The newest preview said there will be 16 civs and "five cultures". What in the world does taht mean?

It also said that civs who were close together in "real life" will be in close proximity in the game world. That seems like a bad move to me. I think it is fun to ahve the Chinese fighting the Zulu's or something like that. The point is - it'S *not* real life. Doncha think?

Those 5 distinct cultures probably are European culture, Middle East/Arab culture, Asian culture, African culture, and Native American culture...

It also said that civs who were close together in "real life" will be in close proximity in the game world.

No worry here... I think Firaxis would allow players to toggle this feature on/off easily when specifying random map parameters.
