      Yes!!! It's great to notice that other people like the realistic splitting up thing. I can remember India separating itself from Carthage and more of the same in Civ II, how strange I thought. Dervish with such trees such game-concepts could increasingly become interesting. Send firaxis an e-mail I would say.

                    Has anyone of you guys ever played game called Ethnic cleansing, where you play current oppresed minorities like Kurds, Tamils, Basques, Corsicans, Chechens, Irish against their current respective opressors?? Or vice versa. Nice idea, eh?

                                Aren't all these language groups?

                                Equating them with ethnic groups would be like saying that all English-speakers are Anglo-Saxon, which i believe a lot of us here wouldn't agree to.
