1. Age of Bronze (this will need a few additional civilizations to exist in the base game in Antiquity other than Egypt in order to be viable, the Minoans, the Mycenaeans and the Hittites, in the end of the scenario a massive invasion of Sea People will occur)
2. Fertile Crescent (struggle for Mesopotamia between Babylon and Assyria. A few Independent People in the form of Sumerian, Akkadian and Elamite cities will exist)
3. Persian Wars (Persia will start with a massive invasion army)
4. Peloponnesian War
5. Wars of Alexander the Great
6. Diadochi Wars
7. Pyrrhic War
8. Punic Wars
9. Crisis of the Third Century
10. Civil Wars of the Tetrarchy (the scenario ends with the creation of Constantinople)
11. Fall of Rome (at an increasing pace barbarian units will invade and after a specific amount of turns an additional negative civic policy needs to be chosen)
12. Byzantine-Sasanian Wars
13. Early Muslim Conquests
14. The Crusades or more specifically the First Crusade (the Byzantines will have to be a major player)
15. Mongol Invasions of Japan
16. The Spanish Conquest of the Americas (the Aztecs and the Incas need to prepare if they want to survive the Spanish expedition)
17. Anglo-Zulu Wars
It was a shame that Civilization VI had so few scenarios. Something new that I would like to see is narrated painted images with a moving effect during the opening and the ending of the scenarios. For instance, the opening of the scenario can be one image, but the ending images need to be multiple depending on which civilization won in the end. The opening image of the Spanish Conquest of the Americas will depict a Spanish ship with conquistadors just arriving in the continent, or conquistadors discovering a pyramid in the vast jungle. The ending image if the Spanish win will depict an Aztec or Incan city in flames at night. If the Aztecs win, the ending image will show a conquistador being sacrificed atop a pyramid or Aztec warriors bringing Spanish prisoners to their city, and If the Incas win, then the celebration of Inti Raymi will be shown.
Another example, in the Persian Wars scenario the opening will depict a Persian emissary conversing with Greeks in an agora and asking their city's submission. The ending if Persia wins will depict Greeks offering tribute to the Persian king inside a throne room or Persian troops burning a Greek acropolis. If the Greeks win then the ending will show Greeks feasting in a symposium, Greeks holding a religious procession, Greeks watching a theater play or Greek athletes participating in a Panhellenic competition (hoplitodromos or another sport).

My idea is not about each single scenario, but... how about we can continue the main game at the next Age of the ended scenario game?
For example, when I finished the Romance of the Three Kingdoms scenario as the Antiquity Age game, I can continue the Exploration Age game with my unified China I played!
The map will be expanded as the TSL world map, and my empire will become a proper successor civ. (Ming for the example)

That could be a single scenario
Any scenario focusing on China as a central area, in no civ game we got one
My favourite would be some point in the incredibly messy four centuries period between the end of Han and the beginning of Tang. You just need Chinese (reskinned Han with some added diversity) factions, ancient steppe civ (which is very needed predecessor of Mongols anyway) and maybe ancient Korea for extra fun.
Early medieval Europe, between 500 AD and 1000 AD - Byzantium, Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Moors, Franks, other Germanic peoples, Anglo-Saxons, Irish, Norse, Slavs, Avars, Bulgars etc. Of those civs Goths, "Moors" (reskinned Abbasids), "Franks" (reskinned Normans), Norse and Byzantium are going to appear anyway, Slavs should appear anyway, steppe nations could be reskinned Scythians who also should appear anyway (they'd be incredibly useful progenitor civ), Irish and Bulgarians would be great additions anyway etc.
I also wholeheartedly support scenario focusing on the early Islamic conquests - in fact we could simply extend the above map to include MENA region and fill it with Byzantium, reskinned Abbasids and reskinned Achaemenids. It would only need Armenia/Georgia to be perfect.
In fact I just realized all the scarios above could simply arrive along packages of a few new civs. Early medieval one offers obvious opportunities in this regard, but even Chinese scenario could add say Tang, ancient Korea, ancient steppe civ and ancient Vietnam.
Personally I was a big fan of scenarios in civ5, contrary to some people doubting the point of their existence. Scenarios provide us with the fresh alternative to the usual tabula rasa sandbox, offering opportunity to deal with premade asymmetric situations and unique fun mechanics. I loved civ5 Fall of Rome, Into the Renaissance, Scramble of Africa (small scale early ones weren't too bad either, fun little minigames)

I think a scenario about early Rome would be neat, starting landlocked and surrounded and having to conquer the hills of Rome or found Ostia to lay the groundwork for the empire. Perhaps there could even be multiple victory conditions corresponding to the main game ones? Military would be to take the hills, Economic would be to found Ostia and establish it as a trade hub, Cultural would be to establish the Roman Games or Circus Maximus or something, and Science would be to implement the sewer system... That feels a bit much to me, defend your capital and then capture neighboring settlements or defend your capital while carving a path to the coast would both suffice on their own both in gameplay and representing that interesting, semi-legendary section of history, but maybe the developer reading this disagrees... oh yeah and hello developer! love your work!
Wait, why didn't I have this idea before
ANCIENT MIDDLE EAST (Bronze Age)
TSL map with unique mechanics and events, sea peoples invasion etc, and
- Egypt
- Assyria
- Babylon
- "Elam" (reskinned Persia)
- "Canaan" (reskinned uhh Phoenicians?)
- Hittites (I hope we see them anyway, to put Anatolians back in the gsme and serve as one of Ottoman progenitors...)
- "Mycaneans" (reskinned Greece)
- Nubia (reskinned Axum)
Obviously we can also move the timeline closer to the classical era and instead of pseudo Elam, Canaan and Mycenae have Media/Persia, Phoenicians, Greece, and Lydia instead of Hittites, plus also Urartu
Or move it even closer and have Ptolemaic Egypt, Seleucids, Nabateans, Parthia, Maccabeans, Armenia, Pontus, Rome, Galatians and Pergamon

These would rule. I’ve always wanted an early Middle Ages scenario.

@Zaarin! @Zaarin!
This is Old World.
(Which is a great game. Though I still haven't convinced Solver to add Elam. 
)
