1/7th of the civs get completely gamechanging bonuses while some seem just pitiful.
Napoleon = Incredible culture growth, you can get like 10 policies within the first 100 years without even building more than 2-3 monuments maybe. Very easy to spam golden ages with piety + the other golden age policy + great peoples. You save maybe 4000 gold within the first 200 turns from freebie territory from culture.
Japan = 1hp units that can drop you to 5hp on equal footing, drops you to 3hp if you are slightly outteched.
Babylon = GS spam.
Siam = your capital gets 6.75 food from maritime 1.50 for normal cities, universities grant a ton of culture and cost less to maintain.
China = tons of great generals, your libraries give tons of gold.
I mean, compared to everyone else I just don't even want to play say, germany or britain, come on.
