I have two dwarf civilizations in Civilizations screen
« on: December 17, 2015, 10:36:33 pm »

Why does this happen? I thought, I can only contact 1 civilization of each kind.

Whenever i read the "doesn't care about anything anymore" line, i instantly imagine a dwarf, sitting alone on a swing set. Just slowly rocking back and forth, somberly staring at the ground, and stopping every once in a while to sigh.
It's mildly depressing.

No, it depends on how large the world is and how many civs you enable. Normally you can get a bunch of civs per race.

Yes, I know that I can have >1 civ per race.
However, I never seen >1 civ in my "C" screen (e.g. didn't have >1 civ per race that I have relationships with). Is this something new or something I just didn't see in previous versions?

It's easier to make contact with civilisations now due to tourists from them visiting?

Yes, visitors, that's probably it. In previous versions you'd only get the Dwarf caravan which comes from your own civ and it's not likely you'd be attacked by another Dwarf civ so the chance of seeing more than one in the civ screen would have been pretty low.

Presumably migrants only came from your own civ too?

i think the way that dwarves work is that theres the mountianhomes, and then that controls each fortress, and each fortress is a member of your dwarven society
