That's interesting.
Empire, which was a military-only precursor to Civ, had navigable rivers. IIRC, one of the map choices was predominantly land, but with lots of rivers. This made naval strategies key.
This kind of lagoon map does the same thing. Obviously archipelago does too, but I don't like small landmasses.
