The third quarter of Civ is popular is you don’t take one of the basic, collegiate Civ sequences like Euro or American (which are just paper centric version of AP history). If you elect to complete one of the areas studies major requisite, mixed graduate student enrollment programs instead such as East Asian, you definitely would want to take the third quarter as you would get a really incomplete picture otherwise, i.e. no Korea.

Incidentally, it will be interesting to see if they drop two quarters of Art / Music / Drama option in the near future. It is really killing the departments to offer so many intro courses to non-majors. As it is, from a pure scheduling standpoint I would encourage you not to plan to take two or A/M/D unless you are very flexible in when you can do it. Many students get iced out of enrolling for any class within the sub area they want.
