Civilizations (Age of Empires III)
From Age of Empires
The Civilizations of Age of Empires III do not function the same way as they do in Age of Empires and Age of Empires II. Instead of having a large list of numerous civilizations, the choices are much more limited. In addition, each civilization can be played by only one player.
