Default Nations with Underwater Ability

I'm a bit confused on which land nations can build Underwater defence and/or have special underwater units. Is this all or are there other nations that have underwater ability?

What I know:
EA Agartha can build underwater defence and fortresses, with wet one units and commanders

LA Jomon can create underwater defence and fortresses with half-man, half seafood creatures and dragon mages

LA Atlantis can create underwater defence and fortresses with unsleeping shamblers, mages and priest.

LA Mictlin can create underwater defence, but not build fortresses nor has unique units.

Umm.... Underwater nations can build UW PD.

Nuf said?

Well, thanks for that bit of obvious information, but that's not what I was asking, I was asking if there were any other LAND nations that have the ability to build underwater PD or units.

Just look at the troops you have. If your basic troops can go underwater, you know you have UW PD. Otherwise, you still might.

Does that mean MA Shinuyama has UD because they have Kappa? LA Jomon doesn't have any basic troops that can go underwater, but they have UW PD and unique troops. That doesn't seem to be a solid answer to this question. I guess I will have to try every nation myself to get the answer.

EA agartha is a fully amphibious nation. LA Jomon is a unique nation that isn't really amphibious but had UW ability added on later without really adding a way to get there. LA Atlantis is another fully amphibious nation that was just chased out of the water. LA Mictlan has some atlantian refugees, which explains how they get underwater but can't really build anything. I think the only other land nation with a hope of getting underwater PD is MA Agartha, but I am not sure whether they can or not. Your best bet though, really, is just to try everything, yes.

MA Agartha and MA Shin cant build underwater PD, just checked. The whole point of this topic was to ask if there were any other nations like LA Jomon that have a surprise UD and units.

I also tested EA Fomoria and LA Patala, since they have Amphibeous units, but no go, they dont get UD either.

No other nation nation, really. The agartha olm will spawn units in cbm. The mother of monsters spawns sea dogs as I recall but thats more god oriented than nation.

Nothing comes to mind.

Alright, the strange inconsistencies in this game irritate me a bit. Although MA Agartha can't build PD or fortresses, if they capture one or get one some other means, they can recruit wet ones like in EA. Yes, they have unique troops available, but can't build fortresses or PD.
