Now, what language is the dominant one in the world, mmmm? That's a simply HUGE effect on the world, and yes, Latin is worthy on much the same grounds, but there are civs which still have high points but have done a much poorer job of spreading aspects of their culture so widely.

You can't vote out a global empire which spread it's culture, civilization and institutions across half the globe, and keep a silly, small country who was once very good at shepherding slaves."Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master" - Commissioner Pravin Lal.

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

22 - ChinaI don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.
