Add the Nepal civilization to your collection for The Modern Age in Sid Meier's Civilization® VII as part of the paid Crossroads of the World Collection DLC!*

Nestled high in the Himalayas, and incorporating both highland Buddhist and lowland Hindu populations, Nepal has clung to its sovereignty despite its precarious location. 19th century Nepal was governed by an autocratic group of families, and guarded by the fierce Gurkha warriors. Following an agreement with the British, they maintained a degree of independence at the crown of the world.
