There is often little space between the starting locations of European civilizations. India spawns next to Mount Everest, which allows them to get an early Pantheon and quickly spread their religion. The start position of the Māori allows them to potentially colonize all of the Americas without resistance, as there are many European civilizations compared to American ones.Īrabia starts right at the Suez, allowing them to quickly earn the Inspiration for Foreign Trade and get into quick contact with other civilizations, while also locking off Africa until other civs discover Shipbuilding. They also start near the Galápagos Islands, which provide massive amounts of Science. This allows them to reap massive amounts of Food and Culture in the early game, which plays well into their preference for a Cultural Victory. The most advantageous start position is that of Brazil, which spawns right next to the Pantanal. For example, Japan will start on the Japanese archipelago's main island, while Sumeria will spawn in the present day country of Iraq. However, unlike the Earth map, the True Start Location Earth map spawns civilizations on the map in their respective locations in the real world.

Natural wonders can also be found in their real-life locations. Like the Earth map, the True Start Location Earth map replicates the geographical features of the Earth, and its resource locations.
