Enough out of you. TW was also being sarcastic, in case you hadn't realised. You obviously missed it, and you've been insulting him ever since, often making a fool of yourself. You tell him that he missed the "irony", but as a matter of fact, he was one level up on you and then you call him stupid for that. You've managed to annoy a lot of people in your short time here. I agreee that TW's comment about this thread was over the top, but now you're the one who's getting on my nerves.

Ahem? Off-topic?
Reopening the can of worms that is the American civilisation, I agree entirely that it is now a distinct and significant culture. However, in the context of the game, we should regard the US of A, or Canada for that matter, as colonies of England/Britain which have separated from their originators.
You could make the same case for Mexico, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, whatever. The differentiating factor for the USA is that it proved to be remarkably successful at colonising North America and establishing itself as the second continental superpower (after Russia).
It's always struck me as ridiculous that the "American" tribe starts out somewhere in North America as if the Mayflower got started 5-6 millenia early.

yep, americans should be removed, the only way they should be exist is if the English civ gets to big and cracks into 2. and depending on what areas the English has settled, the new Civ should either be Americans, Australians, or South Africa.
I like geograhpical and historical accuracy.

Sorry to bring it back to the topic guys , but I have a question. Someone earlier said Firaxis mentioning nationalism and genocide. Could you provide a link? I can't find it on their site. Thanks.

if america is an "accident" the restof the world must have been so fawked up it only got better.
like the exploit in 'Coaster Tycoon.
it really wasn't an accident IMHO.
i mean, England tried to control an area at least 5x it's size.
i saw an interesting fact in a BMW commercial...
"Germany is Half the size of Wisconsin".
and to think they almost had us beat in ww2.
lucky thing hitler got paranoid and ignored most of his generals eh?

America an accident what a joke. America kicked the crap out of the English with nothing. We had nothing for a military but we still prevailed in the war. There are so many reasons why America is the best nation in the world. I'm not being nationalistic, either, it's just the facts.

Uh huh...You know that the Spanish and the French were allied with you against the British, right? I'm not saying it would necessarily have gone differently without 'em, but with 'em the British lost control of the seas for the first time since the 16th century.

what i don't really get is how someone can be proud over a country built on death, theft and exploitation. American's real inhabitants are the indian tribes. The others are just europeans gine abroad, TW´s post is embarrassing.

You guys are so right, America is a joke. I mean all the other countries just making fun of America, they're saying "Look at that stupid world superpower."
The British also had the help of the Germans.
