As probably we all know Venice can't train settlers so their abillity to expand is limited to warfare and city state purcase with great merchants.
Actually Venice don't get great merchants instead they get a super great merchant I can't remember their name so I just call them Venice merchant.
Venice merchant differ from ordinary merchant in two ways.
Most obviously they can purcase a citystate giveing you the city as a pupet and all its units under your controll.
The second thing is that their trade mission is double as strong as ordinary merchant in both gold and influence gain.
Now to the strategy.
You can get two merchants pretty quickly as Venice, one from getting the tech optics and one from liberty policy collective rule.
We want both of these as soon as posible so I suggest a moument first start while teching maybe even beline to optics.
The point is to use both merchant on trade missions which will get us 1600 gold and 120 influence standard speed which I would put in a merchentile CS because we will need happines.
The gold should be spent on millitary to get a big army, I did a test game on king difficulty in which I had 10 units before turn 40 most of them bought with gold.
The point is that this will overcome Venice expansion problem and destroy alot of opponents allowing you for a easy victory.
However I would want help to develope this strategy and sorry for bad Spelling.
