Armenians 6 (5+1) Georgia has 22 and Armenia 5? I hope that's just the Tamar effect.
Ashanti 21
Babylonians 20
Benin (Dahomey)/Benin (Nigeria) 17
Carthaginians 13
Creek/Muskogee/Other SE NA 17

Mayans 23 (22+1) I still think this is the most important (which is of course a subjective evaluation) civ that has been left out and should thus be leading. The Inca are often overrated in popular history, they weren't as mighty an empire as many think and it didn't last (as an empire) that long. However, they should be added as well - and rightfully so! But after the Maya which I consider both the most important and impressive civ (by far) in the Americas.

Ethiopians 20
Georgians 22
Haida/Tlingit/Other PNW 15 (14 + 1) The point of adding additional civs to the game is to add variety, and I think these groups would add more than any other option.

Ethiopians 20 + 1 = 21 They are very interesting, and a civilization that should be a staple in the game.
Georgians 22
Haida/Tlingit/Other PNW 15
Hebrews 15
Hittites 18
Incas 23
Iroquois 22
Italians 15 - 3 = 12 Why has the Netherlands already fallen and Portugal have so few points while Italy still have many points? I thought that the traditional European powers had more priority.

Iroquois 21 + 1 = 22 Interesting native American civ with real leaders such as Joseph Brant, as well as real cities
NB that the Iroquois didn't actually have individual leaders, being led by a council; Joseph Brant was never the leader of the Iroquois but a war chief of the Mohawk. I wouldn't object to him--I'd consider him preferable to Hiawatha or Great Peacemaker--but Iroquois leadership isn't quite as clear cut as you suggest. Joseph Brant may also be viewed as a dubious choice because it was pro-British war chiefs like Brant and his pro-American counterparts like Skenandon of the Oneida who broke the Iroquois' 200+ year policy of playing the powers against each other and ultimately broke the League.
 
Dutch were eliminated before Portugal, what madness is this? :crazyeye: I don't understand how is the second banana compared to Spain more needed than the return of William's fancy pants?

Benin (Dahomey)/Benin (Nigeria) (17+1)=18 I just find both Dahomey and Benin to be interesting pre-colonial states in West Africa. Either they or Ashanti are worthy to represent the West African coast.

Vietnamese (12-3)=9 I've given my reasons before. I don't want a Vietnam war based Civ. Trung Sisters are unlikely to be made into Civ leaders, and I prefer an Indianized mainland SE Asian Civ like Khmer, Burma or Siam.
 
Armenians 6-3=3 Probably time for them to go.

Hebrews 15+1=16 I find the notion espoused on the last page that the Hebrews were always overshadowed by the Elamites and Philistines to be laughable. At least the Philistines were close rivals, but Elamites?

Hittites 18
Incas 23

Vietnamese 6 (9 - 3) -- I prefer Siam.

Hebrews 13 (16-3) The Kingmaker is of course right, I meant to write Aram not Elam. And now I'll probably hear that Aram belongs to the Hebrew civ anyway...

Maori/Other Polynesians 21
Mayans 23 (22+1) I tried to do it before: imho the most important and by a long shot the most impressive pre-columbian civ in the new world. I know the Inca are very popular and stylized as incredibly important by the popular history guys. But reading up on them teaches you their are important and definitely should be in the game - but their are not as powerful, long-lasting or impressive as they are often thought of. Maybe if they had less bad luck in history, this would have been different. Anyway: 1. Maya, 2. Inca

Hebrews 13 + 1 = 14 (Should at least outlast the Italians. If ever there was a Civ for the Hebrews to make an entry, it would be VI, as it has a religious victory, and the Hebrews had a huge religious influence on the world, arguably more so than India, which is already in the game with a religious bonus. Furthermore, unlike with the Haida/Tlingit/Other PNW, we have well-attested leaders for this civ, namely Hezekiah and Salome Alexandra, both capable rulers who made Judah mighty.)

Wait a minute shouldn't there be a vote every 24 hours? You're just four hours early
 
Spoiler :

I'm sorry to interrupt, my goal was not to go into such discussions anymore. But this is actually funny. I clicked on the link, and looked up the source. Thankfully, it's a book I remember reading quite well. You should do give it a try if you are interested in the minefield that is the history of ancient Israel. Concerning Hezekiah he gives quite good arguments, why he was stylized as a much greater King in later times than he actually was. But maybe the writer of the wikipedia entry didn't read the book and just found some random sentences in it?
