He was fit as fuck though. Toughest man to ever lead a nation.
So many reasons:
>was a sick boy but forced himself to be athletic and outdoorsy to get over it, so he became a boxer, hunter, rower, etc. but was still fascinated by nature, biology, history, etc.
>read several books everyday
>was a prolific writer of various subjects and books that ended up being critical in their fields
>came from a wealthy and patrician family but his bro dad taught him to look out for the common man
>when he became state senator he would mingle with the plebs and see their abhorrent working and living conditions and work to change them and told other senators to fuck off when they tried their usual corruption unless they wanted a beating
>his wife and his mom, both of whom he loved dearly died on the same day in the same house but he didn't let it destroy him
>told corporations to suck it
>is a big reason America has so many amazing natural wonders that are unspoiled

They still got a decent stretches of territory you dingbat. Basically the only thing they didn't get was compensation.
It's not like Teddy was ever going to give them half of Russia.

Greeks are relatively close genetically to the rest of Europeans. Modern Egyptians are much closer to Europeans than bantus (the source of African slaves in USA) and east africans are equidistant between europeans and bantus. Open the image in a new tab.

>Adolpf Hitler for Germany? Stalin for Russia?
Actually I feel like those 2 guys are by far the most representative leaders of those 2 countries, ever
Likewise America should have Donald Trump as leader

>>61155168
>>61155195
CivRev was great tho.
>>61156542
Confirmed bullshit. Even if Adolf Hitler being the leader of Germany didn't somehow cause a backlash, it would mean the game would be banned in Germany due to its retarded legislation on depicting things related to WW2. It is also one of the reasons why the Hearts of Iron games don't feature the Swakistas: becasue if they did, they'd be autobanned in Germany, meaning a lot of profit is lost.
Bismarck is literally the only way they can go with Germany, as both Kaiser Wilhelm and especially Hitler are too controversial. This list is confirmed bullshit.

The thing is there was no united Germany for centuries so it's a bit complicated
Maybe they can go with more recent leaders ? Like Hindenburg or Adenauer
(inb4 they choose fucking Angela Merkel)
>>61158710
>Like Hindenburg
Literally who?
>or Adenauer
Literally who?
Civ games value star power over actual competence as leaders... unless they're women. It's:
>Gender
>Popularity
>Competence
In terms of selection. That's why Byzantium has Theodora the Whore and India has fucking Ghandi. Ashoka the great would be the most logical leader for India, but who even knows who he is? Chances are you had to google him. On the other hand, everyone knows Ghandi. Even if he never held a political office.
>>61156727
just look at iraq and syria
>>61158779
Gandhi is a fucking civ meme of course hes going to be the indian leader every time even if he wasnt actually a leader
>Like Hindenburg
>Literally who?

>Literally who?
This is funny because i just opened the wikipedia page of german leaders like "ok which ones do i know ?"
And those were the only two except Hitler and Merkel
>>61158710
They might as well choose Frederick the Great. Non-prussian Germans be damned.
>>61156846

>>61158897
>"ok which ones do i know ?"
Keep in mind where you are: /int/, international cockmeasuring board extraordinaire. We know more political leaders than the average dudebro purely because we love to jack off over them to make up for our own sense of inadequacy.
Most people, especially Germans, don't know Adenauer or Hindenburg. The most famous non-controversial German leader is without a doubt Bismarck. Either that, or you have to go all the way back to German prehistory with the likes of Frederick the Great.
>>61157371
This list isn't real? Wow you're so fucking clever.
>>61158710
Germany should be Charlegmagne, or, if the french throw a shitfit, let it be Otto I
'but who iz dat?' will be the response from the retard market towards which this game is marketed. Let's face it this isn't crusader kings or europe universialis, it's fucking consolified civilization with greek pharoahesses representing Egypt and the United States starting in 4000 b.c.

>>61161838
Because all the work (in V at least) was in making the animated leaders, there was virtually no extra work in just turning it into a full civilisation. VI might be different because they've removed the pseudo-3D environments/props and are explicitly tying more traits to "leaders" rathern than civs (V nominally tied the UA to the leader too though).
Austria might never have been added if they just chose to add leaders to existing civs.
>>61162059
I think their primary reason was wanting a leader to have a slutting agenda, they're apparently more focused on famous personalities than actually good leaders this time.

>>61170651
They picked her because of the agenda system, where she sluts up to other leaders with big armies.
