Time to get mine out there before I forget;

Game #12

Even though it's never explicitly said in this game, the architecture, theme and year makes me positive that it's actually about my country. Yay!

Let's just say we have yet another game in common on our list...

Hint for my 13:
This game isn't famous.

#13
StarCraft (PC, 1998)
guessed by TruckOSaurus

Real-time strategy (RTS) games owe a lot to StarCraft, a pioneering game in the genre. By introducing three unique, dramatically-different, and balanced races into the equation instead of two more-or-less equal sides with similar units, Blizzard changed RTS games forever. Base-building, unit growth, and unit limits were dictated by each race -- Terran, Zerg, and Protoss -- so the mechanics of the game shifted each time a player chose his or her side. StarCraft was also one of the first RTS games to feature a compelling story that was woven into the gameplay. Apart from its stellar single-player campaign, StarCraft features several multiplayer modes available through Blizzard's Battle.net internet service.

Anno 1602?

The Dutch East India Company was founded in 1602, there are lots of windmills and the architecture seems to fit to the "Golden Age".

Not the first one.

Hint for #12

In this game there is no story, once the clock starts ticking, you make history and change the borders of the world.

Yep! Very good

Civilization?
