Where do you start your civilization from?
>>214677915mediterranean island looks comfy
>>214677915The Mediterraean or Great Lakes peninsula. The wide-open spaces will be filled with violent nomads
>>214677915obviously the horn of panama, can control most of trade between the northern and southern american sea
>>214677915Baltic and maybe even north sea area, connected to the land yet via a complicated route if counting for the rough terrain and cold in the northern atlantic, thus giving a speed bump against any land invasionsHopefully a bit chilly and with plenty of rain. The other side of the eurasian sea looks interesting, yet despite the chokepoints it seems way more open to any raids
>>214677915The land just next to the northern east coast, seems like there's a few nice natural barriers there.

>>214677915I was forced to adopt multiple civilizations, I do descend from original Europeans
>>214677915Mediterranean peninsula sounds the best, a defensible location from the Atlantic Nomads, with plenty of sea access and a moderate climate for farming n shit
The great la.. islandsyou need something small enough to get a basic civilisation going first without constant raids so it needs to be easily definisble (island) but still close enough to trade with others.the medeterranian may be ok with its peninsulas and choke points but it is too large to subsume into one civilisation early on which will result in constant attacks from other civs
>>214677915Where's the mid-ocean range?
>>214677915I wonder if anyone lives on the Volga and Dnieper islands
>>214677915The Finnish Archipelago looks comfy as fuck
>>214677915thats a high up ocean in greenlandthe med islands must be pretty comfy
Persian Gulf is probably the ideal strategic location
>>214677915panama looks like an intelligent choice
