Rhodes Colossus!

[Kewlipo]

Hey guys. I just wanted to share my Rhodes Colossus!

Spoiler :

The complete Rhodes Colossus!

Egypt:

Our only non-historical area, Ethiopia:

East Africa:

South Africa:

I also have a fairly large British empire elsewhere.

Anyone else have some interesting colonial achievements? Rhodes Colossus, Portuguese colonies in Japan, etc...?

The Rhodes Colussus, which refers to Cecil Rhodes' Cape to Cairo dream.
