Civilization Revolution contains 16 civilizations, each with their own leader. Every civilization has their own unique benefits which they gain as the game progresses through the various ages (benefits are cumulative). Unlike previous versions of Civilization, there is a much wider range of bonuses, including more traditional ones such as increased stats for various units, but also incorporating more innovative benefits like increased gold production and roads that are cheaper to build.
