So India then?
 
Does this mean we're getting first looks on Wednesdays from now on? I'd gotten used to the prior schedule and everything.
 
The Peacock is the thing that really narrows it down when it comes to symbolism
 
This is just something I’ve been thinking about, since India will Be this week and the Cree next week. Do you think after this week it will be all new Civs we have never had before?

No. It's off by a day this week due to Christmas. Next week might be off a day too, but it will probably revert back to the usual schedule once the holidays are out of the way.

No most likely the public holiday moved things by a day (it has happened before) should be back to normal after the holidays
 
Yep not surprised, since chandragupta Maurya and Cree got leaked I knew it was going to be either one of those two most likely. Peacock could be India and if what I am guessing is correct We'll have Chandragupta first tomorrow and then the next first look after we'll get Cree.
 
From Chandragupta Maurya's wikipedia:

"His rule developed land routes for goods transportation within the Indian subcontinent, disfavoring water transport. Chandragupta expanded "roads suitable for carts", preferring these over those narrow tracts that allowed only pack animals.[91]

According to Kaushik Roy, the Maurya dynasty rulers, beginning with Chandragupta, were "great road builders".[27] This was a tradition the Greek ambassador Megasthenes credited to Chandragupta with the completion of a thousand-mile-long highway connecting Chandragupta's capital Pataliputra in Bihar to Taxila in the northwest where he studied. The other major strategic road infrastructure credited to this tradition spread from Pataliputra in various directions: one connecting it to Nepal, Kapilavastu, Kalsi (now Dehradun), Sasaram (now Mirzapur), Kalinga (now Odisha), Andhra and Karnataka.[27] This infrastructure not only boosted trade and commerce, states Roy, but also helped move his armies rapidly and more efficiently than ever before."

So speculate away!
 
Here's what I wonder though, what do the oxen and the road have to do with Chandragupta Maurya?

EDIT: nevermind.
 
Haha, my mind was not interpreting them as being a birds-eye view of carts. I was seeing some sort of weird hot air balloon thing and not understanding at all.
Glad I wasn't the only one. I thought he would be revealed last. I guess they might be saving the new Civs for the new year.
