Total war: North and south next title?

[Noncommunist]

What about west Africa shortly before colonization? There, you have Islam, Christianity, and Animism all interacting. Similarly to Japan, you have various statelets trying to modernize and assume more power which means they'd be interacting with the various European trade posts in the area. Also, you'd have Liberia as a state which could become independent of the American Colonization Society. And by having it take place in the 1800s, the slave trade is mostly over so one controversial issue wouldn't have to be handled by the game.

Perhaps at the end of the game, Britain, France, and Germany could start their colonization and the player would have to figure out how to survive. Possibly similar to the Mongol/Timurid invasions at the end of the MTW2 except they'd probably have a greater technology edge.
