... building the Pyramids in a coastal city in CivBE Earth so that they would end up in the water.
Haha, maybe the shot in the BE trailer is a nod to Civ 5's watery wonders?

I'm surprised no one has mentioned a natural disaster. The Yellowstone Super Volcano, large asteroids such as the one last year in Russia, tsunamis like in Japan, earthquakes like the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, or even an ice age like the one from The Day After Tomorrow but less more dramatic.
Those would be great disasters, but would hardly qualify as "mistakes"I'm surprised no one has mentioned a natural disaster.

Will Miller specifically says in the PAX East panel that "No one really knows what the Great Mistake was," though he goes on in the same breath to theorize that it was triggered by a nuclear exchange in the Asian subcontinent.
What about all of those nuclear bombs during the Cold War? IIRC, there were well over 2000 nukes that went off between 1945 and 2013. All but 2 were tests.
