Just interrupting any sensible discussion with something I have discovered: Catherine de Médicis is apparentely the antagonist in the film 'Queen Margot' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110963/). Though I am sure she is played as something of a caricature, I might have to watch this to give me some feel of the character before I play the game. Spoiler :
I found a site with medals/coins of Mehmet II. Some of them: Spoiler : Spoiler : Spoiler : The resemblence is there, but no perfect match.

Hmm, could confirmed the multiple leaders theory. Also explains why an Xzibit picture was in their office.
still a few less views though. more spam needed! er... So new plan (since we've beaten the ones people 'really really wanted' to death without finding them): Lets' focus on crazy alternative options. not the ones already mentioned, but let's assume that everything already suggested is not right for the last 2 images, and search elsewhere. what other civs or cultures have been in civ games before, but not currently suggested for the images? Also, the civit is the most important item on that screenshot.
I think I see what you're doing, and how. Civit as in Reddit's Civit, right? As far as I can tell, the following haven't been mentioned due to the alphabet rule: Babylon Carthage Celtic Zulu Iroquois Byzantines Hittites Mayan Dutch Ethiopia Assyria Austria Huns Indonesia Morocco Polynesia Songhai Venice
Oh, stop it! Do you see any Mongolian face among portraits? I see this nasty beard and mustache. I see our khan. B5 - Golden Horde!
