apparently there's Australia DLC for C6 with some guy in a hat from the 50s

Yes and he makes me laugh every time. Look at this nerd: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL803pVl0nM

In typical Civ fashion he hates war but will randomly declare war on you all the time. Which is funny for so many reasons.

The animation where he throws his hat cracks me up every time. He's such a weenie.

lol

unsurprisingly, turns out the Australia civ is based on settler-colonial anglo australia (as seen in the Hugh Jackman movie) and not the 99% of civilization, culture and history that happened before the continent was blessed with whites

very cool
