View Full Version : Scientific Leaders Needed?!?!
calgacus Nov 23, 2003, 06:09 PM With Conquests' newScientific leaders feature, I need to find better lists for the improved city and leader lists I've already composed.
For instance, look at the lists for the Celts, the Mongols, the Byzantine and the Romans :
CELTS
Maredudd ap Owain
Grufudd ap Llewelyn
Rhodri Mawr
MONGOLS
Ulan Bator
Minzu Wenyibao
Kumujil-yin Qoro
BYZANTINES:
Geminus (not Byzantine!!!!)
Empedocles of Acragas (not Byzantine :lol: )
Apollonius of Tyana (not Byzantine!!!!)
Callinicus of Heliopolis
Ctesibius (not Byzantine!!!!)
ROMAN:
Leonardo da Vinci
Galileo Galilei
Enrico Fermi
Guglieilmo Marconi
Lucretius
:rolleyes:
Well, you get the picture. So, we need new lists. Good ones please, with a min. of 5.
calgacus Nov 23, 2003, 06:30 PM Example, here is an improved list for the Celts:
Laidcenn Mac Baith
Cenn Faelad
Banban of Kildare
St Adamnan
Johannes Scottus Eriugena
Sedulius Scottus
Giraldus Cambrensis
Johannes Duns Scotus
Xen Nov 23, 2003, 06:35 PM I feel your pain on the Roman list calgaus, most definatley I do...
I think we take culutral leaders, anbd make them "scientific" leaders- since science in the gam ealso represent cultural innovation...
as such, here is an example that can go on the list for Rome..
Pliny
Cicero
Ovid
Tiberius Gracchus
Ozymandias Nov 23, 2003, 09:19 PM "Grufudd ap Llewelyn"!?!? -- funny, I was always told my ancestor's name (not kidding) was "Llewelyn ap Gruffydd", last ruler of Wales. Of course, "Grufudd" / "Gruffydd" is a matter of transliteration, but the order of the names is not!

aaglo Nov 26, 2003, 03:37 AM Claudios Galenos (~120-200 AD): a Roman doctor, who's medical knowledge was lost during the dark ages, and the same level of medical care was achieved in the 1900's.

Archimedes
Leonardo Fibonacci (see Fibonacci numbers and rabbits, also gold ratio!)
Alessandro Volta (batteries)
Amedeo Avogadro (chemistry)
Giuseppe Ravizza (typewriter)
Giulio Natta (propylene)
If you want some cultural:
Dante Alighieri
Alessandro Manzoni
Cesare Beccaria (Penal right)
S. Augustin
S Francesco
S. Benedetto
Plautus

Mithadan Nov 27, 2003, 02:54 AM Isn't Ulan Bator the capital city of modern Mongolia, not some smart scientific dude?
aaglo Nov 27, 2003, 03:43 AM Is it hard to imagine them being both :lol:
Actually, I've no idea if it's a fake name for a scientist or not. BTW, what did he do (if he's real)?
sgrig Nov 27, 2003, 08:38 AM Ulaanbaatar (which is a different transliteration of Ulan Bator) means "Red Hero" in Mongolian, according to Encarta. This is what the city has been renamed to after Communists took over in 1924. Before that it was name Urga.
So I doubt there was a Mongolian scientist named "Red Hero"! :lol:

I dont think you understand calgacus, like many other do NOT want non-Roman scientists- which what you posted- your list is of Italians, which my freind, are a far cry from Romans
