Default Re: Possible missing nations in Dom III?

3. A nation based on Korea: Given that there are three nations based on Scandinavia, it is difficult to see how there is not even one nation based on Korea. Korea was a more important player than Japan in Far Eastern history until really the Meiji reforms in the 1800s, and it has probably a richer historical and cultural tradition than Japan (though probably not as much as the Japan-inferiority-complex-ridden Koreans claim). Other games that endeavor to include the major global civilizations of the world (e.g. the Civ series) almost always have Korea represented, and there is no reason that Dom III shouldn't.


Reminder:

The famous CCG Magic: The Gathering (owned by Wizards of the Coast WOTC that is also the owner of Dungeons & Dragons) released it's first Far Eastern expansion PORTAL: THREE KINGDOMS(http://www.wizards.com/magic/p3k/p3k_edition.asp) at July. 6. 1999 that's based on "T'ien C'hi" history.

The 2nd MTG expansion of Far Eastern known as CHAMPIONS OF KAMIGAWA(http://www.wizards.com/magic/display...page=1&lang=en) released at Auguest. 2004, which described a war between Human and Spirits--or, people and oni.

And shall I say that, the very ARABIAN NIGHTS is the first expansion of MTG released December 1993....

No Korea block yet.

Edit:
BTW, there's no Korea civilization in CIV3 till its first expansion.
