Agenda 	Approval 	Disapproval
Airpower 	I must say, the power of your airforce is not one to be trifled with. Very nice. 	There is no glory to keeping your feet on the ground. You should really try building an airforce.
Ally of Enkidu 	You are a good friend and ally. Gilgamesh will remember this. 	If you harm my friends, you will face the might of Uruk; this I promise you.
An End to Suffering 	Ending spiritual suffering is just as important as easing physical distress. You understand this. 	How can your people attain the divine without examples of divinity?
Angevin Empire 	I am told you have placed great cities near our common border, like a garden of splendid roses. Delightful! 	If you are going to trouble yourself to make cities near our border, at least make them beautiful, prosperous cities, so I may enjoy the view.
Archipelagic State 	You avoid the smaller shores. Such deference is noted—and well-regarded. 	You cannot keep hold of your island territories. You should deliver them to someone who can.
Ayyubid Dynasty 	Blessings be upon you. You spread truth and compassion through your acts in the name of the magnificent and perfect God. 	I will not abide sacrilege. You will pay for your blasphemy against the most exalted, he who knows no imperfections.
Backstab Averse 	Our two nations have never been stronger. May you have many victories in times of peace. 	Loyalty is its own reward. Do you not know this?
Basilike Ge 	All of our grand divine aspirations begin with a bit of bread, is it not so? 	I hear your people make a porridge of ashes and twigs. Tell me, is that true?
Bibliophile 	I’ve just acquired a new work and will host a viewing soon. Your emissaries are invited to attend. 	I suppose you think art is great when it ties a room together, you philistine.
Big Stick Policy 	Thanks for keeping the peace on the continent. Bully for you! 	No man is above the law. It behooves you to remember that.
Billionaire 	The Netherlands flourishes with every shipment you send to us. 	Those who refuse trade often think they can take what they want from us. They are sorely mistaken.
Black Queen 	I see you are also practiced in the subtler arts of statecraft. I've always rather enjoyed a bit of espionage, myself. 	You really should start paying attention to what's going on around you. There are games being played here on so many levels.
Bushido 	You build your empire as the Rising Sun: powerful and brilliant. 	To follow Bushido is to train the body, the mind, and the soul… but where can your people do so?
Canadian Expeditionary Force	You have proved a reliable partner in resolving international conflict, Canada commends you. 	Why do you not help resolve the crises that affect the world? Are you unmoved by the plight of others?
Carabobo 	It seems that you understand both history and statecraft with a well promoted army. Your people benefit from your leadership.	May I offer a friendly word of warning? Change your ways, friend, or those who lead promoted armies will change them for you.
Cheomseongdae 	Your mastery of creation's secrets is the envy of my people. 	While others reach for the heavens, you claw at the dirt.
City Planner 	Your cities are built properly. For each task, a place to perform it. 	Your cities overflow with filth. Why not put your land to more productive use?
City-State Ally 	We are true friends with the smaller civilizations. We appreciate that you recognize this fact. 	You tread on dangerous ground by making common cause with city-states. Leave them to us.
City-State Protector 	It is an admirable thing to look out for those who cannot look out for themselves. 	It is a deplorable thing to bully the weak.
Civilized 	These Barbarians have been a nuisance to us all. Thank you for your help! 	How can you let those Barbarians run amok so close to your home?
Counter Reformer 	I am relieved you understand that we cannot tolerate heretics. It is against God, of course. 	Rather than penitent, you are blasphemous. The vengeance of God will be upon your head.
Court Intrigue 	You've been such a comfort to me. As loyal as my eunuchs. 	You think I am here to be plotted against? I am the one that plots!
Cradle of Civilization 	To copy Hammurabi is the best course. You do this, which is good. 	You must do what I tell you, or I may destroy you.
Cultured 	I am impressed with the unique culture your people are developing. 	You are not doing much to develop a strong culture. What will we have to remember about your people?
Darwinist 	It is in combat that the true soul of a civilization is revealed. May the best man win. 	-
Decolonization 	Let us exchange ideas, gold, and good... just not land. 	The divine has granted each of us a land to rule as we see fit. Stay in your corner.
Defender of the Homeland 	You have not been plotting my destruction, so I will not plot yours. 	Vietnam watches you.
Delian League 	You are wise to leave our neighboring city-state to us. 	That city is ours. I would suggest you don't interfere.
Demagogue 	I am pleased that you are ready to accept me as the supreme leader of this planet. Already others whisper that my time is at hand.
Pericles: You will never know the joy of a responsive mob to a good speech, because you never practice the art of politics.	I see through your honeyed words and your curried favors. You seek ultimate power for yourself, and you would have the nations give it to you of their own free will.
Pericles: I'll ostracize you for what you're doing! Playing on emotions of the mob is my route to power!
Destination Civ 	We’ve started a tour package for your citizens who want a world-class vacation. Apparently, nothing like this exists in your civilization.
Mvemba a Nzinga: Your people have a simple culture. It is amusing and somewhat tragic. You could learn from the rest of the world.	I know the world is beating a path to your tourist sites, but be warned! Our people possess blue jeans and rock music and are not afraid to use them.
Mvemba a Nzinga: Vibrant and unique cultures are threatened by the rising tide of your popular culture.
Devout 	Peace be to you and yours. It is heartening to see another just as pious as myself. 	What guides you? Surely, you cannot believe in nothing. Come, show your people the light!
Divine Guardian 	Your decisive actions, your great victories, all are a gift of God. Make sure you thank Him. 	You lack dignity, honor, piety, and all that makes a ruler righteous. Perhaps you should copy me.
Enthusiastic Disciple 	I welcome the words of your prophets and priests. We learn so much from their good works. 	I can only assume your reluctance to spread your religion comes from lack of conviction.
Environmentalist 	We have only been given one earth, and I am glad that I am not the only one to respect that. 	I must tell you that your destruction of our earth is not just affecting you, but your neighbors as well.
Eternal Enigma 	You know well how to treasure the forests and lakes of your homeland. 	You order your cities like a ledger: here is where the scientists go, that zone is for poets. Banality.
Ethiopian Highlands 	I am pleased you find comfort in flat land, for the hills are mine. 	The high hills are mine by right and custom. You are better off settling elsewhere.
Expansionist 	It is better that you lack ambition to claim land, because I believe you lack the acumen to rule what you would take.
Qin Shi Huang: I am pleased you have chosen to remain a barbarian people, whose kingdom merely emphasizes my glory.	How can you dare to claim such lands for yourself, when your people are weak and so badly led?
Qin Shi Huang: I am the Emperor of all under heaven. That means all lands, including those you seek to possess for yourself, are rightfully mine. Do not strive to equal me.
Exploitative 	The world is ours for the taking! And take it, you have. 	Bountiful lands surround you! How can you ignore them?
Explorer 	Yes, very good. Leave the exploring to me. 	There is only so much to discover, and I'm afraid I cannot abide anyone who sets out ahead of my own explorers.
Flat Earther 	I agree with you—There are too many pressing problems on earth to be pinning our hopes on space.
Cleopatra: Blessed is the one who leaves the heavens to the Gods, and does not aspire to walk among them.	How can you think about a future in space, when the present situation on earth should command your full attention!
Cleopatra: Do not approach the sun god Amun-Ra, nor the sky goddess Nut! Your impiety offends them! You will bring about the ruin of the world!
Flower of Scotland 	Wise to keep peace with your neighbors. Blood feuds are paid at great expense. 	Keep your wars distant. Otherwise you track the muck through your own lands.
Fun-Loving 	I'm hearing talk that your people want to celebrate your rule. Nice job keeping them happy. 	You might want to look into a few more amenities for your citizens. I don't think they are enjoying your rule.
Gallic Wars 	A victorious army is one led by a victor. 	The danger lies at your very doorstep, and you do nothing.
Golden Age of Suleiman 	Our poets and philosophers hold up your civilization as the light of the world, and I must agree with them. 	Aspire to be a worthier example to the rest of the world! Your people will love you if you lead them to glory.
Gossip 	It is good that our relationship is built on the strength of knowing other people's secrets.
Catherine de Medici: Maybe you've heard whispers that I consider you to be one of my best sources. But who listens to what people say? Besides you and I, of course.
Pericles: You must enjoy the reports of your envoys and spies as much as I do!
Victoria: The next time I send a delegation to you, the leader will have a big, fat dossier full of good secrets. Make sure no one's around when you open it.	I often wonder why you say so little. I believe you've nothing interesting to say.
Great Person Advocate 	I am pleased to see that the great minds of the world prefer our empire to yours. 	Your recruitment of great people we coveted is becoming a real problem.
Great White Fleet 	Those of us with great navies can make our will felt across the world, and we are the true masters of the seas.
Teddy Roosevelt: So, you seek to challenge our supremacy at sea? Bully! I relish the competition!	You must make an effort at building ships and projecting your power across the seas, or no nation will respect you.
Teddy Roosevelt: Do you so readily concede competition in the arena of the seas? Why intentionally constrain your sovereignty? Are you afraid?
Harald's Saga 	Honor demands we stand firm when our thralls are threatened, and you and I are both people of honor. 	A good king is one who cares for those who would be his jarls. You are no good king.
Heavy Industry 	I extend my heartiest congratulations on the productivity of your people. 	Your people are lazy and unworthy. If you can produce nothing, your civilization will soon be forgotten.
Horn, Chest, Loins 	The armies you field reveal your strength. Did you purge the rabble? Always wise to purge the rabble. 	Why allow your forces to keep their identity? They should band together to serve one will—yours.
Horse Lord 	The cavalry you field is an embarrassment, but thankfully a small one. 	You wouldn't wear a sheep's bladder and call it a helmet. So why claim you have amassed "cavalry?"
Ideologue 	I see you're a like-minded individual, and must commend your government practices. 	Our ideological differences are only the beginning. I cannot approve of the way you govern your people...
Industrial Revolution 	Industry, as you show well, is our only path forward. And you have made great strides. 	A word of advice: progress is not a tool. It is a wave, and will drown those who cannot keep ahead of it.
Intolerant 	How happy is the land whose ruler follows the one true religion, and protects the souls of his people! 	Blasphemy and heresy spill from the lips of your subjects! You must restore your people's souls by restoring the true religion!
Iron Confederacy 	I have great respect for those who declare their friendships to the world. 	Choose your friendships wisely—but you must choose.
Iron Crown 	I commend you on your prudence. To aid that city-state is to invite death. 	I will destroy my enemies, and if you continue to help them, I will destroy you as well.
Jazayerchi 	I would love to speak to you of the beauty of horses. 	You should never seek a land war on my continent.
Kaitiakitanga 	Your land stays green and your waters are clean and clear. Choice. 	You pile filth on the land and dump it in the sea! You waste and spoil the world!
Last Viking King 	A strong navy… that's a beautiful sight. 	Your seas are unprotected, friend. All too easy to raid.
Lawgiver 	You, too, must possess the wisdom of Solomon, for your nation is made of many people who live in harmony. 	If you would be master of the world, you must first be master of your people—and you show no signs of mastery in this matter.
Libertarian 	Maximal freedom can come only from civilizations pursuing their own interests, wouldn't you say?
Frederick Barbarossa: I am pleased that you recognize these political gestures are mere games, devoid of true power and without respect for the right of rule.	By what right do you impose your political agenda on my sovereign civilization? I do not consent to be ruled against my will.
Frederick Barbarossa: Your attempts at creating this greater political union comes close to stealing the authority of my crown. I do not take kindly to those who do not respect this crown.
Lord of the Mines 	Rejoice with me, friend, for we are free from every want and can devote our time to the will of God. 	What have you done, that God has withdrawn his bounty from you? See that you return to righteousness!
Maurya Empire 	The best neighbors are distant ones. Right now, you are India's best neighbor. 	There is no distance between our lands. My people are forced to endure the stench of your own.
Money Grubber 	Your treasury is filling up quite nicely. It's always nice to have such strong income, isn't it? 	Your empire is headed toward bankruptcy. How can you survive with debt piling up?
Narikala Fortress 	I appreciate the walls you build for your people. You have a Georgian spirit. 	Your people are too trusting. They'll let anyone into their cities—even barbarians.
Navigator's Legacy 	Ah, yes. You and I both know the sweet melancholy of the sea. 	How can you stand to sit on your own shores and not look beyond?
Neo-Confucianism 	The true scholar leads, and provides an example for others to follow. 	To take a step down a false path is not progress.
New Rome 	We create power with props and stage sets, with poetry and grace. 	Surely there is more to life than what you offer?
Nuke Happy 	Great minds think alike, I see. There are so many uses for that technology... 	Nuclear weaponry is the future! How can you not see that?
Opportunist 	I understand all too well, there are some opportunities one simply can't pass up. 	If there's deception afoot, I prefer it when I am the one providing the intrigue.
Optimus Princeps 	The reach of your empire is as Jupiter's over the heavens. Well done. 	You have left the richest parts of the land for your enemies to claim. Are you so scared of expansion?
Paranoid 	I am relieved to see that your empire poses no threat to ours. 	Your cities are so close. Your troops are so strong. You are making me nervous!
Patron of the Arts 	Imagine all the amazing things the brilliant minds of my nation will accomplish. 	Your finest engineers and architects would be happier in a place where they could grow. Brazil, for instance.
Pax Mongolica 	You show wisdom and might working in harmony, like well-alloyed steel. 	If you cannot rule well, a better ruler will come and overthrow you. All of history teaches us this.
Peacekeeper 	There is no shame in deterrence. Having a weapon is very different from actually using it. 	If you are so bloodthirsty, maybe it is better to put an end to your leadership.
Perpetually on Guard 	I commend your perseverance. We share a common interest in protecting those who often cannot protect themselves. 	War can only bring us loss. Loss of lives, loss of productivity, loss of our very humanity!
Pillager 	Your enemies know you by flame and fear. They pray to be delivered from your wrath, but the heavens are silent.
Harald Hardrada: Good! You punish your enemies with fire and sword until they tremble at the sound of your name. Pity you were not born a Viking.	Your enemies make war on you, but you do not plunder their lands in retribution. Is it out of cowardice? Or an excess of politeness?
Harald Hardrada: You lack the courage to punish your enemies, and you lack the fortitude to make their lands an ashen wasteland. Pathetic.
Populous 	The number of people living in your empire is truly impressive. 	There are so few people living in your empire. It must be hard to get anything done.
Preserver of the Union 	Is it not easier to agree, when we both defer to justice. 	A House divided against itself cannot stand. We hope you follow our lead in advancing the cause of liberty.
Queen of the Nile 	I am only interested in people worthy of my time. You are obviously one of them. 	You are not worthy to bask in our presence. Your power is as fragile as your army is weak.
Raven Banner 	The quickest way to success is to levy the strengths of your little allies, wouldn't you agree? 	They say you pay your auxiliaries in patriotism. That and two pennies will buy them a beer.
Saint 	I see you have found God's wisdom, and that you share it with the world. Good. 	Everyday, I pray for your soul, that you find the wisdom of the Lord.
Sakoku 	Strong borders make for good neighbors. 	We can manage our own affairs. Without you.
Sapa Inca 	You recognize that the Inca are the masters of the heights. This shows wisdom on your part. 	The Inca are masters of the mountains. Do not challenge me on this ground. Be content with the lowlands.
Scourge of Rome 	So many troops! Ha ha! Look at them all! 	Your lands are quiet and peaceful. And weak.
Short Life of Glory 	I hope we never meet in battle, it would be a shame to lose such a worthy foe. 	How do you intend on growing your empire if you refuse to fight for your people?!
Sicilian Wars 	May prosperity come to your cities—the ones away from the coast. 	We have no interest in the land—that is for you to claim—but the seas and the shores are Phoenician.
Sihai 	Just as we cultivate the land before it bears fruit, so we cultivate the lesser peoples so that they might join with us. 	Is that all you are, a killer of the wild folk?
Solitary 	See that you continue to stay away from the Mayan homeland. For now the stars shine in your favor. 	The stars themselves look away from your deeds. Do not approach my lands.
Spirit of Tucapel 	Your people take great pride in where they come from. It is clear they follow your lead. 	How do you lead such a boring people? Do they follow the example you set?
Standing Army 	I love a leader who is surrounded by an impressive military. 	You have so few troops. Aren't you scared for your life?
Sultan of Egypt and Syria 	Faith means peace, where the strong defend the weak. 	My sword shall stand between you and the holy places of the world. Your touch will not defile them.
Sumptuous Finery 	All of my lovers are positively murdering each other to get some of your goods. What fun! 	How can my Flying Squadron critique your supposed luxuries if you don't even send me any?
Sun Never Sets 	Please accept my warmest thanks for your kind endeavors on the continent we share. 	You tread on dangerous waters in the face of England and her loyal colonies.
Sycophant 	Our poets and philosophers hold up your civilization as the light of the world, and I must agree with them.
Gorgo: Yes! Your excellence—your Arete—is truly worthy of emulation!
Pedro II: I look upon your civilization and its works, and I understand why your people are praised in song and story around the world.
Peter: Your civilization is the model on which I will build the new Russia!
Philip II: What could be better than to surround oneself with such poets and playwrights, saints and scientists? I have always thought that a great nation is a manifestation of the blessings of the Almighty.
Qin Shi Huang: Your personal magnificence is reflected in the glory of your civilization!
Teddy Roosevelt: The people of every civilization look upon you with wonder. You are an inspiration to the world!	Aspire to be a worthier example to the rest of the world! Your people will love you if you lead them to glory.
Sympathizer 	Our civilization admires the way you're bearing your current trouble with hardiness and resolve.
Catherine de Medici: I am sending you a gift: A ring inscribed with “This Too Shall Pass.” May it comfort you in times of trouble.
Genghis Khan: I admire the way you rule. I appreciate not having to come up with a complicated strategy to conquer your civilization.
Jadwiga: Your heart must ache for the suffering of your people. Poland understands your plight, and we pray for you.
Jayavarman VII: You are tied to the cycle of samsara now. I pray unceasingly that you will soon be liberated, and at peace.
Lautaro: You, too, know what it means to resist the cruelty of the powerful. Mapuche respect what you do.
Peter: A lesser leader would be unable to do what you are doing: Keeping firm control of your civilization in a time of crisis.
Victoria: You bear the suffering of your Dark Age with such nobility! I wish my subjects were as stalwart as you!	Your people's "glorious age" looks a lot like gloating to me. I look forward to the day of your fall.
Technophile 	I am impressed with the depth of your scientific research. 	You are not spending much time on research. How will your people keep up?
The Bull Moose 	I hear you've got some capital hiking over there. 	We are defined by how we live with our surroundings. Remember that.
Tlatoani 	We have more in common, than not. You follow Tlacaelel's words. 	You have much that I do not! Do you want your people taken as slaves?
Trade Agreement 	Thank you for your interest in a trade agreement with England. 	Brass shines as fair to the ignorant as gold to the goldsmiths.
Turtler 	Good fences make good neighbors, and good defenses a peaceable kingdom. I am pleased you are content to protect your lands.
Hojo Tokimune: Ambition for territory is the seed that ruins dynasties. I am pleased you seek only to defend your lands.	In your rush to war and conquest, you set events into motion whose course you cannot foresee. Better to stay home and protect, than go abroad and conquer.
Hojo Tokimune: I perceive your conquests with concern, but not with fear. Know that if you invade Japan, the very wind and seas will come to our aid.
Wall of 10,000 Li 	It is good that you do not try to compete with the glorious empire of Qin. Our wonders are inimitable. 	What need do you have for wonder when you can look upon the works of the Middle Kingdom?
Westernizer 	Yours is a society to emulate. Arts, sciences… what don't you have? 	Your people are starved for knowledge and beauty, and yet you ignore science and art. Why?
With Your Shield Or On It 	You would make a good Spartan… resilient, strong, brave. 	Are you such a coward, to avoid bloodshed? To yield so easily? Where is your honor?
Wonder Obsessed 	It makes me happy that you leave the wonder building to us. 	Do you not realize that we are supposed to be the preeminent builders of wonders?
Yinding 	We only deal with those who have something to offer. Like you, for instance. 	We must seek wealth, from the ox-driver to the king.
Zealot 	How happy is the land whose ruler follows the one true religion, and protects the souls of his people!
Montezuma: It is good that you have chosen the right faith. You probably did so from admiration of me. That is understandable.
Pedro II: You know that a good ruler leads the souls of his people on the right course, and in doing so brings the blessings of heaven to them.	Blasphemy and heresy spill from the lips of your subjects! You must restore your people's souls by restoring the true religion!
Montezuma: I am making a gift of my religion to you! Why do you not accept? You will shame yourself, and face destruction in the afterlife!
Pedro II: I fear you have mistaken spreading religious infidelity for a lively carnival of ideas.
