Ok this is starting to get confusing... I think the structure has to be re-thought here. We have to look at eras, and geography. We have to look at the defining civs throughout time in their respective regions. And the 65 (why 65? 64 is a much better number, as it can be divided easily etc) should be broken up into regions and eras..
For example.. Europe should be given the largest share.. hypothetically, say, a third of the spots. And then a bulk of spots to Asia & the Middle East, I would say about an equal amount for each.. then Noth/South America, less that Asia & Middle East.. but equal to each other.. then finally a few (and i mean a few) spots to Africa, Oceania (& the Pacific).
So first we decide on what regions get what share... then we can have an easier task of allocating the 'X' spots for Europe... then do the 'X' spots for Middle East, etc etc.

well, there is no limit i think, i'm still at 48 civ for superciv mod and I don't see any reason why i couldn't continue....
just ask the OP
I did not see Byzantines in that(most resent) list...
Need I remind you that it covered north africa, egypt, persia, most of italy, the balkins, and turkey at its hight?
Give it Constantinope(not Istanbul) as its starting city and give it Super Uber walls as its UU (ok, maybe not)
What limits the game to only 65 civs? some code or something? why cant we do 100 civs or 1000 civs? that would solve the problem of fitting all of the smaller ones (Byzantine does not fall into that catogory)
{edit} I like the Holy Roman Empire too it included Germany, italy, poland(slavs), astria(spelled wrong) some of france and the balkins... I don't see it as Germany Because they were a "republic" of many fuedal kings with a elected leader.
As a German I agree, in a regular civ game you do not need the Holy Roman Empire (of course in a middle ages mod or the like it's great - in fact I started it as a civ in a German forum, but nobody seemed to be interessted). You can play four leaders of nations that are suceeders to the Empire.Poseidon_55 said:Isn't the holy roman empire a combination of french and german tribes. So technicly they arnt their own civ
So the swiss Habsburger family is not important you say? Of course that's just one example. If you can read German or enjoy reading translated texts go to wikipedia.de, search for Schweiz and read the chapter Geschichte (english: history).AlCosta15 said:Switzerland hasn't done much again. If you read up on those native civs, you'll find them quite interesting.
wow. 3 great people. no notable culture. no notable national achievements. can i be swiss?JDexter said:So the swiss Habsburger family is not important you say? Of course that's just one example.

Or to name someone else: Zwingli was one of the great reformists of the catholic church. Or what about Henri Dunant who founded the Red Cross?
Switzerland split from the Holy Roman Empire and hasn't changed much since then. That's quite a long time for you to call unimportant.
