The scoring system as it stands is terrible. It rewards civilisation size and nothing else. The score should be combination of everything - size, proportion of happy to unhappy citizens, technological status, wealth, diplomatic status, culture - in other words, all the things you try to play for in the game. Size should be one of these things, but only one element among others. A large, bad civilisation should not invariably get a higher score than a small, good one, but that is how it is at the moment.

[Trifna] I don't believe it's known where Plotinus came from originally, but he was educated in Alexandria and taught in Rome. Both of these places were part of the Roman Empire in the third century, when he lived, but of course he spoke Greek (and wrote it very badly), and his name was Greek (although the "us" ending is a Latinisation). Culturally, Plotinus was Greek, and spent his time discussing texts by Plato. The cultural divide between Greek and Roman was still there despite the unity of the Empire, and it would later blossom into the divided Empire of Latin-speaking West and Greek-speaking East which we know from the Fall of Rome Conquest.
