Piga Nation is an in development historical simulation game in which the player has to lead a civilization from the Ancient Age to the Modern or Future Age. The game focuses on the five main Civilization locations from history (Europe, Asia, Africa, South and North America). While developing the nation the player has to define government policy, taxation, economics and other management tasks. The player can create their own persona as leader as well as create a character for their nation through various tools (such as "Head" selection and a Flag Editor). The player will be able to engage in trade and warfare with other civilizations. The player can also build up their civilizations through constructing Public Works or Wonders.

History of the Project
The idea to create a completely domestic oriented history game was thought up by the Piga developers around 2006. The idea was to encapsule functions like government selection, technological research, and other domestic functions from games like Civilization and Age of Empires into a single game focusing on it. The game was originally called Piga Government and was to be developed for Microsoft Windows in Game Maker. The project received very little advancement however and it popped into the back of the minds of the Piga staff. Later in fall of 2007, the idea of doing the same idea for Linux in Gambas was thought up by Graham Wilson and that day he begun making it. He called it Piga Nation. The game was started be developing the Age controls, shortly after Government selection was created. From there further features where added and to this day development continues.
