Classic is the most difficult-to-understand map. I can't understand why anybody likes it.

When you get random armies displaced, rather than nice empires that can make great fan-fiction, you get scattered tribes. The storyline only makes sense if you assume a post-apocalyptic world. Why else would Chicago be allied with Dakar and Yakutsk but be at war with Edmonton, Montreal, New York, Vancouver, Los Angeles and Havana?

Have you met someone from Vancouver?! I wouldn't ally with those hippies if I were within spitting distance from them!
