My first Dom:PPP nation was Arco
My first Dom2 nation was Ulm (standard)
My first Dom3 nation was Bandar Log EA in a press preview version (2.79) that did not have all nation finished.

In both Dom II and Dom III the first nation I played was standard Ulm (MA). Just to get my feet wet I like the more military less magic strategy. I also began both games with an immoble pretender (Statue in Dom II, forget already what I used in III).

Dom 3 demo - Agartha, full game I really like MA Man, tower of avalon. This is probably because I have developed a really good strategy with them.

Dom-I - Atlantis, I remember playing the demo for many months befor I've ordered and how much, oh how much I wanted to recruit their best mages and units.

Dom-II - Pythium, I like their Byzantine flavor and their astral royalty.

Dom-III - Pythium, I think it wasn't changed at all but I like it no less. I'm a bit disappointed that they don't have an early and late ages. I am forced to change my strats of playing them due to the old age mechanism, but its actually not that bad.

Dom-I, Ermor.... for like, the first 9 games

Dom-III, Abysia EA. My first time playing abysia since Dom-I. I saw the demonbred assassin and the weird lava-warrior replacment and panic ensued, "What have they done to my abysia?! Noooo!" then I started a middle age game and all the oldies were back .

Besides Atlantis in the demo, my first completed game (which I finished yesterday) was EE Ulm. They are pretty cool, though the lack of good priests threw me off a bit, and the C'tis dominion spread like wildfire.

I can understand why Pythium doesn't have an early age, as they are a splinter from Ermor, but I don't see why they couldn't have a late age version. Maybe with a middle eastern/Turkish flair, since historically the Byzantine Empire was conquered by the Turks. The units wouldn't really be legion troops, but it would be a cool extension of the historical theme, and would introduce a culture to the game that I don't think it in it at present. The whole serpent angle can be kept in for consistency.
