It also has a great emphasis on the control of the imortant trade routes and commercial centers, and the building of the spectacular monuments these civilizations left to be preserved fos prosperity. Most important is the influence of the gods, from Muloch to astarte, from Dogon to Baal, among many others. And each player also uses the historical kings ans pharaohs of that era ineach scenario, from Shalmaneser of Assyria, to Akhnaten, the one-god pharaoh of Egypt, to Tushratta, to Hammurabi, with even a guest appearence from Moses and Joshua ! There are 50 historical kings in Genesis, each individual rated. Genesis is very god for solitaire play, but also has many scenarios thaht use 2 to 5 kingdoms : Egypt, The Hittites, The Mittani, Assyria, Urartu, those pesky Sea Peoples and Elam.
