Which nation do/would you play as in Civilization V?

Civ III is my favorite, followed by Civ IV. Civ IV has the best game intro ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoLYa6kSDrU


The first scenario I ever played with Civ III was The Roman Empire way back in 2004. But I have played Russia the most, followed by America. Same goes for Civ IV. THe first time I played as Russia in late 2004/early 2005 was the only time I managed to successfully complete the spaceship in Civ III.


Of this list, I would include those as well as the Byzantines. One of my favorite scenarios in the EU series.

So how did a thread about strategy games end up getting into the business of arranged marriages? I thought mods were suppose to keep threads on topic, not do the opposite.

I'm awful at these games and always want to win.. and my bleeding heart liberalness comes in so I'm uncomfortable being overly militaristic even in a game...so I play Babylonia for the easy science victory.

When you play as Russia as much as I do in various games, especially in Paradox Games, where manpower is just another resource to be utilized, the fields are strewn with the victims of my conquests. Most of them, my own people.
