Iroquois. Total population probably <250 000, virtually no cities, small area, minimal architecture.

Got spare money?

I think the Iroquois do stand a chance in that they were going for thousands of years, although admittedly they never really did anything that much.
The Zulu I would have thought would be low middle, not bottom, they did survive right up to the early 20th century, unless I'm mistaken (which I probably am, feel free to correct me)
I would have thought the Aztecs could be quite low but again, not bottom.

After all that ranting, I'd probably have to go with either the Iroquois or the Zulu although I would be surprised if it really was the Zulu.

Come ON! It's gotta be the Babylonians. There were a few periods they had some territory, but not much and not for long. They were conquered often. There weren't that many cultural improvements in their cities (not many pre-req techs discovered) and the only wonder they had is the Hanging Gardens. They had it for, oh, 150 years (?) before being conquered by Persia in 539BC. Bam. No more history.

My country had embargo form 91-95 and then 97-2000

And you know what?
We palyed all games available at Amrerica.

And for much cheaper price.

Now, these days are over.
After-emargo was lifted, anti-piracy laws made their place.

Yes it had (old one).

This reffers to Serbia & Montenegro (new one).

Maybe we chage the name in future.

Iroquois definitely. Not around for that long (not as the confederacy anyway), absolutely no achievements really. Zulus are fairly close behind, and Aztecs a little further off (at least they had cities). The Babylonians might have been conquered a long time ago, and several times, but at least they managed to build wonders and 'culture', so they're a no. Persians conquered a large empire and were around for a while and they build a 'Forbidden Palace'. India is still around now and with huge population etc. so it couldn't be them.

The Zulus had cities. Isandlwana had a population of ~30 000.

Iraq is in the game. It's called Babylon. Not quite the same, but close.

May be because they were conquered by the Persians. This was why I said, that it's not quite the same, all there is a bit messed. Romans also aren't quite the predecessors of today's Italians, but Italians are Romans+Langobards mixed.
