Sid Meier's Civilization® VII: Heian Japan Pack

The Heian Japan* civilization is now available in Sid Meier's Civilization® VII!

By the light of the moon, in carefully cultivated gardens and elaborate villas, the poets of Heian Japan wrote their tales. The Heian period begins with the establishment of Heian-kyo (today Kyoto) in 794 CE, and marks the last era of classical Japanese history. It was a time of court refinement, when men and especially women of the court refined literature into a high art; it was also a time of rural neglect and decay, when the countryside grew increasingly restless, and tensions between powerful clans. This tension was to erupt in a revolt in the early 12th century, and the rise of the shogunates that were to dominate Japanese history for centuries afterward.
