That pic makes London look all futuristic and post-apocalyptic, Mako.

Stereotypical? I know what you mean anyway. Yeah, I think Poland could become one of those places that people always want to visit, dunno when though.

Last time I checked Brussels in Belgium was the capital of the EU, what with the parliament and number commissions.

Nevermind. Yeah, but polygons are 3D aren't they? I mean, it's not 2D in the sense of simply having bitmaps for the buildings or whatever.

It just has a fixed isometric viewpoint. I believe there are mods out there that let you change the camera position. aleking: Very nice work! 10/10! You must have tons of patience!

Mmmm, this thread is a bit silly. For one thing, there will never be one capital of the world. We're all too proud to let that happen. I recommend that we have three capitals: New York City, London and Tokyo. They are after all the most 'powerful' cities on the planet (Sometimes called the three command centres of the world economy) (You could argue for Paris as well, but I don't think it matches London on all fronts, for example, more dollars and euros are traded in London everyday than in any other place on earth). And really, a stock market crash in any of those cities would affect the world on a massive scale. Those three cities really form a chain across the world, linking North America to Europe to Asia, and from them going to the smaller cities of the world. As for the EU vs USA thing. That's also very silly. For one thing, the USA is only a country and the EU is many countries. HOWEVER, if the member states stop arguing and swallow their pride and get on the road to a proper constitution and become one sovereign nation (Probably centuries away), it would become the most powerful 'state' on Earth. The reason for the EU still not pulling ahead of the USA in economic terms is because the EU is still growing and the eastern states have ALOT of work to do before they reach the economic level of the western members. Alot of those states are barely out of the cold war, you have to remember. If they did reach the same level of economic development as the western nations however, there is no doubt that the EU's economic output would dwarf the USAs, Chinas, Indias in terms of GDP, PPP, etc. There are many books on the dreamt of European SUPERSTATE (Or Hyperpower), I haven't read any of them though. And this post really isn't meant as a 'HAHA MY COUNTRY IS BETTER THAN YOURS I WIN SOMEHOW BECAUSE I WAS BORN HERE' sort of thing. Question: That list of largest metro areas isn't really well clued up on London, is it? Why doesn't it count the London Metropolitan Area? It does with NYC and others, so why limit London to Greater London? It'd be ranked 9th if it did, at 13.945mil.

szarkoz: I really like that. 10/10. As Realistic as you can get with SC4. Nice job. After learning about how to use the mods (BATs, lots, and stuff), I made my first real attempt at a downtown area. Be brutal. I've ran out space on the map now though.

So, how do you feel about Toronto?

Well, if you want to believe in the UNs ridiculous definition of multiculturalism, go ahead. -

Haljackey, that isn't multiculturalism. Having lots of people from outside the city belonging to one or two cultures isn't multicultural. I explained myself above, and London is the most multicultural, as it has the most cultures. Maybe not the most people belonging to a different culture (or two), but the most cultures, and that's what multiculturalism means.
