So i was trying to think of the civilizations that some of the city states are based on and I wanted some input as i think it helps to visualize it.  I pulled this from the wiki.

Balic is inspired with Ancient Greece.

Draj inspired by the Aztecs.

Gulg inspired by the jungles of Africa.

Nibenay inspired by Angkor, capital of the Khmer Empire.

Raam is inspiration seems to be the Mughal Empire of India with a dash of Pharaonic Egypt.

Tyr is inpsired by Tyre,

Urik is inspired by Babylon and Uruk.

Any other thoughts or is this a pretty good evaluation of it.
