Gandhi 3

INDIA surely. IIRC Mahatma Gandhi never actually was a RULER, but maybe it’s close enough for Civ purposes? And there have been prime ministers since then with that surname.

For the third word, perhaps OLIVE as in olive branch and non-violence? Nothing else strikes me immediately.

India is the obvious word, but the other two I'm less sure about. After that, olive (branch) for peace and London for liberation from the British Empire?

INDIA is a lock.
RULER, probably. Not that Mahatma Gandhi ever held office, but he's been a leader in every Civilization game I think.
STAFF, maybe? As in the walking stick that he is pictured carrying.

The other obvious connection is LONDON. Gandhi studied law in England, campaigned against British colonial rule, participated in negotiations in London. But INDIA/RULER/LONDON is better clued by Raj 3 or Colonial 3 or other such words.

After reading spoilers: 
Yes, Indira Gandhi was prime minister. So that supports RULER. 
I didn't think of OLIVE and it is a second order connection, from olive branch to peace to Gandhi. So I prefer STAFF > OLIVE > LONDON.

I’m shocked that I missed the LONDON connection, but I think I’d still prefer to point to RULER first.

STAFF came to me after I posted, and I prefer OLIVE over LONDON. RULER might be the best one of them all though.

RULER > STAFF > OLIVE > LONDON for me.

Yeah, while there's an link with LONDON, the link is that Gandhi was anti-LONDON.
