    I think it's funny Canada gets so many tundra resource bonuses, while the actual population of Canada is crowded around the warm southern border, almost entirely avoiding any real tundra regions. They basically have culture bonuses for unworked tundra irl lol

      The Canadian tundra in real life is just one massive resource tile, no one actually wants to live in an ice desert.
      The warmth of the southern border regions is a bit overstated, the winter months are still miserable outside of the lower mainland of BC. The snow pile in my backyard gets so tall that if I fall into it I might suffocate.

      I played Civ V when I was like 15 and got civ VI like at 16 and switched to it been playing Civ VI off and on until now I am 23.
      Recently tried Civ V again after playing Civ VI for years and I couldn't believe how different V was from VI I remembered it being more similar but I guess I warped my memory. Civ VI has so many more systems going on than V it felt like they were made from different companies. I quickly got bored of V because of how little was going on compared to VI.

    My first guess is that canada's ability means that you get what amounts to free turns due to the ability, pure raw production you do not have to spend on units since the ability stops all surprise wars and thus always giving you a warning sign if war is about to come, the rest is just that hockey gives a heck ton of culture for a single tile and that you benefit from land other people would be less incentivised to contest.

      The standard settings for multiplayer Free-for-all Civ 6 games in CPL are as follows:
      10 players, large map. (more tundra than smaller map sizes)
      Map type is Pangea, Rich Highlands, 7 Seas, or Lakes, depending on the game.
      World age is set to "new" (this results in more hills)
      Resources and strategic resources are both set to abundant (this is done to reduce variance and speed up games so they can be completed in one sitting easier)
      Ridges definition is set to "classic" (this adds more gaps to mountain ranges, making it far less likely that they box you in)
      If you're spawning with barely any tundra, odds are your map size is too small or you're not playing one of the four aforementioned map types.
      If you're squeezed by mountains really hard, odds are you're playing with "standard" ridges definition instead of "classic."
      The mod "Better Balanced Starts" is also typically used, which guarantees you'll have some tiles with decent yields around your starting location.
      Try changing your settings to match these to better simulate the average multiplayer Civ lobby, you should have better luck.

      The balance mods used in competitive Civ 6 (BBG and BBM) guarantee that Canada will always spawn in tundra on any map type where tundra exists. I believe it will literally reroll the map seed if it can't find a spot to put Canada. These mods also guarantee that naval civs will always spawn on coast, Mali will always spawn next to desert, Egypt will always spawn with floodplains, etc.

      Multiplayer civ is typically played with the Better Balanced Game mod (I mention this at the start of the video), which changes the governors quite significantly.

    What people don't understand is, once war is on, Canada breaks out the Geneva Checklist. We're not about to let anyone take our High Score. We may not have the military equipment, but we have Syrup Starved Canucks with cans of Tactical Beans. Don't worry, the concussive wave and shrapnel are normal.

    • @HersonCiv
      @HersonCiv  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      The Better Balanced Game mod reworks the Work Ethic religious belief. Now, it merely causes shrines and temples to grant production equal to their innate faith yields, rather than causing holy sites to grant production equal to their adjacency. On top of that, the golden age dedication for Pen Brush & Voice was buffed while Monumentality was nerfed. As a result, leaning into religious play as Canada is pretty situational w/ the mod (and consequently in competitive multiplayer) compared to in the base game.

      Having lived in the States for 4.5 years, there is a significant difference. A lot of it is intangible but there is a large difference. I remember an American saying Canada and America were basically alike and I was like "No, no they're not."
      It's like suggesting England and Ireland are alike. Speaking a similar dialect and watching a lot of the same tv does not make you alike.

      I think you mean Alberta and they've always been weird. ;) In Canada, Alberta is known as the Texas of Canada. There are several similarities:
      -both have liberal strongholds in the larger cities
      -both have large amounts of oil
      -both are bastions of Christian conservatism
      -they're also both pretty flat (especially, Southern Alberta)
      -ranching is a dominant industry in both locations
      -it's one of the few places you'll find cowboy hats unironically throughout the province.
      However, frankly, Quebec doesn't have much of a leg to stand on in the "not weird" category as they are pretty weird too.
      -French language laws
      -Religious iconography laws
      -electing separatists as the official opposition
      -trying twice to actually separate even though they don't have legal standing to do it and it would be an economic catastrophe for them.

    Getting real tired of every time IRL Canada is referenced as polite some galaxy brain feels the need to add, "but what about the crimes against Indigenous people?!"
    Firstly, the actions of our government in the 19th century don't have ANY bearing on the culture of today. It's literally irrelevant. Secondly, our government is currently so embroiled in this colonial guilt they're about to become the first ever government to actually hand over terriortory, power, and the treasury just because they feel bad. Literally we're being guilt-tripped into dissolving the state with no obligation to do so. Absurd. Thirdly, even our supreme court ruled that no treaty obligation has been violated. Their judgements appeal to the spirit of the Robinson treaty because the letter of the law has been followed. And the Indigenous signed it. End of story. The court has to appeal to the assumed spirit of the treaty to say something should be changed, since we haven't technically violated anything. Our "crimes" are nothing more than showing up, drawing up some favourable contracts, then following them. Our "criminal" colonization was just about the nicest geopolicial move in the history of the world.

I simply built universities in most of my large cities and ran policy cards that increase science, such as Rationalism and Natural Philosophy.
