; maybe they are waiting to shock us and actually have 19! I doubt it but hey, hope for the best, prepare for the worst!

                              • I think they picked Mali over Zululand because Mali was an empire of sorts and the Zulus are still just poking around in their kraals.
