Henri Christophe
L'empereur
I draw this map to show how diverse (or not) civ 5 was, it is surprising how the civilizations who lived next to the Mediterranean sea have a lot of representation and others places of the world was just ignored.

The area knows as India and Indochina have thousand of different empires (As Mughal, Vietnam, Maratha, Thai) and despite that just have TWO civilizations of this area (Siam and India), and Indias is just the British version of the Indian society. Where is the Delhi Sultanate? :/
Another area really under-represented is Mexico, having really amazing societies for 3.000 years before Christy, the only civs there are is who had any contact with Europeans. Just Aztecs from Mexico, despite the fact the Toltecs was the biggest empire before Spain or others Civilizations as Zapotecs and Olmecs don't have any representation. In other hands, the Roman empire is at least represented two times, (or more, because the Russland, Austria, and Turks also believe at some point they also were the continuous of the Roman empire)
Africa maybe is better in Civ 6 with Kongo civilization but is that enough to represent this continent. Why this game never had at least one Slavery kingdom of West Africa? Is that shame of the Atlantic Slavery Trade!? Or maybe anyone cares to South Atlantic history?
