What factors do you consider when advocating for a particular civ to be included in the game? For example, do you advocate for a new civ because of 1) how historically influential or powerful they were, 2) how long they were in power for, 3) how much territory they occupied at their high of power, or 4) because they effectively conquered others, or 5) they effectively resisted being conquered, 6) that they had mighty warriors, 7) they discovered much scientifically, and they benefited humanity in a significant way, 8) they were culturally unique, they represent a region that is unrepresented, or 9) their nation is important to you for patriotic reasons, 10) they are a modern power, or 11) you personally just like the civ, or 12) that they will fill a niche and bring something fresh to the game, such as new mechanics, or a completely different strategy, or 13) is your choice a political statement, 14) for more awareness for a little-known about civ, or 15) because they are well known about to the point that they are iconic, or 16) even because it would make a stance against real world injustice/racism to include them, 17) wanting a particular leader in the game, or 18) some other reason?
