Can anyone suggest a game that a civilization fan could like? Other than Civ series 
Can you suggest a game?

Imperialism, I or II. 
Both excellent games. Imp II is I think still available, Imp I isn't but can be found as abware.

I have already dominated Europe a few times as Indians. I'll check the "Imperialism II". Thanks.

Diplomacy of course!
Or Europa Universalis!
Or get a few old boardgames (AH of course
), and play those!

Well, how about Heroes of Might and Magic series, Master of Magic, Master of Orion series, X-Com Series, Age of Wonders, Empires of the Fading Sun and basically every round based game
I can't wait for that DOS emulator to get really good so I can play Master of Magic again and the Crusader games

If you're Star Trek fan Birth of the Federation is a good game. If not I can't help you

Imperialism II is a very good game to get if you love Civ. I like Worms Armageddon too. (Not quite like Civ but if you want a break from real thinking games then this is great. At least its turnbased.) Anyway, HMM2 is a good one as is MOO Got all these games and I love them. Oh, forgot this one, Lords of the Realm 2. Good turn-based game with warcraft2-esque fighting sequences.

Master of Orion series, best either MoO2 or wait for MoO3 (only a few weeks ). Not sure if MoO3 will fulfill the expectations, but I sure hope so. 
Other things to recommend are Master of Magic, Heroes of Might and Magic and in lesser extent games like Age of Wonders, Birth of the Federation and even the modded CtP1 or 2 (
).
If you also play RTS, go for Starcraft.

Master of Magic, of course. Takes some patience to get it to run with sound under Win 2000, but it's worth the effort if you want to time travel back into the nineties.
If you like RTS, try to get your hands on a copy of Total Annihilation plus addon (Core Contingency). It's not exactly a new game, but still the best of its kind imho. The grafics are still acceptable, the engine is still brilliant and major battles still have that unique "there's no tommorow" feeling.

Cossacks, Imperialism I and II, and Europe Universalis.

For an oldie: COLONIZATION
For a new one: Europa Universalis II
If you want to see real units: Age of Empire/Age of Kings/AgeofMitology series and Cossacks
SMAC (Sid Meyer's Alpha Centaury)!!!
Civ: Call to Power (I hate this one, but...)
If you want to use magic and a Turn Strategy game with hero's and all type of sourcery: Heroes of Might and Magic Series (IV is the last one...)
So many options...

I'd like to think I am a Civer first and 2 games I enjoyed over the last year that are not Civ related are SimGolf and GTA3.
Simgolf was a big surprise.Very addictive.Rumoured to be using a tweaked version of the SMAC engine.A nice stress free game.Demo available
GTA3 was/is just an awesome game.Lots of discovery and strategy,not unlike Civ.Great thing is there are numerous ways to beat missions.Not the easiest game to get running unfortunately.Personally,I had no problems but many have.

Just happy to be here
If you like the city-building aspect of Civ, then any of the SimCity games are a safe bet.
