Sid Meier’s Civilization
The Sid Meier’s Civilization Series: My Mild Obsession
Update: As the entire world of Civvers already knows, Civ 7 is finally coming out (February 2025). As of this writing, Hawaii (the kingdom-turned-US-state) was just confirmed as a Civ 7 civilization; shouldn’t Texas, that other country-turned-state, be incorporated into the game as well? And make Stephen F. Austin and Sam Houston options as Civ 7 leaders!
Fair Use
For now, note that I’m using Civ 6 as a fun way of expanding and improving my German (at least that’s what I tell myself). And yes, I currently appear as the leader of the Midwest Union in the Red World Mod of the Hearts of Iron IV video game.
Finally, as a sidenote, that’s indeed my own photo above of the feet of Ramesses II (Ozymandias), a set of archaeological remains near Luxor in southern Egypt often (erroneously) cited as the inspiration for Shelley’s famous poem.
