For example, The special victory card "Pele" can be comprehend of the color of world cup and the national flag of Brazil are Yellow and Green.

what about the card below:

Emperor Meiji
Charles Darwen
Caresse Crosby
Gene Roddenberry
Kim Yu-Na
Shigeru Miyamoto
Jackie Chan
Social Net Working(EotP)

Roddenberry's special victory condition is easy: it references the USS Enterprise from Star Trek.

Shigeru Miyamoto is a reference to Super Mario Bros. If you finished a level with the last digit of the timer reading 1, 3, or 6, fireworks appeared, and you scored bonus points.

[first]

This is merely my guess, so feel free to give a better suggestion.

Emperor Meiji : "If you would meld a card of value 10 and you have top cards of values 9 and 8 on your board, instead you win."
According to wikipedia, "Emperor Meiji, the 122nd emperor of Japan, presided over a time of rapid change in Japan, characterised by Japan's industrial revolution." I guess you win by advancing your empire all the way to 10, though it may have a deeper meaning.

Charles Darwin : "If you would claim an achievement, first if no other player has as many or more achievements as you, instead you win."
He proposed the theory of natural selection. The strongest (most achievements) survives.

Caresse Crosby : "If you would splay a fifth color left, instead you win."
She is the inventor of modern brassiere. You tuck a piece of clothes (leave) to adjust (splay) your bust until they fit.

Kim Yu-Na : "If you would score a card with a castle, instead you win."
A female South Korean figure skater. You could win by scoring her Ice Skates.

Jackie Chan : "If an opponent would win, first score all other top figures in play. If you now have the most points, you win instead."
You force your opponent to have a final one-to-one showdown with Jackie Chan on scores.

Social Networking - "If you have fewer factory, fewer crown, and fewer castle icons than each other player, you win."
These icons represent industry, authority, and military respectively. If your people are oppressed by them, they will form a powerful social network and fight back.

I think Jackie Chan is not about a 1 on 1.  In his movies a lot of times it gets to when the situation seems very bleak (if an opponent would win..), but then he beats up (scores) a lot of people (figures) and saves the day (wins) in the final hour.

I wonder how often someone is able to pull this one off.  It's like a 10000:1 shot.

Twice so far this month (~4500 games; ~1500 games using Figures).

Shigeru Miyamoto:

The icon of that card is from the game 'The legend of Zelda';

He is a famous developer and now a directive of Nintendo, sometimes appear in press conference or open events such as E3, and of course he developed the game;

1,3,6 are the triangular number sequence who matches that icon, probably Carl really love that game lol

[Drab Emordnilap]

1,3,6 are the triangular number sequence who matches that icon, probably Carl really love that game lol

Pretty sure it's the timer 1s digit bonus from Super Mario Bros.

Yeah, the icon is even a clock.  Zelda triforce would be crown for color or castles for power.

Yeah it is supposed to be difficult, but if you somehow get Enterprise into your forecast, you can hold off and hope you get lucky during Age 9. Meld Gene Roddenberry, meld out of forecast Enterprise and boom!
