The Shawnee people represent various Shawnee tribes, an Exploration Age civilization in Civilization VII. They are available with the Tecumseh and Shawnee Pack, which will be released simultaneously with the initial game on February 11, 2025.

The Shawnee's civilization ability is Nepekifaki, which grants a Food bonus for Settlements on Navigable Rivers and a Food penalty for those that are not. Their associated wonder is the Serpent Mound, and their unique components are as follows:

• Unique units: Kispoko Nena’to (military), Hoceepkileni (civilian)
• Unique improvement: Mawaskawe Skote
• Unique civics: Wyehi Simekofi, Miyaska Latoweki, Telwatiki, Maleki Kintake

Intro

An Algonquian-speaking people originally from what is now the eastern United States, the Shawnee fought hard to keep their land and traditions. Their fiercest battles were with the United States, as the new nation pushed westward. Seeking to build a coalition of indigenous people to form a united front, the Shawnee established a settlement at Prophetstown, but the US Army loomed on the horizon.

Trivia

• The Shawnee civilization's symbol is a star and a pair of leaves, as depicted on the tribal flag of the Loyal Shawnee of Oklahoma.
• The Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma greatly assisted in the development of the civilization, providing input on the language, music and material culture of the Shawnee. As such, the current chief of the nation Ben Barnes and language department technical specialist Karl Meyer were invited to the Tecumseh gameplay showcase livestream as special guests.
