I play Freeciv, a free and open-source version of Sid Meier's Civilization.
The have Esperanto and Lojban as playable nations (see attached pics)
I was just wondering if we could do the same thing for TP? I already have ideas for it.

I found the freeciv PO/POT files here:
http://www.cazfi.net/freeciv/translations/S2_2/
It has challenging sentences like:
"Your attempt to unilaterally dominate outer space is highly offensive."
mi pilin e ni: sina wile e ijo ni. taso sina jo pini ala e ni. sina wile kama jan jawa pi sewi pimeja suli kama jan lawa wan taso. ni li ike suli tawa jan ale.
I know there is a project to translate the text of
World of Goo to toki pona that is mostly finished.

I was thinking of adding a TP nation to it. Below is what the nation's .ruleset file would look like:
====================================================================================
[nation_ponan]
name=_("Ponan")
plural=_("?plural:Ponans")
groups="Fictional"
legend=_("The Ponans are the people who speak Toki Pona, a constructed language that focuses on simplicity.")
leader=
"jan Sonja", ;Sonja Kisa (Creator of Toki Pona)
"jan Pije", ; B.J. Knight (Toki Pona Instructor)
"jan Male", ;Marek Blahus (Moderator of the defunct mail group)
"jan Mimoku", ;Joop Kiefte (Moderator of the defunct mail group)
leader_sex="Female", "Male", "Male", "Male",
flag="tokipona"
flag_alt = "-"
city_style = "Tropical"
init_techs=""
init_buildings=""
init_government="Despotism"
init_units=""
cities =
"Kisa", "Majuna", "Tuli",
"Po", "Pasila", "Kan", "Kapesi",
"Leko (mountains)", "Kapa (mountains)", "Pata",
"Iki", "Powe", "Nesi"
==========================================================================================
Note that the city names are old words except for "Nesi" . If "namako", "kipisi", "pu", and "monsuta" don't get in, they might as well end up here...
