Civilization V Leader | Gajah Mada of Indonesia

Gajah Mada (loosely translated as the "Elephant General"), hero to the people of Indonesia and symbol of national pride and patriotism, served as Prime Minister of the Majapahit Empire of Indonesia for the better part of the 14th Century AD. Although little information exists as to his early life and upbringing, it is known that he was born a commoner, rising to power based solely on his intellect and cunning - along with a renowned ferocity in battle. Serving as a royal bodyguard, Gajah Mada was instrumental in quashing a rebellion against his king, and was rewarded with a path to joining the ruling elite. Eventually rising to the position of Prime Minister, Gajah Mada led the Majapahit Empire to great success in conquering many of the neighboring island kingdoms, becoming the first to unite much of the territory that encompasses modern Indonesia.

yes, this Indonesia was not formed yet, so of course he speaks the proper language, which is Old Javanese. love the actor voice, he depicts Gajah Mada precisely, man with high ambition surely have heavy-growl voice.

[@destianpatrianagara1119]

it's sanskrit i think. cause most indonesian was spoke it at that period

[@masn4nox]

Not sanskrit. But Old Javanesse. At this era Sanskirt was not used anymore. Actually sanskrit was used for official an religion purpose, and ing kingdoms older than Majapahit (Hindu Mataram, Tarumanagara, Kahuripan, etc.). While for everyday purpose, they use the old form of Javanesse Language. In Majapahit era, the language for offical is not Sanskrit but, used Kawi language, which is derivative of sanskrit and mixed with polite form of old javanesse. And of course for everyday purpose they still used Old Javanesse Language

Gajah Mada (translated as Elephant General) (circa 1290 - circa 1364) was, according to Javanese old manuscripts, poems and mythology, a powerful military leader and mahapatih or prime minister of the Majapahit Empire, credited with bringing the empire to its peak of glory. He delivered an oath called Sumpah Palapa, in which he vowed not to eat any food containing spices until he had conquered all of the Southeast Asian archipelago of Nusantara for Majapahit. In modern Indonesia, he serves as an important national hero and a symbol of patriotism.

Javanese language is different to Indonesian. The official language, Indonesian, is actually a variant of the Malay language (Bahasa Melayu). It all began when the Dutch colonial government made the Malay language the official language of the Dutch East Indies. After Indonesia was independent, the Malay language continued to become the official language and since then it developed into Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia). Well, having Indonesian as the national language is Indonesia's greatest asset. Not only people from different parts of Indonesia can understand each other under a unified national language, but Indonesians will also be able to easily communicate with Malaysians, Bruneians, Singaporeans and Southern Thais (who are mostly Malays) and with some southern Filipino Muslims too.

[@antaratmapradyumna6368]

Even in java itself during that time. The peasants saw the majapahit monarchs, their emperors and empresses, as demigods. Sinelir and Rajasa Dynasties (two clans of the Singashari kingdom and the Majapahit Empire) were different from the previous javanese dynasties as they considered themselves as Devaraja (Godking) its a practice that mixed hinduism and ancestral worships that native to the local acient javan faith The moment the majapahit monarch died, they would be entombed and deified as a personification of hindu gods.

As an nothing, i want indonesian great again

[@royssche]

as Modern Javanese, I only recognize 2 words from what Gajah Mada said there - "Babarno" (Explain it)... it's a rude word, "Babaraken" is more common today - "Opo?" (What?) still widely used by javanese today

[@evanrayhanr]

I proud to be indonesian

I think this depiction is the most intimidating and scary among the other Civ 5 Leaders.. look at his body size, stance, movement, manvoice and nasty kris..! he looks like ready to jump at us even before we declare war..! hate to imagine that kris stabbing me.. it's laced with venom.. urgh
