Forget those Huns. What'd they ever do besides pillage and burn? How about the Songhai, or Sigilmasa, to add a little to Africa? Or maybe the Sioux, for old times' sake? Nez Pearce perhaps? Uh...

uhm... pillage and burn? afaik the mongols didn't do much else... ok ok, maybe they raped and slaughtered too...

one VERY important civ sometimes gets mentioned, but i always forget their name. it's an african civ in present day ethiopia...

Uh, it's true, the Mongols were pretty brutal... but AFTER Gengiz they killed out a little bit, and Kublai had a fairly learned, if not very united, empire...

As for Ethiopia, it is an ancient culture, well deserving of civ-membership in my opinion. It's history is fascinating and it has both conquered and been conquered.

But maybe you're thinking of what was right north of Ethiopia... Nubia. A rich expanionist empire.

Both Ethiopia and Nubia would be great additions in my opinion... anyone else agree?

DUDE! BONGOLIAN!

Speaking of which, how about the Jamaicans/Rastafari?

Portugal. Definitely. Without Portugal, there would be no Brazil. And Israel ought to be added. They are a very important part of history. And the Incas ought to be there too. I mean, without them the Aztecs could expand right into South America with nothing to stop them (I played a world-map game with correct starting locations once), and even though the Spanish conquered the Incas (easier than the Atecs, certainly) they still stirke me as an important civilization.
Cadana or Australia separate civs? Why not? Well, the Iriquois took up Canada in one game I played, but Australia as a civ? Hmm. Have you guys even considered that Australia was originally an English prison colony?

Yeah, those Canucks and those Aussies don't deserve their own Civ!

Seriously, prejudice slurs aside, I'd say that neither of those countries truly warrant their own Civ, due to their consistent subservience too, even after independence, Britain. We could argue this point of course, but they're part of the same market bloc and (generally) endorse the same foreign policy (although Canada is notably more pacifist than either Britain or Australia).

The Aborigonies, though, that's an idea...

How about the Iniuts or Eskimos?

I'm not prejudiced! I'm just stating what I know!

I have nothing against Australia or Canada, I just heard somewhere that Australia was a prison colony once.

hi ,

and that is the truth

Sorry, I was just trying to make sure I wasn't seen as bigoted, because I'm not. Any country that can produce boomerangs and Crocodile Dundee, in my opinion, is very cool. Same goes for Canada, which gave us Hockey, and in the case of my home state, gave Phoenix the Coyotes. Canada is cool.

Australia WAS a prison colony. Maybe that's why they're so hot on kicking immigrants out of their country, exterminating the aborigonies, etc. Actually, Australia might be an interesting country to include... militaristic and industrious? There's only one so far... maybe militaristic and commercial?
