Birth of Civilization (Map Game)

The first civilizations are only just beginning. Nearly nothing yet has a name in any language, from the continents to the flowers growing upon them. The year is 3300 BCE, and no great empires have yet risen, no colonists have sailed across the seas from Europe to the Americas and Oceania, no-one yet knows of the soft silks of China, the glorious Roman Republic or the Greek Philosophers such as Plato or Aristotle, and now, they might never be born.

This is the premise of the Birth of Civilization Map Game; to start before any civilizations had been founded and reshape the course of Humanity's history since the beginning of our most recent several thousand years.

The Rules & Important Information

 * 1) The game begins the year 3300 BCE, and the turns will begin being very long periods of time in order to allow for events to proceed at an acceptable rate, however as the year approaches the modern day, the turns will progressively become smaller periods of time in order to allow for more exacting actions to be taken. i.e. invading Poland as Germany at the beginning would take a very long time, however in 1939, it would most likely take very little time.
 * 2) Civilizations do not have to follow historical lines, thus players can either create their own or play historical ones such as the Chinese, Egyptians or Babylonians.
 * 3) Civilizations may be started by new players from the beginning of the game until 1 CE.
 * 4) Civilizations will have an easier time starting and surviving at logical areas like river valleys (i.e. China, Egypt), peninsulas/islands (Greece, Italy), or near other civilizations (Assyria, Nubia).
 * 5) Players have one free switch to another nation every 20 turns. You can also switch if your nation has been forcefully vassalized or conquered.
 * 6) The map will be based off of the Europa Universalis IV province map for the time being, however this may change.
 * 7) There will be more, but as of now the game is still being designed. However, feel free to sign up for it nonetheless.

Nations
Write down your civilization and signature below the heading of the continent upon which it is located, and preferably either send a message to me (Ark) or use the talk page to inform the staff of where it is to be placed upon the map. Or simply create a page for your civilization, cut out the portion of the map it's located in and color it's starting province yourself.
