February is Black History Month in the United States and Canada, a celebration of contributions from the African diaspora to culture, society, and history. In recognition of the month, our team is paying tribute to Civ’s Black leaders and their lasting marks on the world.
This incredible artwork from Emmy award-winning artist Teddy Wright IV captures each of our five leaders in all their greatness:
Mvemba a Nzinga: The Apostle of Kongo brought faith, wisdom, and sweeping prosperity to his growing kingdom.
Menelik II: The defender of Ethiopia modernized his empire, forging stability and identity across the African highlands.
Amanitore: The last great builder of Nubia, Queen Amanitore fortified the Land of the Bow through her extensive restoration projects.
Mansa Musa: The great king is among the richest people to ever live. Mansa Musa used his incredible wealth to transform the Mali Empire into a center for education, artistry, and commerce.
Shaka: The mighty Zulu king transformed his military into a fierce group of warriors, and his kingdom into a formidable empire.
Through their unique and exceptional abilities, each of these great leaders forever etched their names into history. Interested in learning more about them and their civilizations? You can try out each leader and lead them to victory in the Civ VI Anthology today.
As 2021 steadily draws to a close, all of us working on Civilization are taking a moment to celebrate and reflect on an incredible year. Turns out some leaders are doing the same!
