RTS is the acronym for Real Time Strategy. The Civilization games are all turn based, and thus called Turn Based Strategy (TBS).

Hate being a prick about it, but there is a quite clear distinction between them, and the TBS genre have existed way longer than the RTS one. :P

Agreed, also Eury is right, especially since I love TBS but don’t enjoy RTS at all.
