Make-A-Civ!
Yes, make a civ, but there are some rules:

1) NO ALIENS!
2) The idea must be taken from a book, play, or movie.

I think it will be easy to tell where mine came from...

Civ: The Animals
Ruler: Napoleon
Capital: Animal Farm
Other Cities: Pinchfield, Foxwood
Great Leaders: Snowball, Boxer, Benjamin
UU: Secret Attack Dogs (43-0-4): Everyone's afraid of big, slobbering dogs.

Let's see how soon this turns into a disaster...

Nope. Oceania included the Americas, Australia, Britain and some scattered possessions.

Eurasia was Europe, Russian Asia and Central Asia

Eastasia was...Eastasia.

Africa was hotly contested.
