That would be Celtic, wouldn't it? There's no reason you couldn't have one embassy for these different times, since the units wouldn't be unlocked until later anyway.
Germany, surely?
I've long been in favor of having a few (probably just Argentina, Brazil and Mexico, for best cultural representation) entirely new South American nations to avoid weird situations like Pinochet leading the Inca, and to have some of the amazing modern architecture that has graced these places present as new citystyles. Also, Brazil would get to have a cool unique stadium-replacement
Rome, as above. One thing I'd like to see, actually, is some kind of mechanic where you can see splits into "sub-civilizations" depending on your controlling civ, rather than entirely new, often unrelated (like China into Arabs or Celts into Zulu) civs. Examples would be Rome dividing into the Venetian and Florentine Republics and Monaco, the Celts into the Highland Scots, Lowland Scots and Irish, the Mongolians into the Kazakhs, Uyghurs, Tibetans etc, or even the Americans into the Texas and California Republics and the Confederacy. Would create interesting situations, as a sort of less severe version of Revolution. You wouldn't control these other independent cities or city-states, but they'd be likely to unite with culturally similar civilizations against foreign invasion.
I think all the Workshop wonders should be restricted entirely to being built by
. But that's a matter for my own little thread.Ditto.
I actually kind of miss the Israel civ... but that might just be my amusement at seeing Judaism spread in Korea after China hogs all the religions with its huge ass population (although...)
Tibets probably a good example of a "civilization" that should be embassy only. A building would be a nice bonus, as would the fact it would come if you shared a common faith with the Tibetan people. They should have huge Mountaineering bonuses and Iron Age guerilla-skills, of course.
See the Leaning Tower.
See the Masada.
I can see good arguments for putting this as Viking, despite the significant cultural differences between Finland and other Scandinavian countries. I can also see good arguments for creating new Scandinavian countries to reflect historical powers like Denmark and Sweden. Decisions, decisions...
I noticed there were two of these... kind of pointless, though, since it can only be built instantly by a Great Prophet. Same applies to the Shrine of Bab.

Isn't that meant to be in Aztec territory? Too bad we don't have an anthropologist with us...
It'd be English, of course! Though, I'd actually rather this one was sped up with the Apostolic Palace, rather than any specific nations building. It's really the whole Crusades as a whole represented here rather than that of Richard. There also needs to be an Islamic equivalent, though that would obviously cross across eras.
Arab? I can see a case for giving both the Arab and Israeli embassies a boost with this one as a compromise.
Rome.
It's from the Indus Valley civilization, though with a decidedly African name. Still Indian, though.
