So the country that I live in Australia and the country that my ancestry is from (Greece) are getting snubbed again, by international style DLC packages. But this actually gave me an idea for two different DLC packages:
Mediterranean DLC or CCP- Building Styles from the Mediterranean, featuring two types- mainland Medditeranean (what you'd find in mainland Greece or Italy) and island Mediterranean (the white buildings of Santorini or Kytheria or the buildings of Sicily), also buidlings from the Middle East. This would also include Ancient Greek, Roman and possibly Ancient Egyptian style buildings
Two new parks or unique buildings- Forum and Agora

New World DLC- Includes building style from across the USA, Canada, Mayans, Aztecs, Australia and New Zealand. Commercial buildings could include pubs and milk bars

You expect them to release 195 small DLCs at once?
Actually, depending on who you ask, there's more than 195 countries because that figure doesn't include disputed countries like Palestine or Taiwan, but that's neither here nor there. But that's the thing though. I do NOT expect 195 small DLCs at once. One general DLC should be enough to cover SIGNIFICANT swarths of the world. For example, is there much of a difference between Lebanese architecture and Persian architecture? No, not really? At least not enough to warrant its own separate DLC. I mean that, considering a Korean CCP will give us a sthird Asian themes DLC, why can't we also have a general Med/ME DLC? I know we have European suburbia, but the Mediterranean region is far different. You don't need a different one for Greece and Italy, for example, because the architecture is similar enough.

Five more DLCs would pretty much cover the whole world.
Those 5 would be:

Latin America (again no need for each Latin American country to have its own style)
Mediterranean/Middle East (ALL the countries in that part of the world could be covered by the same style)
Australia/NZ (lumped into one style)
Polynesia (all of Polynesia in one style)
Far North (Scandinavia, Alaska, Canada, Eastern Europe)
All enough to cover pretty much the whole world

Considering that we will have 3 East Asian DLCs, I can't see why can't have ONE single DLC covering the area from Spain to Afghanistan, a region which covers five of the major Ancient Civilisations- Rome, Greece, Egypt, Persia and Carthage, as well as being a relatively large area. I'm not asking for many covering this area, I am asking for one. Besides, we don't have any DLCs at all where all the houses are the same colour and a Med/ME DLC would cover that. I'm not asking for each of those places in the Med/ME to have their own DLC, one is enough to cover them all, and it could be a pretty diverse DLC

So, if this is ever implemented, I would suggest the Australia/NZ DLC would have the following:

Unique Building- Rugby/Rugby League stadium- This functions EXACTLY like the football stadium from match day, except we play two separate sports there, Rugby and Rugby League, with two separate teams,
New parks- Cricket Pitch, AFL pitch, small park with Rugby/Rugby League posts
Plopable Building= RSL/Leagues/Sports Club- these will have live shows which will occasionally double the amount of ordinary visitors
Small commercial buildings- milk bar, lolly shop, pub
The Australia/NZ DLC could even cover areas such as Papua New Guinea, East Timor, Vanuatu and all those areas. We don't need seperate DLCs for Australasia/Asia Pacific, when one could cover the entire region


And for the Med/ME DLC:
Parks- Forum, Agora, statue park, ancient ruins
Small commercial buildings- kiosks, greengrocers, butchers, barber shops/hairdressers, night clubs (to be shared with after dark)
Unique Building= Ancient relics, historical monument (e.g. Parthenon, Colosseum, etc.)

I like the Ancient relic and historical monument! Those could boost tourism too.
