Im Turkish and as someone who doesnt have any single bound with Britain, this song sounds so satisfying and calm to listen to in my room when everyone is sleeping. I think its because the music is universial, no matter where you are from you just enjoy it.
It's a very powerful song espeically in the info age. It starts as though we are diminished, lamenting the past only to burst forth once more with a chance to be great once more as we once again reclaim our place then calmy settle into our new place content that everything is as they should be.
this is one of my favorite tunes in the world. I'm so happy it's the England there for civ 6. the medieval and atomic versions are my favorite. the medieval one is so lively and makes me feel like I'm in a busy tavern in merry old England. the atomic version gives me chills, and seems to perfectly represent British stoicism and dignity, even in the face of inevitable decline. It makes me think of both Britain's lost empire, and the unyielding bravery of their ordinary citizens in the face of the Nazi bombings during WWII. I'm not British, but I recognize and respect how much their civilization has contributed to the world.
As a french, i have to admit the world would have been blend without England. Nothing greater than our rivalry together. We are like Brothers after all: always fighting but we would never live without the other
"Your Highness, the space teapots are now in formation over the Channel" "Good. At dawn, Catherine de Medici shall tremble as Paris drowns in dregs. God save the Queen? God save THEM from US!"

This music is IMO one of the best themes in the game IF NOT the best one straight up. And now that England is getting a massive buff in the Gathering Storm expansion... God save the Queen !
Playing this England suite as UK in Hearts of Iron 4 gives you the feeling that the British Empire stands at a crossroads, with the inevitable global conflict making its waves.
Few pieces of media can make me drop tears but this piece achieves it, and I have absolutely no relation to England whatsoever, I just like the composition that much, very emotional and the arrangement of course
Currently playing a game as England on a Terra map. All players start one the same continent, the other continent has nothing but city states and barbarians. Having a blast colonizing the coasts of the “New World” to extract exotic resources and then sending my redcoats on “expeditions“ to explore the interior.
I never noticed until now that the Atomic Era theme has a similar vibe to Jerusalem. The crescendo is about 30 seconds before the end of the song. It's almost like it's faintly embarrassed for getting so worked up and the last few chords are it quietly apologising and shuffling off stage right. Very British, spot on.
I hated this song when I was a kid, but I love it now. So pretty, especially with these instruments and the escalating complexity that comes with each new era.
When you were a kid? The game came out in 2016 and this comment I'm assuming was made in 2019. That's only a 3 year difference I don't think that long enough to say when I was a kid
I like many others thought this was the theme to civ6. When i did start a game with other civs after ten minutes i fired up Spotify and put ln this is history.
No fear. I just started playing recently and I often deliberately play England just to hear this particular piece of song. I really love it and felt thankful for the anime that made me aware of the traditional song's existence.
We lost our empire, being simple. All that remains are a few islands dotted around the world, like the Falklands/ Malvinas (just to appease the Argentians, but really, I don't really care about the Falklands. Call it wtf you like.)

La música de Civilitzacions siempre ha tenido algo especial para mí. Puede que sea porque es genial o porque he jugado demasiado, o tal vez sean las dos cosas 😅
I just caught the version of "Health to the Company" (3:30) during the medival era. A song about sailors and the sacrifices they make (and the happiness they can also find) oddly and beautifully appropriate.
Imo Victoria's Civ should have been Britain, not England. Many of her bonuses from the redcoat to the museum relate specifically to the British Empire. My ideal would then be to have England, Scotland, and Wales as their own separate, playable Civs in addition to Vic with pre-industrial leaders, like how the Scottish Empire is with Robert the Bruce. (Henry II Plantagenet or Empress Matilda would've been good picks for the English Empire; Eleanor of Aquitaine works. Maybe Owain Gwynedd or Gwenllian ferch Gruffydd for the Welsh Empire?) Would be funny to see them at war with Victoria lol, an alternative British Isles history.
I say this as someone who has played this civ and I can safely say I have over 1027 hours on this game. I like saying the redcoats have a "racist buff" purely for comical reasons when someone asks me about playing Britain, the +10 in foreign continents is very potent
Every time I play earth with realistic starting points, peter takes over Asia, Roosevelt takes over N. America, Pedro takes over S. America, and Tarajan takes over Europe, and all of them do it by the time Victoria gets into the navy. She then tries to sail around the world, only to pull a pouty teen and denounce everyone in the world because they moved quicker than her lmao. And all the while I'm playing as Gandhi minding my own business, eating my curry in new Delhi as the world around me crumbles.
I have over 2000 hours in Civ V, the previous game. It take patience getting into these games. You have to be willing to fail. I didn't like Civ VI at first, as a matter of fact just really got into it like a week ago, but it is a good strategy game. I really love the weather system and how they handle units now. So long story short, is it worth it. Do you like turn based Risk, but with more depth? Then yes worth every penny and the enivitable "One More Turn" Curse. If no, then probably not.
The game is totally epic. It is a deeply immersive journey on the complex progress of the civilizations on earth, with variables like culture, science, tourism, religion and war, of course. All simplified on a surprisingly not so hard to play game.
@@jackgrim6089I have 392 hours in Civ 5 and 32 hours in Civ 6. I feel like Civ 6 is too slow and hard to get used to. Hopefully I'll learn to enjoy it with time, but right now I have more fun with Civ 5.
Its a turn based strategy game. And a 4x game. Explore, expand, exploit, exterminate. you have to take over the world and compete (or work with) the other nations in the world from the dawn of man into the near future.

The industrial version of Scarborough fair is absolutely epic
It just screams exploration, progress and glory. Reflects England's place in the world and their viewpoint at the time. Such a beautiful theme.

it's so dramatic when she denounces you, while furiously swinging her fan and that tune plays, for... simply not liking you?
fact: in Portugal theres a traditional portuguese version of Scarborough Fair check "Roberto Leal - Olhos de Terra, Cabelos de Trigo"
