I think it was only appropriate because of the onion domes.I think the Laura is appropriate to any Eastern Orthodox civilization but the most appropriate for Byzantium; if Byzantium has another unique, however, it is appropriate for Bulgaria, Russia, etc. (That being said, I really like the suggestion others made of the Pogost for Russia in Civ7.)

But I'd like to see Russia get something else so the Lavra could go to the Byzantines next time.
Either way Byzantine Dromon and Byzantines Khelandion would be roughly the same unit in game, no matter what you call it, considering it was the Byzantines that used greek fire on their Dromons, and that's the main point behind the unit.None of these had Siphon flamethrowers.
2. And 'Dromon' using 'flamethrowers' at long range isn't really accurate.
So i'd chose Chelande as a name for Byzantine UU and being melee unit with stronger attack (well unless naval ranged combats were modified so that Siphon flamerthrowers will not be used against land targets, but even so, flamethrowers are CLOSE QUARTER RANGED weapons).
Good old Hussars come to mind.I know they're called "unique" units, but the very idea of a unit that's absolutely unique to one civilization is, essentially, ahistorical.
