How about different resources spawn for different civs with different techs?
Bananas were used in Khmer long before the Europeans.
Cotton was cultivated by the Arabs long before the Industiral Age.
Sugar was cultivated in Mesopotamia and china and India before Machinery
My suggestions is that Orthodoxy, Protestantism and Catholicism are three very important, world influencing religions that should be included into this mod.
Catholocism and Protestantism are already included and in my opinion if any Christianity is overrepresented in many games. Islam on the other hand is very underrepresented; in my opinion Shiite Islam should be included preferrably at the same time Persian respawn is added to the game. Orthodoxy is also a good option since it was the state religion of quite of a few civs (Byzantine, Greece, Russia)
Judaism should be included (perhaps as a minor religion) but I think Israel should be included, as well, to affect the late game.
Again why are people giving so much attention to Israel and Judaism. I can think of tons of religions and nations to add before Israel and Judaism.
Religion that should be given priority:
Shiite Islam
Orthodoxy
Confucianism
Iffy Religions:
Maye Hellenism
Maybe some kind of Paganistic religion that should be there in Mesoamerica, Ancient Egypt, Babylon and Pheonocia.
After all these religions are considered or included and it is still plausible and sensible to add Judaism should be considered. Judaism should not be priority religion.
As far as Israel is considered; I think it is just silly to consider such a small country of a mere six million people.
There are tons of countries that need to be given priority over Israel: Egypt (respawn), Berbers, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Mexico, Indonesia, Canada, India (respawn), Central Asian Civ, West African respawn, Prussia( Germany). And if Israel is added so should Jordan and Syria.
This not meant to be offensive and nobody should take it the wrong way
