    They can add more Spanish speaking countries I guess, but overall well done, last time they only used Brazil. Besides Gran Colombia was the closest that came in ideology of wanting to United all the Spanish speaking regions so I guess the shoe fits

    Not so old, but I had PC since I remember. MicroProse had the most interesting games when I was kid, and besides I played some of those games a couple of years after they were first published.

    By the way, this used to be my favorite game until I found Shogun and Medieval Total War:

    No, it wasn't, that was New Spain, we started and everyone wanted to copy
    Not to mention that New Spain created (along with Napoleon III) the concept of Latin America
    The plan was to united all "Latin" countries in the Americas as a single country and be ruled by Mexico through Maximilian I of Mexico
    Forward now, did we accomplish that? to some extent because now all yall identify as Latino

    So how can it be Gran Colombia? They couldn't even fight for their own independence without the help of Haitians
    They were not built like us, not even close, we fought for our independence and gave Central America their independence (except Panama since that country belonged to Gran Colombia)

    That video is pure propaganda with misleading information!
    I will report that game because the game should've focused on real warriors aka Mexicans!
