    EUROPE

    22 is Bavaria! The light blue tells you so…even without the checks

    Saxony was in union with Poland-Lithuania by the map…not sure when it actually happened but obviously they start that way in the game.


    INDIA

    6 same as 3?

    North America


    8 Caddo alliance…no one else could be there, but the capital would be Nacogdoches. It makes me wonder where the more powerful tribes are, like the Choctaw ,Chickasaw& Creek! They were too strong and too important to leave out! But there my be subtle shades in 2

    5 looks too far north to be the Sioux, but on one map I saw their capital in Black Hills.

    3 Iroquois territory. Remember there are five tribes.

    For India six looks the same as 3 but zoomed in they appear to be different colours.

    Thanks for all the help guys! It will be interesting to see how accurate these guesses are when the game os released.

    Are there no better maps of North America?

    Are we to believe that CA has included some of the unimportant Native Factions and included some that make practically no difference in history?

    Are we going to have the Sioux and Apache in 1700 when they had no impact and leave out the Shawnee and Miami who basically held up western expansion for almost 50 years?
    What are we to make of it?

    And I am going to be particularly ticked off if the Choctaw are not in here. They served as scouts for Washington and later for Wayne. One of their Chiefs was commissioned a Brigadier General in the American army! What gives?
