Europe
Netherlands from the air
Flyover drops you over 2 cities in Netherlands — 2 standard. Each one below carries the tell the game uses: the single feature that separates it from everywhere else.
The 2 cities
- Amsterdam Reads as: canal rings.
- Rotterdam Reads as: modern port city.
Telling them apart
The hard part is rarely recognising that you are over Netherlands — it is working out which of its cities you are over. Start with water and terrain, because those do not move: a coastal city cannot be confused with an inland one, and a city in a basin reads differently from a city on a plain.
Then use relative size. Where no city here is rated expert, the country is one of the more forgiving ones to place.
Easily confused with
Other Europe cities in the game, which share enough climate and building era to cost you a round.
