Civ 5 GMR 16 Reject Earth Edition

[Zevox]

I am indifferent to theme but I would like to play.

Just as a heads up, I believe the Earth map automatically disables Start Bias, so bear that in mind.

Hm, an Earth map with those eight nations...

Europe: France, Netherlands, Venice.
Africa: Carthage (but north Africa, so close enough to potentially come into conflict over territory with the European nations, particularly France).
Asia: Japan, Ottomans - but opposite sides of the continent.
Americas: Iroquois, Polynesia.

Yeah, while I haven't seen exactly what Civ 5's version of the map looks like or how big it is, I think the European nations would be at something of a disadvantage there, having to fight over their limited territory while the other nations have whole continents practically to themselves.
