Note that single-gender (e.g. [FEMALE], [MALE], [NO_GENDER]) creatures will not have breeding couples, so a civilization with only these creatures will not have any population.  (<s>Possible exception is if they have very high [DAMBLOCK] and [MAXAGE] values</s>.  Tested in 40d, [NO_GENDER] civs, at least, are not placed at all.  Presumably if the civ-starting code can't place breeding couples, it doesn't start the civ.  Non-reproducing civs can be created by giving the creatures a high [MAXAGE] and a '''HIGHER''' [CHILD] or [BABY] age.  Because the children never grow up, the civ is limited to its original individuals).
