Calm down KD. I dont have any problem with the "picky" rules in Singapore at all. In fact, I think most people (or at least myself) view the rules in a sense of awe. Id like to visit Singapore someday and see how it really is the largest clean and quiet city in the world.

One is not mad. Just explaining S'pore's point of view. S'poreans had been the butt of jokes for too often because of these rules - even I used to make such jokes until I have to live here.

If you want to know what it's like w/o such 'small' rules, cross the border and visit my hometown, Johor Bahru in M'sia. Even the industrial estates in S'pore are probably cleaner than my housing estate...

Also, the Chinese, esp of the older generation, have the disgusting habit of spitting in public, amongst other stuff. Still happens in M'sia now and then.

For conquest, I voted for the European civs, at their high-time (lets say before WW2) they controlled pritty much of the globe together.
For technology, I would vote for China, since they were pretty advanced in time, at least more advanced than Europeans untill about 1400.

i think i saw somebody say the celts had died out or europe had lost it's celtic roots or something.

but they haven't completely died out. i mean, there are still 7 celtic nations in europe (even if one of them is cornwall).

i voted for european btw.

how silly to have a poll on empires/civs and not have britain even with its own option.

The British are the perfect European cocktail : ethnically and culturally (language at least) they are Germanic, Latin and Celtic, which are the 3 main Western European groups.
