) with American values, but without American morals. Furthermore, this indepence you claim is very, very new, and was hardly gained peacefully. The American Revolution showed the British how to keep its colonies, and the Americans that fought them in 1776 and 1812 proved that to keep its North American Empire, Canada must be fortified and militarily strengthened, and to prevent pro-American sentiment, its politics must be centralized around anti-American sentiment. And in the mid 19th century, when America's stability was questioned, the British favored the doomed confederates, because that wuld weaken the US. When the civil war was won, Canada seemed fair game (manifest destiny eh? with no more slave states v.s. free states, the USA was free to go north ex. Alaska, 54' lat oregon). to buffer Canadian nationalism, the Dominion of Canada was formed as a British puppet state, created simply on the premises of anti-Americanist rhetoric, to augment British power and influence in the region (Queen Victoria was slicing up the world for her empire). The sad thing is, even after WWI, and WWII, when the British Empire collapsed and Canada could overpower the UK, Canadians remained loyal subjects of the queen's realm or a few more decades.Lesser nations were free before Canada. Australia and New Zealand peacefully withdrew before Canada. India withdrew before Canada. Burma withdrew. Tiny Brunei left before Canada grew the balls to. It took until 1968, two decades after the crumbling British Empire disinigrated, for Canada to leave the ranks of Gibraltar and the Falkand Islands to become an independant nation. Despite all this, the largest seed sown by the British monarchs, Anti-Americanism, has grown into an ugly tree that sends a bad precedent for the rest of the world.Technically the Aztecs, Mayans and Incas where Native American. I don't see why Brazil, Mexico or Brazil would be added either - can you please explain?
I don't see how being the first black republic has anything to do with being the dominant state of Northeast Africa for a large portion of history as well as being the only African state other than Liberia to survive the Scramble for Africa.
Gaul is a civ, its represented mostly by the Celts (Gallic Warrior, Brennus, etc.).
Well yes i know the Aztecs, Mayans and Incas were Native American. I meant Native North American when i said Iroquois and Sioux. BTW when talking to me, note that i consider Aztecs and Mayans as Meso American, Iroqious and the like as Native American, and Inca's as well... i don't really call the inca's anything...

Brazil, Mexico or Brazil? I thin you meant Venezuela, but, i'll give it a shot.
Mexico - i guess you could call them an important player in the history of the America's. There isn't really a reason other then to just have them.
Brazil - i think it's pretty obvious, big important country.
Venezuela - Very important in the history of the Americas. Have you ever heard of Gran Colombia? Simon Boliver? Liberatadors? i say Venezuela/Gran Colombia's war of independence (which includes Colombia, Panama, Guyana, Surinam, Ecuador and Peru as well as Venezuela) is much more interesting then the american war of independence.
As for the Swahili, since your so interested in Southern Asian civilization, you should know about the Swahili, who have traded alot with Arabia, India, and later on Europe, And got rich doing so. Sure they were never a unified state, But instead they were city states like Greece or the Maya.
I would like the Malay civilization to be included as a civilization.
Is not the Khmer civ from BTS something like Malay?
The great thing about the game is that u can take any small nation and with your leadership can make it great. I would for that matter appreciate more subtle diplomacy and economy and special historical events that would correspond with the way player is behaving in the game.
I would also like to see Poland or Hungary to represent the central Europe since that is the region I am hailing from.
And do not forget the great Moghul empire
