Rise of Nations vs The Nations

Rise of Nations blends the depth of turn‑based strategy with the pace of real‑time battles, letting you guide a civilization from the Stone Age to the Information Age. Command troops, manage resources, and research technologies across a sprawling world map while engaging in both single‑player campaigns and competitive multiplayer matches.

The Nations is a real‑time strategy adventure where you choose one of three distinct races – the Pimmons, the Amazons, or the Sajikis – and guide them from humble beginnings to a thriving nation. Manage each individual’s habits and characteristics, expand your territory, discover new lands, and engage in strategic combat to dominate rivals.
