Kandake is a form of government from the Gifts of the Nile scenario in Civilization VI. It is unlocked after discovering the Royal Dynasties civic.
Civilopedia entry[]
The rulers of Nubia practiced co-rulership between royal husband and wife. A kandake, or queen, had as much or more power as her husband, with the ultimate form of veto—should the king displease the kandake, she could order him to take his own life.
Trivia[]
- The background of the artwork of Kandake features a ram-headed sphinx similar to those at Karnak, near Luxor.
