Euskaldunak/Early CtW
From Warbirth Wiki
In Rising Tide, the Euskaldunak rule all but a single territory in the whole of the world. Conquest is difficult for them, in many ways, owing to the lack of tribute available for them for the lands around them, while rich in resources and Bonus Cards, are still too poor to support armies for war. They tend to be a major irritant for the Phoenicians, who can choose to simply colonise Western Europe and acquire tribute instead of conquering the entire world, for their home territory of Akuitanion is a prerequisite for the Phoenicians' own unique victory conditions.
