Nationality.(this ain't gonna be what you think it is)
What country do you come from, personally? And this is relevant, cause i want to see if people form other languages play Civ aswell as English speakers.

I don't understand why your poll does not include ANY Asian nationalities? I am an American living in the U.S., but I am a big fan of Asian culture and history and I am confident that there are far more Apolytoners from Korea or Japan than Ireland or South Africa. Please consider revising your poll. Thank you.

Well no-one's perfect. Anyway Russia is in Asia. How can i revise my poll? I included Ireland and South Africa as they are obscure English speaking countries. And don't start on the "Irelands not obscure" because i'm sure we all think different things.

Yep, Russians are Asian. They're all mongols!

(Someone might want to inform them of this threads recent ruling as I'm not sure they're aware of it)

Ville :
Go to the control panel.
Click "Edit Profile"
Select your country, in the appropriate field (which is surprisingly named "select your country" )
Save changes.

Voilà ! You have a flag under your name now !

No Finland included? Sheesh, you have never visited off-topic, have you?

btw, there's an Apolyton Location Survey on Apolyton/Community forum, too.

Heh, well, like I said, just look at the Apolyton Location Survey.

GenghisFarb: Russians are Mongols? Is it a joke? ...

Anyway now I understand why the default Civ3 didn't include Mongols separately. In fact they were in as Russians.

But serious: Russia isn't in Asia (just partly). The cities of Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, Sevastopol, Minsk etc. you know from the game are all IN Europe. Russians conquered Syberia and the other asian lands only in the industrial age (no, not 340 AD, it was in the real world )

BTW, my country, Hungary is a major superpower like Uruguay, so i demand to include it in the poll!

Strange... that's exactly what I thought it was...

And I think nobody can say : Russia is in Europe rather than in Asia (or in Asia rather than in Europe) because most great cities are in Europe but the mot territory is in Asia... so...

Russia wants to be European.....but Russia has become 'Asiafied'. This happened about 200 years ago when Russia thaught it would be cool to have a massive Aisan empire.

Russia is still European. it's not like anybody in the Russian-Russian part gives a damn about siberia and the far east, and it's not like anybody there really gives a damn about Moscow.

Russia is european. simple as that.
