so whats the difference beetween that civ and our civ?
But who the heck is Mr. Tang? And why would they remove Mao Zedong? Do they hate him in China? I thought they only hated him in Taiwan...
Well, current Chinese goverment simply does not want you to be able to raze all Chinese cities of AI Mao to the ground and eliminate him from the game.![]()
I actually like the Qin Shi Huangdi in that version better. He looks more historically accurate.

If they really cared about 'freedom', my government would AT LEAST put the smack down on companies cooperating with repressive regimes.
Primary difference: Nobody used a marker to draw a moustache on a LH in "our" civ. I think my six-year-old could have done a better job re-skinning those LHs. If Firaxis did this, then they must have given the job to some high-school interns. That being the case, I hope those same interns aren't now working on Beyond the Sword.
A couple of the Warlords leaders look "plastic" (they have a lot of shine on their skin).
Its because the Chinese government likes to censor everything that doesn't adhere to their narrow views. They would not tolerate Japan and Mongolia as being historically important in the game for example.
They banned the movie Memoirs of a Geisha in China, because it is set during war time (even though the war barely gets a reference). I suspect it is because it portrays the Japanese as normal people, instead of as the inhuman monsters they like to portray them as.
I can't believe Firaxis would do this. They have no honour.

I wonder how they implement civics? Surely Police State, Free Speech, Free Religion and the other more 'liberal' civics would be matters of contention?
Maybe the Chinese couldn't bear to see "the Mao has been eliminated!!"
