My take on the HRE. The gameplay is focused on Befriending IPs and using their bonuses towards any legacy path. You can play aggressive with leaders like Tecumseh, or focus certain IPs and using the unique buildings for culture/science. I tried referencing as much history as I could, but I'm sure I've missed some. Also have no idea what the traditions or symbol should be. Russia already took the double-headed eagle

Because Byzantium got wrecked by the Ottoman Empire before the age of exploration.
"The Byzantine Empire fell once and for all in the year 1453 CE, when the Ottoman Empire broke through the walls of Constantinople with cannons and seized control of the capital city. The last Byzantine Emperor, Constantine XI, died in that battle."
The Byzantine Empire, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire, existed from 330 to 1453, lasting over 1,100 years. It originated with Emperor Constantine's decision to establish a new capital, Constantinople, in 330, which later became the empire's center. The empire's fall came with the Ottoman Turks' conquest of Constantinople in 1453.

"Like their Frankish neighbours, the Burgundians descended from Germanic tribes in the Rhine valley.

(I've deliberately included French cities that weren't geograpgically inside the Duchy of Burgundy, but were inside their sphere of influence, (under their de facto control at some point) while avoiding cites outside of France that were a part of their realm. Burgundy should vassalize independents and incorporate them into their realm, and the city list above is more in tune with that playstyle.)

Cunning diplomats and gregarious rulers, the tales of their prosperity quickly spread to the surrounding polities, and Burgundy's rulers rulers were always a popular guest at many a banquet, where the established a complex network of alliances and vassals. Politics is a fickle game, however. When Charles the Bold ascended Burgundy to the height of its power and influence, he also made enemies. When he died in battle without a viable heir, his empire was devoured by the French, Austrians and Spanish within years."

(I've deliberately included French cities that weren't geograpgically inside the Duchy of Burgundy, but were inside their sphere of influence, (under their de facto control at some point) while avoiding cites outside of France that were a part of their realm. Burgundy should vassalize independents and incorporate them into their realm, and the city list above is more in tune with that playstyle.)

Austria-Hungary is difficult to base a Civ on, as it was basically 5 different nations stitched together, but I came up with something that could realistically work for Civ 7. I wanted to represent the Dual Monarchy and the nationalist division that plagued the country. I based a lot of the design off of the Civ 6 loyalty mechanics, Happiness work as a similar feature. There's also a bit from Prussia and Civ 5's Austria in here. The general idea is to manage your Happiness penalties (using well-positioned Capitals to help) for big Culture gains and Economic legacy points. I dont play much of the Modern Age so I'm not certain if the penalties are too harsh or too lenient.

The Abbasid Caliphate collapsed in 1258 CE when the Mongols sacked Baghdad (though members of the Abbasid family held the title of Caliph until the Ottoman conquest of Egypt). The Byzantines make sense as an Exploration Age civ according to the game's chronologic. Note also that the Sassanids (Byzantium's great rival) are represented as a people in the Exploration Age with the Independent Power of Istakhr.
