Some of the civilizations to play as are rather contradictory, such as the Huns and Mongolians. Aren't they the same thing?

Take it up with tiki... he wanted more than 10 players in a game, so he got tasked with naming and giving them colours.

Krang came up with Romans and Byzantines.

I am responsible for the following names:
Aztecs
Huns (from Asiatic)
Minoans
Persians
Phoenicians
Saxons

I defend the name of the Huns with Mongolians. (The "Huns" used to be named the "Asiatic"...more a collection of tribes than any specific civilisation.) Compare settlement maps:

Minoans and Greeks... I can almost understand. However, Ancient Greece was a very separated collection of culture. I am rather sure that the implication of "Greeks" leads to Athenian culture.
