Sumerian (Civ4)

The Sumerian people represent a civilization in Civilization IV.
== Strategy ==
The Sumerian Empire is a balanced nation. Gilgamesh's "Creative" trait provides Sumerian cities with extra culture and extra-large borders, while his "Protective" trait makes life difficult for any enemies foolish enough to cross them. This is especially true once they encounter the Vulture, the powerful Sumerian replacement for the Axeman. Finally, the Sumerian Ziggurat, an easily produced Courthouse, will bring speedy stability to Sumerian cities.
