Of all those you've listed, I tried only India and Maya. India is quite tough, but possible. Their greatest problem is the population because of numerous jungles. Maya is easy. I've found Rome, China and Persia to be quite difficult. Rome has a lot to do in a very short time. China needs 8 cities, each with 2 temples and then 2 cathedrals, plus needs to found the two religions, and then to have 150 units....sounds quite impossible to me. With Persia, I had a problem with land area. I conquered all Persians did conquer historically, plus India, and I only had somewhat less than 4% of world area.

I find I have a tough time with china, too. It seems like I'm always losing out on confucianism, no matter what I do...
@ Nameless: Go after Greece and Rome, or Carthage and Ethiopia. Also, get your culture up somehow (anything from temples to libraries), and you will get a lot closer. I conquered India, Babylonia, Greece, Egypt, and Ethiopia, and built cultural buildings (just one per city). I got 8.04%, just under the wire. The Egyptians had built Stonehenge, that worked as well.

There are a lot more than 6 Civs, so the poll is really which of these 6 civs has the hardest UHV to achieve.
I found China, Ethiopia and Babylon very tough (although I did get there eventually) - these were at least as hard as India and Maya were, but they aren't in the poll?

This poll is very old. There has been at least one major patch since October 
In particular Maya is a poor choice for this poll, since as long as you know how to avoid the conquerors and no one else builds the Temple quickly (this is the luck part) it is very easy in my opinion.
To be fair though, the rest are tough and personally I haven't completed any of them, while I have completed China, Babylon and Ethiopia. I would rate China and Babylon as quite tricky, but of only medium-hard difficulty. Ethiopia certainly deserves to be on there though.
