I realize this is hyperbole, but, not entirely accurate. Nym and Qarn both got wiped out by plague. Two out of five known ancient civilizations ain't no one. (Not to mention 5th Umbral Calamity was a time period of famine, plague, and disease, so just about every 4AE civilization falls under the wiped out by plague category until we know more details.)
Anyways hasn't this topic gone a bit... well off topic?
