How about the Zapatistas? Are they too much of a political issue today or is it comsumable?

I hate to ask this (since I live in the area), but what exactly is this? The Confederate States of America was a real country (even if only for 4 years). What is the Northeast Corridor?
Click to expand...

The Northeast Corridor is the conurbation between DC and Boston. Miami's often incluided because it is so culturally similar. The Northeast has never been its own country but has a very unique culture and history and is very different than the rest of America. The Northeast Corridor also has had one of the most profound impacts on the rest of the world (with Wall Street, the UN, Independence Hall, the US Capitol, and the White House.) The South was never its own country, either, as no one but themselves recognized them as an independent nation. The Northeast has a culture and history as, probably more, unique than the South. If the South gets its own civ, the Northeast should, too.

OK, I'll buy that.

One more question, who's Peter Stuyestant?

I'd put Franklin as a great scientist to increase numbers.

For cities, even though I'm from the Philadelphia area, I think it might be better to put New York at the front. Since it never was a nation, its difficult to give it a capital, but, if a capital were created now, it would probably be New York. Also, if we wanted to base it on which was founded first, we'd end up going with something like Boston. I think that, although a case could be made for Philly, a better case could be made for New York.

I'm from Philadelphia so I decided to put it first, but you're right New York would work better as capitol.

Peter Stuyvesant was director-general of New Netherland at the time when it controlled the whole of the Mid-Atlantic. He was the closer person to an actual leader of the Northeast.

I decided to put Franklin as a leader because I thought the Northeast should have some leader that's scientific because of all its universities. But now that I think about it, Kennedy could be Scientific. I but him as expansive because of the space program, but scientific would probably make more sense.
 
Well, on the Zapatistas I really wouldn't like them as a UU representing the whole of Mexico especially because their concentrated in a region not even a official state.

On the U.S. regions we'll soon be seeing Wyomingans (j/K)

That is entirely irrelevent to the fact of whether or not they were their own country. The Confederate States of America were an independent political entity for five years; whether outside powers recognized that or not makes no difference whatsoever to the reality of the situation. Neither does your own personal stamp of approval.

Your so-called Northeast Corridor, however, was never it's own country, in any way, shape or form.

The White House is in the South... And the culture is VASTLY different between Maryland and Massachusetts... The "Northeast Corridor" is a freaking railroad.. not a Civilization/Culture..

You could however make an arguement for a New England Civ, that would make more sense.. But trying to tell me Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts are the same culturally(or were, the US is alot more homologous now) is a joke.:crazyeye:
 
Czech nation for CivIV is practically completed. I can't do flagdecal in DDS Convertor only. That flag is white in the game (I think it is because alpha channel). I don't have Photoshop or something similar. Can somebody help me? This is that flag:
attachment.php

If you can convert it to .dds what will be function please do it. Help me please!
 
I would like to see the Sioux added. On Earth maps its a lot of balance so the Americans don't have a whole continent uncontested.

I look at all these civ suggestions like a kid in a candy store. Fascinating, can't wait to try each one!
 
Which makes me think of the Outaouais and their leader Pondiac (Or Pontiac)... Don't know much about them though, I'd have to do some research And would add some more competition on an earth map... though that would put them in canadian territory... But eh, native civs are cool :)
