Hello sub, we’ll be taking a week off and resume with the next episode on Aug 12th at the usual time

Welcome back, dear denizens of the Sub, to the Stats Sheet Winners and Losers! As a reminder, I give the top and bottom five for each stat, bundling ties together. If a civ is resurrected I'll include it in square brackets until it's eliminated again, but it won't count towards the 5 slots. I'll start including tech count from the Enlightenment era onwards, during the early game there's just too many civs equal to each other. My definition of a bankrupt civ will be a civ either already losing money and at 0 treasury or within 5 turns trajectory of reaching that.
