    And, in case firaxis didn't already realize it, there is strong support for including Spain.

        At this point, there have been 5 total voters, each of whom has voted for those civs. each voter can vote for as many (or as few) as he wants.

          BTW I know I didn't pick Judea or Israel, but there weren't enough poll options. Same with Australia and Brazil and the Apache.

            well i'm just concerned with spain and the incas. hopefully they'll make a native american culture group and put the US back with western europe. maybe they can make an eastern europe group too or something. 2 african civs wouldn't be a bad idea, just so they can make an african culture so the zulu aren't with the persians and babylonians, which is rediculous anyway. the arabs could go with that group, though.

            i also voted for the turks and mongols, good additions i'd say. i'm not too concerned about carthage or the others though.

              I will vote after I see some kind of official decision from Civ 3. The reason for this is simple: will Firaxis/Infogrames listen to the fans on which 8? Probably not. We have had limited success on many things we have encouraged them to do. We being the Civ 3 communities: Apolyton, 1BigCommunity, CivFanatics, etc. We also being when large segments of these communities have made the same comments/requests.

              It is extremely likely the 8 have already been decided; otherwise, they are way premature in such a release of information, what little there was.

                    I was doing some thinking in those lines as well. Here is my list on my own version of which civ gets what culture group. (* denotes new civ).

                    Americans:
                    Iraqious
                    Aztecs
                    *Inca
                    *Maya

                    Western Europe:
                    England
                    France
                    Americans
                    *Spain
                    *Celts

                    Eastern Europe:
                    Germany
                    Russia
                    *Poland

                    Med. Sea:
                    Roma
                    Greece
                    *Carthage

                    Africa:
                    Zulu
                    Egypt
                    *Ethiopia

                    Middle East:
                    Persians
                    Babs
                    India

                    Asia:
                    China
                    Japan
                    *Mongols
                    I drink to one other, and may that other be he, to drink to another, and may that other be me!

                      Thrawn05: replace Poland with the Vikings and you may have it right. After all, if Germany can be considered Eastern European then so can the Vikings. I can't see Poland being included. Not enough interest in them.

                          Suoix? That's culturally insensitive.

                          I want Ethiopians.

                            Apache???


                            I voted Spanish/Arabs/Incas/other African/Koreans, but:
                            1. I pray "other African" does not mean Ethiopia
                            2. If Arabs are out, then I would vote Turks.
