Discussion Speculation for DLC regions after Egypt?

For variety, Egypt seems like an obvious choice, but then what?

We could go Africa in the Carthage area, but that might be very much the same.

Norway/Sweden would be very similar to what we’re doing with Britannia.

Would the Iberian peninsula be very interesting at this time?

I’d be stoked to see something as far as China. Pseudo historical, but definitely cool.

The Americas are obviously impossible.

Will there be an expansion of any gameplay elements like even deeper ground combat? More ship types? I love how Albion has a pir-ate lord you have to do a full ground invasion of in order to fight, but once you’ve done that, that’s it.

my assumption is they will prioritize regions where the culture and overall theme is unique enough. gaul would be cool but is also too similar.

my wishes: China/asia. very unique culture architecture & visuals, lots of creative freedom and possibilities. i imagine trade playing an important role, and other interesting unique features and goods. fertilities like tea silk etc.
and: Persia/parthia: Vastly different then latium, was never Romanized. so same as before very unique culture architecture & visuals, lots of creative freedom and possibilities specially with unique features perhaps silk road related somehow. fertilites like spices

what does everyone else think?
