So, what is it about Sweden and its place in history that would excite folks?

Based on the comments I've seen in these forums, probably the fact that's the birthplace of Paradox Interactive

I like how they have a sense of humor about it.

Portugal confirmed

Portugal confirmed

Clearly it's a reference to their classic tune "Waterloo". Napoleon confirmed.

Okay, they are just foaming it in this time around. I think I'm going crazy nuts

 

[SammyKhalifa]

See, people were all complaining last time that it was too hard.

Now look.

 

[Steamboat Willem]

Portugal confirmed

Indeed:
- ABBA rose to fame with the song 'Waterloo'
- Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo by the Duke of Wellington, who also had great military successes in Portugal

Portugal confirmed

Hey, nice library. I wonder if it's someone holding a book.

I was too focused on looking at the globe I didn't notice the library in the background. I haven't focused too much on the leaked leaders but I heard there is a female leader who is holding a book in her leader screen.

Sounds like it'll be her.

I have no idea, Denmark is clearly always the superior choice

I know "Money Money Money" from them. Mali was already confirmed. But who else makes great money? That's right, Venetians with their trade empire.

Serenissima Republica di Venezia confirmed.

 

[SupremacyKing2]

If Sweden is a science/diplomatic civ that should be super interesting.

How could a woman reading a book dressed as a man with messy hair ever be a Queen, let alone be Kristina Augusta, who adopted the name Christina Alexandra and became Queen of Sweden?

IIRC, she was crowned King (like Jadwiga).

No, no, no, the reference is the Waterloo Station in London: special railroad bonuses for really ugly railroad architecture confirmed...

I have no idea, Denmark is clearly always the superior choice

I was hoping for Cnut the Great as an Alternative Leader for Denmark, Sweden, Norway, or England:
Eleanor was an amateur . . .

Keep on dreaming! We don't need more backstabbers like Dandolo.

 

[Leathaface]

I hope Sweden is a Science powerhouse. IMO only Korea, Kongo and Sumeria are really good at Science in Civ VI ATM. (Scotland is when playing as them, but from what i've seen not as the AI)

Tsk, it were the Byzantines who promised to pay the Crusaders and then attempted to drive them away. Enrico just used the situation very well and took what was promised to him

Besides, more economic Civs (and if Venice isn't one, then I don't know what is) would be nice

Serenissima Republica di Venezia confirmed.

"Mamma Mia" is more popular. And guess who says that? Mario who is an Italian plumber.
All of Italy should be confirmed.
