[Freeciv-Dev] (PR#5252) Wishlist: Defined civil war nations

["Morgan Jones" <morgan.jones@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It would be great if there was an optional entry in the nation rulesets that 
listed a number of other nations that the game would choose from (either in 
order or randomly, not sure which is better) for a new AI player in the event 
of civil war.

For example:

In Spanish ruleset:

   civilwar_nations = "Mexican", "Chilean", etc.


In English ruleset:

   civilwar_nations = "American", "Australian", "New Zealand", etc.


I realize that many of these nations were not created as a result of civil war, 
but it would add some historical consistency to the game.  Having the Aztecs 
breaking away from the Japanese is sort of odd.

Of course if civilwar_nations is empty or all the entries are already in the 
game then it could revert back to current random method.

Any thoughts?
