We could pay tribute to Age of Empires I and choose 'YAMATO Empire of the Rising Sun' which was one of the included initial campaigns. Yamato is the name of a Japanese dynasty (approximately 250–710 AD), that was located in Ancient Japan with the capital city at Fujiwara. The Yamato are the ancestors of modern Japanese people and were the first people to unify and conquer all of Japan. In Age of Empires, they are one of the three playable East Asian civilizations and make an excellent offensive civilization on sea maps. They also have a self-sufficient economy giving them a slight edge in the beginning of the game. The equivalent civilization is known as Japanese in both Age of Empires II and Age of Empires III.

I agree that 0 A.D. is already good enough to be and early access title on Steam. With a reasonable introductory price of around 10 EUR/USD it could certainly generate funds to speed the developement of this wonderful game. For instance to have a set of scenario and/or campaigns.
