UPDATE TWO:
As nations expanded and began to do rudimentary trade and more advanced agricultural tecniques, they came into contact with each other. But the world is still largely unexplored and who knows if there are even more nations.
--Thanks for helping me do this speedy update. i have not much to talk about IC, but OOC, those that grew education, leadership, infrastructure etc, keep working at it and good things will appear.
Btw, as you grow your infrastructure, roads between your cities will appear randomly.
Growing education and leadership also will have their fruit. but it will take time and perseverance

.
As of the NPCs, i tried to have each NPC have a different shade of gray, but paint wont help me, so they are all dark gray. (arent too hard to figure out cus they arent much exotic of civs and capitals help you pick them out)
Update in 24 hours? or wednsday morning. So please send orders and keep these first udpates going. once there are things going on, the quiality of the udpate will be more wordy and storylike
