Sid Meier’s Civilization , the acclaimed strategy series that began on PC, keeps expanding its horizons.  In 2008, it unleashed a horde of console generals in Civilization Revolution. Now the series seeks to conquer social media with Civilization Network, a title game creator Sid Meier revealed (appropriately enough)  on a Facebook page for the new product.

“Civilization Network will allow you to join together with your friends to create the world’s most powerful, richest, smartest, or just plain coolest civilization,” Meier said. “You can coordinate your strategy to win great battles, share your technology to jump ahead of your rivals, lobby your family and friends to form your own government and win vital elections, manage and grow your cities to maximize production and happiness, spy on your enemies, and work with your friends to create the great Wonders of the World.”

The game will be free to play and Meier said it will be available in 2010. He will be seeking beta testers for this new social step in the famous franchise, so keep that mouse on Gamertell to learn more.
