Description:

Play as the Jewish Malik of Yemen, Dhu Nuwas; in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI.

Himyar was once the premier Yemenite kingdom in antiquity once it inherited the legacy of Saba/Sheba through the Marib Dam. Upon the shores that would one day be known as al-Mukha, the staple port of coffee, the Himyarites would take command of the lucrative incense trade that fed the religious rites of the Graeco-Roman world. This dominance made them the envy of other Semitic powers, in particular the Aksumites of the Horn of Africa. Aksum was a strange land of monoliths and kings that occupied southern Arabia at least twice. The former around the 300s (potentially), the latter deep into the 500s when the Eastern Romans were about to engage in a cataclysmic clash against the Sasanids of Persia. Arabic legends state that the Himyarite maliks (kings) embraced Jewish monotheism and promptly brought Christians to sword, awakening a holy fury in both Constantinople and Aksum. Himyarites would swap hands between Aksumites and the Persians as the century concluded, but the Arab Himyarites would have the last laugh with the emergence of the Rashidun Caliphate.
