Worst Nations in Each Era

[Micah]

Ah, I thought you meant "fair" in the sneak attack sense, not the ganging sense, since diplomacy and lots of borders cuts both ways. See: Artifacts. It is true that you do have a nice diplomatic status as any aquatic nation given your defensive advantage and the thought that you'll be easy pickings later once more of your holdings are on land, but that can evaporate very quickly once you start to do well.
