CIV 6 - ALL 48 LEADERS GREETING SPEECH [CIV A to Z ORDER] RISE AND FALL / GATHERING STORM DLC

Here are the languages everyone speaks: Theodore Roosevelt (America) - American English Saladin (Arabia) - Arabic John Curtin (Australia) - Australian English Montezuma (Aztecs) - Classical Nahuatl Hammurabi (Babylon) - Akkadian Pedro II (Brazil) - Brazilian Portuguese Basil II (Byzantium) - Modern Greek (interestingly, he seems to speak a mix between Attic and Koiné, which makes sense since his native language, Medieval Greek, is identical in pronunciation to Modern Greek, but most scholars preferred to speak the ancient Attic tongue) Wilfrid Laurier (Canada) - English and French Qin Shi Huang (China) - Mandarin (with Classical influences) Poundmaker (Cree) - Cree Cleopatra (Egypt) - Middle Egyptian (even though Koiné Greek was actually her native language, she was also fluent in Demotic, a form of Egyptian that was spoken at the time) Victoria (England) - British English Eleanor of Aquitaine (England + France) - Occitan Menelik II (Ethiopia) - Amharic Catherine de Medici (France) - French and Italian (her French has a noticeable Italian accent, and her Italian is of her native Florentine dialect) Ambiorix (Gaul) - Gaulish (An ancient Celtic language. This is reconstructed form that also happens to have a French accent) Tamar (Georgia) - Georgian Frederick Barbarossa (Germany) - Middle High German (the main language of the Holy Roman Empire alongside Latin). Simón Bolívar (Gran Colombia) - Latin American Spanish (he speaks a neutralized form of the dialect). Gorgo (Greece) - Doric Pericles (Greece) - Attic Matthias Corvinus (Hungary) - Medieval Hungarian Pachacuti (Inca) - Quechua Chandragupta (India) - Pali Gandhi (India) - Hindi and English Gitarja (Indonesia) - Modern Javanese Hojo Tokimune (Japan) - Classical Japanese Jayavarman VII (Khmer) - Khmer Mvemba a Nzinga (Kongo) - Lingala Soendeok (Korea) - Korean Alexander (Macedon) - Attic (his native language would have been Ancient Macedonian, a register of Ancient Greek which is unrelated to Modern Macedonian, which is a Slavic language) Mansa Musa (Mali) - Arabic Kupe (Maori) - Maori Lautaro (Mapuche) - Mapudungun Lady Six Sky (Maya) - Mayan (probably Yucatec Maya) Genghis Khan (Mongolia) - Mongolian Kublai Khan (Mongolia + China) - Mongolian Wilhelmina (Netherlands) - Dutch Harald Hardrada (Norway) - Old Norse (his rendition of Old Norse has significant Icelandic influences due to the uncertainty of the pronunciation of certain letters) Amanitore (Nubia) - Nubian Suleiman (Ottomans) - Ottoman Turkish Cyrus (Persia) - Middle Persian Dido (Phoenicia) - Phoenician Jadwiga (Poland) - Polish Trajan (Rome) - Classical Latin Peter (Russia) - Russian Robert the Bruce (Scotland) - Early Scots / Middle English Tomyris (Scythia) - Ossetian (This is the closest living relative of the Scythian language, which would have been Tomyris' native tongue) Philip II (Spain) - Castilian Spanish Gilgamesh (Sumeria) - Old Akkadian (his native tongue was actually Sumerian) Kristina (Sweden) - Swedish Bà Triệu (Vietnam) - Vietnamese Shaka (Zulus) - Zulu

Catherine: I look forward to learning all your secrets. Quickly clears browser history

0:37 : "... against the hawks of war!" Someone misspelled emus, lol

I like that not only are they portrayed speaking their own languages, the VAs are clearly natives/fluent, and they didn't just hire some English-speaking actors to mispronounce all the words.

I love Frederick's introduction. I'm ruler of uhhh, Germany... Italy... Burgundy... and uh, a bunch of others.

Jadwiga was King of Poland because back then "Queen" was only the title for wife of reigning King. She wasn't wife of King but she was King herself, ruling the country. Nowadays Queen is a female equivalent of King.

Every leader: introduce themself Mansa Musa: "I'M RICH"

Gilgamesh emanates Gentle Giant™ energy and I'm at peace with that

4:43 As legend goes, the moment any warmongeror player sees this leader, they are fabled to break out in a nervous sweat.

Me: it's an honor to meet you. Also me after 15 turns: surprise war go brrr.

"Hawks of war", he definitely means the emus

Everyone else: a warm welcome to their nation and who they are Tomyris: let’s make things straight don’t betray me and you won’t die

The level of work the devs invested in the languages alone is awesome

Qin Shi Huang speaks ancient formal Chinese, not the modern way, very nice.

Whenever I play against a alexander and I see him take his helmet off and shake his hair around I panic a bit thinking theres no way I'm able to compete with good hair like that

John curtin seems like such a kind outgoing guy in his introduction

Civ 6 has a disney-style animation and expressions for all leaders, while Civ 5 have full detailed outfit and their actions along with an awesome background. I can't tell which one's better.

I love how dashing Alexander The Great is, he gives off that adventurer vibe

0:54 I'm a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker and I think it's pretty accurate, I'm really happy about it. He just doesn't say that "after all".
