ah yes the twelve labors of Hercules I remember that famous tale, that time he killed the hydra, that time he wrestled a lion to death, that time he build a space port for the Aztecs, oh and that time he rescued a man from having his liver eaten! truly a classic.
Hercules, the strongest demi-god around, he beat up lions, killed hydras, captured legendary horses, and constructed advanced space-age technology centers in a time when barbarians were still threatening people with rocks attached to spears.
Honestly, this is just kind of normal for Babylon in Civ VI, even without the 1-turn tech tree exploit. The only downside is that the barbarian tech tends to stay up with the fastest player. Which is kind of amusing when I'm watching barbarian Modern ATs attacking my enemies who are still in the Medieval Era. As a side note, I have definitely discovered Nuclear Fusion from a tribal village when playing with Babylon.
Spain was populated by a majority celtic population. Then came the romans and essentially "latinized" the peninsula. Then when the Western Roman Empire was collapsing the visigoths invaded and populated Spain forming the Visigothic kingdom. The visigoths are a north germanic people originating mainly from Sweden.
This reminds me of when I used to give myself Navy SEALS right on turn 1 back in Civ 4 and pretended they were time traveler's from the future sent back to eradicate every non American civilization in existence. Good Times!
