Wish this otherwise really cool mod didn't choose to base its fictional cultures on pop-cultural ideas of "jungle people" and "desert people" that come from old fashioned racist stereotypes. Anything else would have worked just as well, without alienating anyone outside of Europe/USA. Solid mod though.

I am an example of this.
My avatar, as of posting at least, is a cowboy potato.
People on the Internet have joked about Latvians and potatoes.
As a Latvian I found it funny and cool to make myself a potato.
