I guess that the Sims team is rightfully cautious about the cultural conflict potential of African, Arabian or Russian themes. As far as I see, the game isn't sold (any more) in most of these regions. The packs would thus be external interpretations from a very western liberal perspective. No matter what they tried, they would probably get a tsunami of controversy from all sides.
There would be a problem with which African country Maxis would choose for the world, unless they made it for Apartments where you could choose different types of hotels or houses in different areas off the grid. You could be a resident or a visitor there.
It would make a good place to collect photos of various animals for your collections (not shoot 'em)! Even ride an elephant or get killed by a lion or climb Kilimanjaro.
