I am Kristina, queen of Sweden, patron of arts and letters. Jag älskade aldrig makt, och nu saknar jag konsten. I never loved power, and now I am left without art. Konst är ett sätt att uppnå detta, krig mot er ett annat. Sverige skall göra sin del för att hålla världens ondska stången. Art is one way to do this-war with you is another. Sweden will do her part to push back the evils of the world. Sweden will chastise those who threaten the world. Jag förmodar att du bara synar konst i god när den förenar rummets estetik, din borgarbracka! "I presume that you only view art as good when it unites the aesthetics of the room, you philistine dog!") I suppose you think art is great when it ties a room together, you philistine. Jag har nyligen fått ett helt nytt konstverk och jag ska vara värd snart för en konstvisning. I’ve just acquired a new work and will host a viewing soon. She uses formal pronouns ("ni", "era") to address the player, except in her Disapproval line. She speaks Modern Swedish with occasional archaic phrasing/vocabulary. This is a civilization that can conquer the world through soft power. With the Open-Air Museum and the Queen's Bibliotheque, Sweden has excellent Culture and Tourism capabilities. Kristina gives theming bonuses to buildings that fill all their Great Work slots (provided they have at least two slots). Sweden is particularly effective at the World Congress and can exercise additional influence beyond what any other civilization can do. All her buildings with three or more Great Work slots and all her wonders with two or more Great Work slots are automatically themed once their slots are filled, and she is able to build the Queen's Bibliotheque in her Government Plaza. Her leader ability is Minerva of the North. She tries to collect as many Great Works as possible and dislikes other leaders with a large number of Great Works. Once more the world has a need for great patrons of the arts and culture-and it looks to you. Let Sweden be the guiding star for other civilizations to follow. Light up your kingdom with art and music. Minerva of the North, unmatched in learning and wisdom, you chose a life of culture over that of power.
