This is bullshit! What were the devs thinking?!

Istanbul was Constantinople

Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople

Been a long time gone, Constantinople

Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night

Every gal in Constantinople

Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople

So if you've a date in Constantinople

She'll be waiting in Istanbul

Explanation: The top is the ROMAN EMPIRE AT ITS HEIGHT.

The bottom is the Byzantine Empire, the successor state of the Roman Empire, just before its total collapse.

This is clearly bullshit! The devs nerfed Rome way too hard. Now we're not even competitive in the meta against the Ottomans, smh.

I missed what happened. Why'd it get so much smaller?
