What about building a lunar colony? For a VC for the future era?
If you can already go to another planet, the moon is a bit 'short' for being futuristic.

Before a 'Future Era' - which I'm indifferent to - I'd like to see the 'Modern Era' explored more deeply. They're doing something in that sense by adding WWI and WWII units, but I'd like see more 'Contemporary' Techs, Units, Buildings and Wonders. Internet is a noteworthy absence, but there are plenty of ideas out there (Telecommunications, Tourism, Airports, Shopping Malls/Supermarkets etc.).

Why don't they just use the periodisation system established in the science of history:
Classical Antiquity (800 B.C. - 600 A.D.)
Middle Ages (600 A.D. - 1500 A.D.)
Modern Era (1500 A.D. - today)
- Early Middle Ages (600 A.D. - 1000 A.D.)
- High Middle Ages (1000 A.D. - 1250 A.D.)
- Late Middle Ages (1250 A.D. - 1500 A.D.)
- Early Modern Era (1500 A.D. - 1789 A.D.)
- Late Modern Era (1789 A.D. - 1918 A.D.)
- Contemporary Era (1918 A.D. - today)
Of course, this periodisation system also is quite subjective and criticisable, however, as I've said, well-established.
