I'm pretty sure Venice would qualify as a Dark Horse. Not too many people are expecting it either.I chose other. I do not want a Dark Horse. I would rather Venice (as an unexpected, yet valid, IMO, inclusion).

I have read a few of these threads and I am also surprised by no one mentioning Cuba. Perhaps Scotland, they are a perfect example of conflict of culture (with England), but there are already two Civs from the 'not so Great Britain'. Maybe Aborigines.
Other than that, hmm. It feels like the game is lacking some Siberian tribes, from before Russia. I honestly do not know if there were any interesting ones, but it is a giant space filled only by Catherine while the Near East is stuffed with nations, which succeed another nation right in the exact same spot.
Yeah... definitely Hungary!!!
I was talking about the size. Power they had insane, size of the island is not insane as much..."Great" is a measurement of size.
Sovereignty has nothing to do with it, I think. If that would be the case then half of the civs we have now, would not be included. Every nation at some point lost and / or regained its independence. I think it just has to be either distinctive or have had influence on history.I think Hungary would be a worthy inclusion and if it were included would be a Dark Horse most certainly, but the time to add it has since passed. Especially now that we have Poland. It'd be exceptionally odd to have two sovereigns of Hungary in the game as well, what with Austria.

If I have to choose one and only one (considering that Poland finally got in)... without any doubt whatsoever - Hungary. They had MASSIVE influence on Europe. Most of the military ideas like Hussars come from them. Their folklore flooded Slavic countries and huge part of western European folklore is based upon their's. I am mega-surprised that they are not yet in the game. Maybe they will be in since this expansion focuses on culture. I think in terms of cultural influence Hungary could be right after Italy. Just imagine playing as Vlad the Impaler. Besides black fits them well...
