I am hoping to see at least some representation for southern africa at launch.
The Zulu has been around in Civ for a long time, or perhaps the full nation of South Africa for a broader scope.
The Xoi-San has been around for as long as it gets, in real world terms.
Other options that could potentially be considered are:
Xhosa, Pedi, Tswana, Sotho, Tsonga, Swazi, Venda, Ndebele, Shona, etc.
Or a more general Nguni civ.
The cape colony used to be a power by itself, and the 'Boer' republics have noteworthy history with the British Empire, etc.
Finding unique elements won't be difficult since this region has several natural wonders, the greatest mineral wealth on earth, a deep anthropological history, many word heritage sites, has natural megadiversity, significant cultural history, many wars and battles, political significance and more.
It would feel like something is missing (at least to me), should there be nothing along those lines.
