Why not put EU capitol in strausbourg? Central location, site of Eu parliment?

strasbourg is too close to Paris.

well.. then so is brussels.

and to decide what's the capital of europe, my next choice would in fact be berlin.

why?
- germany is the clearly largest european nation (80 million, vs. approx. 60 million in GB, france and italy)
- germany also has the highest GNP
- summed up, frankfurt (germany) has the biggest capitalisation of europe, except london, which however is in a separate civ in your scenario.

so in my opinion: berlin as capital. münchen (=munich), hamburg and frankfurt as further cities (and please use the native spellings of the cities)

[sabrewolf]

oh... and something else to make in more realistic:
put 2 foreign citizens in german cities: turks
and in french and spanish cities some arabs

[sabrewolf]

and my last post for the moment:
please DO make a smaller version aswell (maybe 120x120) because i just tried teturkans world map with placed cities and although you start with no units except the king, even the first moves took way too long... and on his map 3/4 of the world isn't even inhabitated!

so pleeeeeease, pleeeeeease, pleeeeeease

Not possible with current editor options.

I think there's a smaller scenario like mine, fortunately. I've seen screenshots but never actually found the scenario.

Strasbourg is directly between Munich and Paris, which are about 3 squares from each other. Brussels is farther north, so it is represented. So the question, I think, is Berin, Paris, or Brussels.

1st brussels
2nd berlin
3rd paris

(order of my preference)

Ok, I'm overseas at the moment Just come back from russia (and travelling there again) I'm in Shanghai, China at the moment and travelled through Monglia along the way, So I'll just talk about the ones I know anything about

Originally posted by Jaguar Warrior

1. England (Canada and Australia)
5. Russia (Little Asian countries)
13. Russia (Some of East Europe)
14. China (NK, Mongolia, Nepal, Tibet)

Canada is French.... Australia is on the verge of declaring Republic (or at least sperating from england)

Russia in general should be sperate from all the other East Europeon states, and relys on resources from other countries, (they havn't got enough resources for themselves)
Monglia Could be under russian, but definately not under china, they dont have anything similar in culture, stature, or eceonomy, like china does.
Taiwan, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing and Guong Zhou are all similar in growth, size and economy status, etc etc...

Hope this info helps

Oh and after China's 16th CPC blah blah blah, thier gonna be formidable in the years to come... better start learning chinese ... lol...

Brasil capital is Rio de Janeiro???

Hello, I´d like to post something....
Brasil´s capital is Brasilia, not rio de janeiro...
And also the new president is Luis Inácio Lula da Silva, or just Lula da Silva.
BTW, what is the config of your computer, man? To run such a big map so quickly... how much Mghz and ram.
I really think you should have some kind of Independent nations... for example:
Chechenia( a single city with few guerilla units inside and lots outside fortified in mountains, just between a russian road leading to an oil colony)
South Ireland´s IRA
Colombia´s Farcs(a guerilla group that wants to make colombia comunist, and have one town near the border and guerillas and one or two tanks)
And some more guerilla in africa.
has anybody tought on the possibility of making the old WW2 aircraft carrier?
See ya!

Only Quebec is french, and even they have the Queen on their currency.

Russia is only short on rubber. The rest they can procure from inside their own borders. They have plenty of coal, aluminum, uranium, and iron, and they have extra oil.

Monglia Could be under russian, but definately not under china, they dont have anything similar in culture, stature, or eceonomy, like china does.
Taiwan, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing and Guong Zhou are all similar in growth, size and economy status, etc etc...

Mongolia is Russian.

I want to put Taiwan with Japan, as both are island nations in the far East that have bad relations with China and strong capitalist economies.

Ok, I'll remember the leade name. You have a better idea of what Brazil should be like than I do.

Keep in mind that I am including several other countries, such as Argentina, in that civ. I know Brasilia is the capital of Brazil, but Rio de Janeiro is much bigger and more famous. I'm not choosing the capital of Brazil here, I'm choosing the capital of Southern South America.

Don't forget that sometimes some of them are randomly in South America.

[sabrewolf]

well, i'm not expert on north american history. but iirc, more than half of the present USA was either spanish or french. and also a big part of canada.

exact figures about canada (Source: http://www.maptown.com/geos/canada.html):
Population: 31,281,092
Ethnic groups: British Isles origin 28%, French origin 23%, other European 15%, Amerindian 2%, other, mostly Asian, African, Arab 6%, mixed background 26%
[B]Languages:Ethnic groups: English 59.3% (official), French 23.2% (official), other 17.5%

and because this is a "modern day" scenario, canada under english reign is more likely (but still not correct) than under french.
