Turkey defeats Colombia and goes to round 2!
Match 5:
In the yellow corner, spawning in 3000 BC in the fertile Nile floodplains, it's
Egypt
VS
In the brown corner, spawning in 711 AD in a beautiful city they seem doomed to lose, it's
Moors
VS
Spawning in 1200 BC in the Levant, and then soon after settling to their west and getting in an inevitable conflict with Rome, it's
Phoenicia and Carthage

Until yesterday, I would probably have voted the Moors myself for the sheer beauty of Cordoba and their interesting alternate universe potential in-game. But yesterday I ended up reading through the entire history of Egypt, from prehistory to 2012's riots on Wikipedia, and now I really can't vote for either of the others.

Phoenicia or Egypt... hmm...
Egypt wins over slightly for building more monuments and generally lasting longer.

I won't call it the Group of Death (that would be Russia/Tamil/Arabia or Spain/Prussia/Greece), but it's quite close.
UP: Moors > Egypt > Carthage
Moorish UP is one of the strongest and most interesting in the game. But it expires rather early. Carthaginian UP is very situational and will be completely changed/removed with the removal of mercenaries.
UU: Carthage > Moors > Egypt
None of the UUs is very unique at all so they are ranked according to effectiveness.
UB: Egypt > Carthage = Moors
Too close to call, but Egyptian UB works best with their terrain and UHVs. And it's more unique than the other two.
UHV: Carthage = Moors > Egypt
Again very close, but 2 of Egypts UHVs are cultural - they feel repetitive, especially the 2nd one which offers very little challenge.
AI performance:
Too close to tell. All expand historically but can't offer to much resistance to Human players (of Rome/Greece/Spain).
In the end my vote goes to Moors because they don't have obvious weaknesses like the other two (Egyptian UHV and Carthaginian UP).
