Leader opening narrations
I'm probably not the first to notice this, and I'm probably overanalyzing this (TV Tropes alerted me to it), but...
The opening narration for most leaders describes their deeds in both life and death, and ends with something to the effect of "your people turn to you to lead them to glory once again". This, combined with the presence of ancient ruins throughout the map that can gift bizarrely advanced technologies, could lead one to think that Civ5 is an experiment by some advanced civilization to resurrect some of the great leaders in Earth history and place them on another planet and give them a second chance to rule. What do you think? Am I overthinking it? |

   Noooooooooo? Although it certainly is interesting how the narrator would often tell you how your leader has died and is now returning.

lol I remember seeing an old thread about the thought.
But i don't really think they intentionally designed the game for that

It certainly is an interesting thought, the only problem though is that they have to make the leaders immortal. Quite frankly I don't believe someone could rule for 6050 years

Not hard to wrap my mind around it - basically all the OP abilities you see in the game, unique units, exploits, bizarre behavior? The Immortal Ruler's magic.
