Thanks for the help everyone, I'll look into the Anno series. Looks closest to what I am looking for.

That's what I'm afraid of...:/

Close but I'm looking for real-time, not turn based. Thanks tho.

Im looking for a game that plays like Rise of Nations but has no real endgame. A game where you you have to manage resources and build necessary building and research technology but that you don't have to go to war with other nations and there is no real end, you could play forever if you wanted to. Basically a SimCity but with the play style of Rise of Nations. Any suggestions?
