Coupla bits o' info
New (I think) images I found using Gnucleus. Looks like ads, but they provide info.
Bismarck is in as the leader of the Germans, and that was his ugly pus in the screenshot.
Hiawatha is the Iroquois leader.
Take a gander at the Aztec leader.

A few weeks ago we had a funny, little thread going on about some of these pics, just to let you know.

Hey, I don't think anyone has seen those last two you posted. That's some pretty cool stuff. Do you have any more?

Aztec leader is undoubtably Montezuma.

I've never seen a Moctezuma as leader of the Aztecs anywhere and a quick search on the internet turned up nothing related to the Aztecs. It may just be a variation in spelling, but Montezuma is used exclusively here.

I'm with Juandalf. Montezuma comes as an ugly misspelling to me, I've always seen it written Moctezuma, and it's the name the Spanish Conquistadors gave to him, as far as I know...

Well the Marine Corps hymn has always spelled it as Montezuma, and if it was good enough for Chesty Puller, it's good enough for me. PC and the feelings of other cultures be damned
Besides, spring breaking college kids would be culturally sensitive enough to spell Montezuma's Revenge correctly wouldn't they

In all mexican books of history he is named Moctezuma, even the makers of beers  ( Tecate and anothers) are from "Cervecería Moctezuma")

Gotta agree with the Latin American posters on this one. Moctezuma is the spelling, Montezuma is an American bastardization of the spelling. Come to think of it, we Americans do that for all kinds of words, so I don't really care one way or the other.

Hey just because it takes an American to tell a Mexican how to properly spell the names of former Mexico City leaders does not mean we bastardize words
When was the last time Americans mispelled foreign names because we were too ignorant to try to spell them right? We would NEVER be that arrogant (All references to Ellis Island will be ignored )
