Expanded Great People Names Redux

[Tomorrow's Dawn]

Quality Control Update:

<Type>UNIT_MUGHAL_MERCHANT</Type>
<UniqueNames>
<UniqueName>Sher Shah Suri</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Raja Todar Mal</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Mir Jumla II</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Yahya Saleh</UniqueName>

<UniqueName>Mir Baqi</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Syed Brothers</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Abul Muzaffar Muhi-ud-Din Mohammad Aurangzeb</UniqueName>

This is likely going to take me days to crack, as I'm just learning Mughal history from scratch.
However, I'm confident in my choice of Merchants. I didn't have to change the Generals much.
Will tackle the rest in the coming days.

The latter four Engineers are Pakistanis, as there is no readily available
documentation on the identities of the architects that worked on several Mughal landmarks,
for the most part, other than Ustad Ahmad Lahauri.

Leoreth, I added all the code for the Mughal GP list (it's the Mughal GPs.txt file),
so you can just copy-paste into your version.

 

[Tomorrow's Dawn]

The Germanies get the biggest list (a whopping 14) because of a shared pool between the HRE & Prussia:

<UniqueName>Johannes Brahms</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Franz Kafka</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Fritz Lang</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Leni Riefenstahl</UniqueName>
<UniqueName>Nico</UniqueName>

I hope this list is to satisfaction.
Other categories will follow.

 

[Leoreth]

I didn't even know who Nico was.

 

[Oregon Lee]

The german female singer? <3

 

[merijn_v1]

Don't forget Heino XD

 

[Leoreth]

*narrows eyes*

Watch out or Vader Abraham ends up on the Dutch GP list

 

[Leoreth]

Included the updated Mughal list in the main mod.

 

[baseballpie]

Does Asimov qualify as a scientist? AFAIK, he was a sci-fi writer.

xD

The only modern Dutch Great Artist on their list is Tiesto.
Although I realized some days before that I actually forgot about Van Gogh,
so Tiesto will likely get the boot for Van Gogh.

 

[Jusos2108]

I was going to ask about that, but I forgot that respectively.

What's the verdict on the spies? Are going to try to have at least few per nation?

 

[Tomorrow's Dawn]

Yes. He was a professor of biochemistry at Boston U.
His Three Laws of Robotics also have a huge impact in the field of robotics &
the ethics associated with them. I am still open to suggestions about a replacement though.

 

[Tomorrow's Dawn]

Four per civ.

Assassins, spies, secret service preferred.
I've decided to axe diplomats from this category
unless they happen to be a special case.

 

[Tomorrow's Dawn]

German Great Generals:

Heinrich der Vogler
Otto I
Eugen von Savoyen
Albrecht von Wallenstein
Charles Leopold Nicolas Sixte
Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher
Carl von Clausewitz
Helmuth von Moltke the Elder
Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck
Erwin Rommel
Erich von Manstein
Heinz Guderian

I require 2 more, if anyone wants to fill in the blanks.

Also, Isaac Asimov will be replaced by Noam Chomsky in the American Great Scientists list.

 

[merijn_v1]

I will compile a Dutch GP list if you want. Are there any specific conditions I have to take into account?

Dutch anything other than Artists; I usually have my bases covered there.

In order of priority:

1. Scientists
2. Engineers
3. Generals
4. Merchants
5. Prophets

Much appreciated if they can be approached in that order.
Engineers are usually architects but can be weapon makers or inventors.
Generals must generally have a good military career (the consensus must lean this way).
Merchants can be CEOs, founders of companies and such, but generally, I choose the most successful leader of a corporation.
Merchants in the ancient and medieval eras are more commonly associated with explorers and minters of coins.
Scientists may include those working in the social sciences.

 

[merijn_v1]

I assume they should cover the timeline from around the Dutch spawn up until about now.
How many do you need of each?

Does Andre Geim count as Russian or as Dutch?
(I love to have and ig-noble prize winner in the list)
Don't worry, he also has a normal nobel prize.

Russian spies:
-Nikolai Batjusinin
-Irenaeus
-Konon Molody
-Vitaly Shlykov

Japanese spies:
-Fukushima Yasumasa
-Toyama Mitsuru
-Akashi Motojiro
-Takeo Yoshikawa

Some of these are more of a spy masters, but I think that they all qualify pretty well. First ones on both lists can be consired to be one of the founders of their countries espionage. They are in chronological order.

Dutch.

If all GPs were based on where someone was originally born,
and not the civilization they performed the most service,
I think it would be easy to realize that many, many American GPs would be disqualified.
My criteria is based on merit, not blood. It's irrelevant.

Russian spies:
-Nikolai Batjusinin
-Irenaeus
-Konon Molody
-Vitaly Shlykov

Japanese spies:
-Fukushima Yasumasa
-Toyama Mitsuru
-Akashi Motojiro
-Takeo Yoshikawa

I can append it myself, but as stated in the opening post, next time,
when contributing East Asian submissions; surname first, given name last.
Thank you for the contributions.
