New gods and kings civ formula

I think that's fair, but I just think we should be careful to not simply include every single heritage site that is inside the civ's maximum extension into account. The pyramids may have helped to inspire Egypt, and they still inspire us today, but should we include them in any calculation other than the Egypt's? If we're doing this, a lot of civs will get a great score thanks to things they didn't build and are not related to in any way.

Serious.
Lol Scythia?! I presume you counted the whole of Asia and its billions in the PC resulting in the score? The geographic area included in the PC serves to push up the score rather considerably (Like Australia as a continent in its own right getting 50-something versus including the surrounding region shoving it up to well over 1000)
The main reason it did so well is it's hugeness and the huge amount of cultural heritage sites in that area (but I think I screwed something up, can someone double check this please

That's probably, at best, a rough estimation. The Scythians are not that well-known. It's not entirely clear if they referred to one group of people, an alliance of tribes, or if it was just a generic term for people in the area.
Yeah, that's why I felt weird about doing them at all, I think I'll remove them for now as well as Chola
Can this formula be changed to give bonus to Civilizations based on the region where they are . I think these bonus can be like this:
- If the Civilization is/was located in a region that have been never represented in Civ series,multiply their result by 2;
- If the Civilization is/was located in a region that isn't represented in Civ5,multiply their result by 1,5;
- If the Civilization is/was located in a region represented by only 1 Civilization in Civ5,multiply their result by 1;
- If the Civilization is/was located in a region represented by 2 or more civs in Civ5,multiply their result by 0,5;
Guess these numbers can be changed . What do you think?

Good idea, this is what I had in mind with the C/PC part of the formula. I think the /PC is important because Asia deserves more civs than Oceania. Do you have an idea for what the smaller regions could be?
Perhaps something like this:
For American Continent:
- Eastern North America ;
- Western North America
- Central America;
- Western South America,mainly represented by Andes;
- Eastern South America;
For European Continent,it can be:
- Western Europe;
- Scandinavia;
- Eastern Europe;
- Mediterranean,which also includes civilization from Middle East which happens to have their capital on Mediterranean Border;
For Africa,it can be:
- Saharan Africa;
- The transition area between Saharan Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa;
- Horn of Africa;
- Central Africa(which includes all the Civilizations which happens to have a Non-coastal Capital) ;
- Western Coast of Africa
- Eastern Coast of Africa;
- Southern Africa;
For Asia,it can be:
- Middle East side(which don't include Israel and Lebanon because they are consider Mediterranean)
- Indian Sub Continent;
- Central Asia;
- Inland Southern Asia;
- Malay Archipelago;
- Far East;
- Siberia;
These divisions are hard to make and it's quite easy to make mistakes . Any suggestion and fixs are welcome .

Sahel is the word you're looking for. Also, I'd say Africa is too subdivided.
Perhaps it would work better as "Southern Asia" (~Indian Subcontinent) and "Southeast Asia" (~Myanmar to Indonesia).
It's a nice idea, by the way.
Which is why I removed it from OP
Thanks . If Africa is too divided,then I think I could remove Southern Africa,because their frontier with Central Africa is too confusing and also removing the Eastern coast of Africa . With these Changes,the division of Africa is like this:
- Saharan Africa;
- Sahel;
- Horn of Africa;
- Central Africa(also includes Eastern Coast of Africa);
- Western Coast of Africa;
I guess it's better now .
Thanks . I think it'd be better to keep with Indian Subcontinent,because they aren't so much in the south as Malay Archipelago .

That works for me, pretty much what I had. A few changes, though. I would move Iran to the Middle East and, for historical purposes, the Asian part of Russia should be with Central Asia (I don't think this will matter much, though).
I would agree with you, but Wikipedia already has an article on the regions as they are, so I would leave it as it is to make everything easier.
