That was great, I'd definitely like to see even more Age of Civilisations 2 videos! Maybe you could reform the Serbian empire next time? Or Hungarian Kingdom?
If you really want to include everything that was ever Greek, you'd have to add parts of the Krim, southern France, southern Italian mainland and eastern Sicily to this as well, or is this supposed to be Alexanders conquest? If so I think it is a little much in some places.
@@geodim3904 Byzantium never even came close to Bactria/Afghanistan, or even most of Persia really, but they too at times extended into at least southern Italy, even Tunesia & parts of Spain were for a time back in "Roman" hands under Justinian. Either way, a little too much to the south, east and north east, but too little to the west. Also it states "Ancient Greece". It was only called Byzantium with the fall of Western Rome, which was the exact moment the ancient age ended and the medieval one began.

The Salish, aka Coastal Salish, are the indigenous peoples of coastal Washington State, up into coastal BC a little bit, and (iirc) down into coastal Oregon a little bit. They're all related by language-family and general cultural practices, though there are several distinct tribe with their own unique differences.
