Besides the Inuit, what are some other tribes native to Canada?
Wikipedia has a pretty comprehensive list.

Pretty Awesome.[xpost from BNW section]
In Southeast Asia, Khmer and Vietnam are the two most popular civs and thus stand the best chance to make it in Civ. But a few people have concerns about Khmer overlapping with Siam while others have concerns about Vietnam not holding a candle to Khmer.
There is one Southeast Asian powerhouse with zero controversy. Instead of lecturing with history, I'll let the photos speak for itself.
Behold, the mighty PAGAN KINGDOM (Burma/Myanmar), one of the great giants to have walked the lands of mainland Asia:

The legendary Anawrahta, leader of the Pagan

Map of their geography. As you can see, they dominated in a hotly-contested region:

Does everyone agree that if they included the Timurids... Timur would be the leader?
And the same with Nubia and Tiye.
I say either include Pagan/Burma or Vietnam with Khmer. I'm still not sold entirely on Khmer though...

Yeah. Nubia is an obvious choice of a civ with a good female leader, and the Timurids existed because of Timur. Does everyone agree that a Vietnam would have one (or both) of the Trung sisters? Lastly, who would lead Kongo?
Images are not showing up... Hmm....Here's some representation of Ukraine and how awesome it could be In Civ V,
Just let me show you some pictures.
The Mountains.

The Architecture.

And who wouldn't want to have some classic Civ V bad diplomacy with this guy?

Oh.. and this is pretty cool.

I'm just sayin'... Ukraine is awesome. One page back I listed some possible game stats for them.
Khmer/Vietnam I would like one of these two, but it's difficult to say which is more likely. Vietnam has a distinctive iconicness about it, but I'm not sure how sensitive to this Americans would be, not being an American myself. If this were not a problem, I could see Vietnam as the more likely choice and I could see this civ making use of Vietnam's well-known guerrilla capabilities - not to mention the possibility for a female ruler; and two at once at that. However, I'm not sure a general American audience could get past the idea of modern Vietnam, in the same way people cannot get past modern Israel, and so the Khmer would be a safer inclusion. The Khmer, of course, stand on their own as well - having been in the series before is always a strong argument in favour, but someone such as seancolorado could make a stronger case for them than I.
Nepal: I don't often think of Nepal, but when I do it makes me wish it were in the game. The religious civs in the game are very underwhelming and the original intent of Firaxis with the Pueblo indicate a desire to make use of the otherwise useless mountains. Both of these things Nepal can resolve. Nepal also has the potential for well recognised - at least amongst British audiences - UU - the Gurkha. Simply put, Nepal's strong religious and mountainous bias could provide that which is left wanting by the inability for Firaxis to include Tibet.
Kongo Simply put, people are clamouring for Kongo over here. I haven't a strong desire for any other civ than what I've listed, so I'm willing to concede to the vocality of the civfanatics who desire Kongo.
Honestly? Khmer and Vietnam have equally strong cases.
Yeah. If there was another expansion with the 9 new civs then sure... I could see them being In there.This is why I deferred to you for presenting a stronger argument and also why I said I didn't know which was more likely.
Both could be in, but not if there was absolutely only 7 spots left (for a round 50), which is the way I see it.
