The Department of Foreign Affairs is endeavoring to revamp our entire Foreign Policy. The first step in this process it to determine how our people feel about the people around us. To this end we are hosting a series of polls where citizens may rate each of our neighbors on a scale of 1-5 (5 is best, 1 is worst).

When tabulated we will have a list of civilizations from Most Prefered Nation to Rogue State. The Department of Foreign Affairs will use this list to help determine what civs get favorable deals for Peace and ROP renegotiations, who to extort and who we will support against who. Other departments could also use this list to determine who to purchase from and who to offer things to.

Please vote in each poll.

Aztecia

Babylon

China

Greece

India

Iroquois

Rome

Zululand

EDIT: These polls have concluded and have been incorporated into the new proposed Foreign Policy.

you should have posted a brief summary of the historic development and future possibilities of the foreign relations to the nations where you placed the polls on. not every citizen is so into our foreign relations he knows exactly which nation we have/have had concerns with.
