Hi Merlin, thanks for the hint, but honestly it does not seem to be a very serious statement by mr peterson, cause for example "esperanto" is an artificial language and not a civ or nation, the Yanomamis are a small Indian tribe in Venezuela, technically on a stone-age level, well and the martians would have a long way to join the battle (no wonder that you wrote "most of the civs are unknown"). That doesn't leave us much smarter concerning the future expansion. But it's worth a smile or two.
Guess I paid now. P.S.: By the way, this french page has a pretty glamourous design, that alone is worth a visit.
