I thought the Glyph was Machaka-specific?
Not sure though ...

Nope - Glyph is shared with Abysia.

Mictlan, Machaka, Atlantis, and R'lyeh all have no nation specific themes.

On top of that, Machaka doesn't even have a nation specific Pretender. Seems like it could at least have a Spider Pretender, going along with the flavor message on the black sorcerors and sorceresses.
I second both motions and further Third them by requesting 2! themes for each underwater nation. How can a nation as utterly cool as the illithids have no theme? HOW!?

And Cohen, no offense but if you always talk about game balance then how can you complain about nations with no themes getting a few before Abysia gets another. Abysia is already doing well in the power and theme department. All that aside i think a demonbred theme WOULD be cool, especially since unless i am forgetting someone obvious Caelum is the only flying intensive nation out there right now.

I would especially enjoy seeing something done to give Atlantis more interesting opportunities, since nobody plays one. An atlantis risen theme, with confusion abilities and Awe commanders.

Because they are so cool that they can't be made any cooler

You've totally missed the point.
The question was, why do you continue to mis-spell "Abysia" ?

I beg to differ! Give them wings, make them breathe fire, and train them to be ninja's! Then tell me they can't get any cooler
