Nader Shah (Civ6)

Nader Shah (August 1688 – 19 June 1747) was the founder and first shah of the Afsharid dynasty of Iran. His strategic brilliance and extensive military campaigns greatly expanded the Iranian empire, which earned him epithets such as "the second Alexander" and "the Napoleon of Persia." He leads the Persians in Civilization VI.
Fight opposing Civilizations with Nader Shah’s combat bonus against full Health units and bask in the wealth from Persia’s Domestic s.
== Intro ==
 Shah of Shahs, who rose from bondage to become the wealthiest king in the world, we call to you! Sweep your forces across the land, and, with fire and steel, set the world alight once more, that we may better see the gold’s shine by the flames’ glow.
== In-Game ==
Nader Shah's unique agenda is Jazayerchi. He likes civilizations with a high number of land units and dislikes civilizations with a low number of land units.
His leader ability is Sword of Persia. His military units receive +5 Combat Strength when attacking full health enemy units and conquered cities yield +2 and +3 on domestic s sent from them.
== Detailed Approach ==
Nader Shah should go for Iron Working and Political Philosophy right out of the gate. Iron Working gives him access to his powerful Immortals. These Immortals can crush their opponents with their Ranged Attack and the +5 Combat Strength against full Health opponents. On the way towards Political Philosophy, you will unlock Foreign Trade and Early Empire. The first of these, Foreign Trade, will give you access to s which receive benefits from both Nader Shah and Persia’s abilities. After Foreign Trade you will unlock the Pairidaeza improvements which are great for and . Once you unlock Political Philosophy, an extra is your reward. The two victories Persia is best at are Culture with their Pairidaezas or Domination with their Immortals.
== Lines ==
Nader Shah is voiced by Arian Risbaf. He speaks New Persian with an Iranian accent. This is most evident in how he pronounces نیست ("is not") in his Civilopedia quote as nist, while the word is pronounced nest in Classical Persian and other Persian dialects.
