"Medival Great Power" Civilization that hasnt been represented in the game yet

I still wondering what Civ that hasnt been covered or made into aoe 2 so i had a look at the great powers in the Medieval era (See as a guideline: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_medieval_great_powers


Islamic empires in the Mideast and Northern Africa include: 1. The Rashidun, Umayyad, Abbasid, Fatimid, Ayyubid, Mamluk: All these were Arab empires and are covered by the Saracens. 2. The Ghaznavid, Timurid, Ikhanate, Samarid, Tahinid, Ghurid: All covered by the Persians, Turks and Mongols 3. The Seljuk, Rum Sultanate, Giray: All covered by the Turks. 4. The Almohad, Almoravid, Hafsid, Moors etc: All covered by the Berbers

Possibilities: Possibly none.


Sub-saharan empires 1. Malian Empire, Songhai Empire, Ghana Empire, Kingdom of Nri(?): Covered by Malians 2. Ethiopian Empire covered by the Ethiopians. 3. Great Zimbabwe, Swahili city states: Missing, as well as anything for the Bantu people in general. 4. Kanem Empire: Missing as well as anything for the Nilo-Saharan people.

Possibilities: Bantu, Kanem


Pre-columbian America & Oceania 1. Aztecs, Mayans and Incas are all represented by respective civs. 2. the Iroquois or the Mississipians or Polynesians doesnt have any representation in aoe 2 yet

The AoK: Realms mod had the minor Andean civs of Muisca and Chimu (the later covered by the Incas atm imho). I liked the idea behind the Muisca UU which was a high hp, high melee armour, low piercing armour, low attack archer. The unit model is exquisite I must say! The Chimus also had an interesting UU.

Possibilities: Muisca, Iroquois, Mississipians, Polynesia


South-east Asia 1. Srivijaya, Majahapit Empires: Covered by the Malays 2. Khmer Empire : Covered by the Khmer. 3. Kingdoms of Lan Xang, Lan Na, Ayudya. Ayutthaya: The Thais were not included in the RoR DLC for reasons unbeknownst to me so I think their chances are remote. 4. Vietnamese kingdoms: Covered by the Vietnamese 5. Burmese Empire/kingdoms; Covered by the Burmese 6. The Pala Empire, Delhi Sultanate, Bengal Sultanate, Mughal Sultanate: Covered by the Indians civ. 7. Chola, Chalukya, Rashtrakuta Empires: Although Dravidian empires they are supposedly covered by the Indians civ whose wonder is a Dravidian temple atm.

Possibilities: Thai and Dravidian


East Asia 1. The Mongols, Chinese, Koreans, Japanese are all covered by respective civs. 2. Jurchen: Their Jin empire weas administratively Chinese like the population and their warfare much like the Mongols. Perhaps they have been covered by the Chinese and Mongols? 3. Gokturk, Uyghur Khanates: Covered by the Turks and the Huns? 4. Tibetan Empire: Not covered.

Possibilities: Some Central Asian power , Tibetan Empire.


Christian/European Empires/Important Kingdoms 1. Frankish Empire/Burgundy: Covered by the Franks 2. North Sea Empire/Kalmar Union: Covered by the Vikings 3. Holy Roman Empire: Covered by the Teutons 4. Hungarian kingdom: Covered by the Magyars 5. Angevin Empire/Kingdom of England: Covered by the Britons 6. Genoa, Venice, Sicily: Covered by the Italians. Perhaps the Papal states are covered here too. 7. Kingdoms of Aragon and Castile: Covered by the Spanish 8. Any Gothic kingdom: Covered by the Goths 9. Serbian empire, Kiev Rus, Grand Duchy of Moscow: Covered by the Slavs 10. Hunnic Empire: Covered by the Huns 11. Portuguese Kingdom: Covered by the Portuguese 12. Celtic tribes: Covered by the Celts 13. Byzantine Empire: Covered by the Byzantines. 14. Crusader Kingdoms/Templars/Papal States: Covered by the Italians and the Teutons? 15. Bulgarian empire, Chazar Empire, Cuman Empire: Covered by the Turks, Huns and Slavs perhaps? 16. Poland-Lithuania: Not covered.

Smaller kingdoms not covered: Georgia, Armenia, Wallachia. These three could be added with a unique architecture that is also shared by the Byzantines as an orthodox civ architecture.

Requested civs outside the AoE era: Dutch, Swiss. Both were part of the Frankish empire or the Holy Roman Empire or just minor powers.

Possibilities: Lithuania/Balts, Crusader states-Papal States , Georgia , Armenia , Bulgars , Wallachians . The last four could be an 'Orthodox' DLC .


Generally the most possible civs would be: 1) Lithuanians/Balts 2) Tibetans 3) Bantu

Remote: Georgians, Armenians, Wallachians, Papal States/Crusaders/Templars, Chola/Dravidians, another Turkic central asian tribe/Bulgarians, Thai, Muisca, Kanem.

We have some possibilities for UU such as a camel and elephant hand canoneer, or an archer with high melee armour and low piercing armour, or a melee cavarly with ranged attack, and boni concerning melee armor and dmg, the stable (cheaper techs), the monastery (lower cost for priests, priests with armour, priest speed), eagle warriors (cheaper EW and free upgrades), the market (cheaper techs, trade carts with armour), regainning resources from lost units (like madrasah) etc.

Some people argue that there is a psychological barrier of 18 new civs from dlcs as AoC had 18 civs from Ensemble Studios. Others would say that we need a big patch that solves all the bugs, UI, and multiplayer issues.
