As I said, I'm very well aware the two nations are seperate... It's just that throughout history they have worked together on the grand scale and so having them as one nation in Civ wouldn't disallow them from acting the way they did in history...Khift said:The problem I have with the idea of people considering America to be simply an extension of England is that America forcefully removed itself from England's rule. I find it fairly suspect to call America and England one and the same under the Civ perspective when England has no direct pull on America's government, and the two are most certainly separate.

Regarding the Civs, I like your idea for 2.6 better. About the discovery of the Americas, 1350 AD is good. Christoffer Columbus discovered it in 1492 and Leif den Lykkelige around 1000 AD, so 1350 AD is within the limits - so to speak.

It makes even more sense now that I think about it. When you play Rhye's mod, do you ever remember the Byzantines having an empire that looked like the historical Byzantine empire? No? That's because they're surrounded by people that they had conquered back when they were still Rome. In order for the Byzantines to look like they did historcally, we'd have to remove the Greeks, at the very least. And just that's asking way too much.Blasphemous said:As I said, I'm very well aware the two nations are seperate...

But I am starting to agree that it makes sense to remove the Byz and add Poland... And since there's nobody really urgent to add instead of America, there's no need to remove them just yet.
I have made an accurate Byzantine Empire when playing as them.Khift said:It makes even more sense now that I think about it.
