When in doubt, reboot.
I agree with the other comrades that say the Arab Lady must be removed. We have an opportunity to let the Red Army march.

Let the Red Army roll.
Besides Isabella's photo (or head if you prefer) looks great on the trophy room of the Great Soviet Nation.
Keeping ladies heads as trophies was a Mongol thing. Perhaps we encase Arab Lady in Bronze and place her in the Religion Holy City as a "Museum" piece to disuade the Soviet people from getting any foolish ideas about following anymore of these superstitions!

Without looking that close it appears there is ALOT on jungle to here north plus some Barb cities. Here power numbers are about the same as Lenin's which is not saying that much right now. Given her fanaticism over religions it's likely she still does not have Iron Working and her choices are limited.
Comrade, what about giving those rogue barbarians more structure in their lives, and claiming their cities in the jungle for soviet assimilation? They can make nice gold donation to the soviet treasury, and then be sent to the labor camps to help prepare troops for decimation of religious arab lady.
They also would help contribute more benefit from the giant soviet monument and lighthouse that have been constructed if they are coastal barbarian cities.

Yes, this is a noble and worthwhile task. But this misled Stupid Spanish Arab lady is in our way and may try and convert these barbarians to her faith before we can assimilate, I mean liberate, them. The more I think of the, the more infuriated and determined I become. I tell you Comrades, this Arab Lady is no good!
First off, you should fogbust/spawnbust. No point in losing cities when building 2 extra archers/axemen could have prevented any barbs from showing up.
Otherwise, going well. You'll have to eventually figure out which islands you'll want your palace and forbidden palace on, but maybe that can wait for seeing what else is out there.

Comrade lenin: Death of the Zealot
Come Comrades, we have much to discuss.
We start by making decision on what to do with the Capitilist Pig MArco Polo
And pig he is. We send him to pig farm where he can wallow with his kin and provide food and gold for Soviet Union!. This is good, let's hope no more of these stinking capitilists show up.
Arghhhhhhh!!!!!! Another capitlist, Jacques Cartier! We chain him also to farms in Moscow, let the pigs keep each other company!
NOW, after we finish dealing with these Great Merchants, and before we "deal" with these fanatics let's look at the techpath
Compass/Machinery/Optics/Aesthetics/polytheism/Literature and start Civil Service!
NOW, onto stupid Arabia
We have had enough of you fanatic talk Lady
Time to liberate the Arab people from this religious oppression and bring them into Soviet Oppression!
We start by moving against the capital of Medina
And soon
A decent haul, but no shrine.
we then move against Mecca which is on a hill
This time we get a shrine!
Arabia is down to one city, at which time
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, a Great Engineer named Blaise Pacal is born. Now this is a great person who can help Soviet Union proper. We set up nice shop for him to wait until he is summoned.
Our final assault comes against Damascus which is on a hill but has a much needed happiness resource in ivory!
And soon
Adios Senora Isabella from Arabia.
So now Comrades we are isolated although we do have Optics and are preparing some caravels.
Also at the end of the Arabian war we find Ivan the Terrible was born
Comrades, I feel this game is our destiny! we settled him Kursk.
Now we decide to consider moving Capital as Moscow is purely a Great Person Farm. So we build it in the center of largest continent with most cities
I think Forbidden Palace goes at northen most of continent, but we shall see.
Next we finish Literature and summon Blaise Pacal
He is a good Soviet, dedicating his life to constructing the Great Library for Soviet Union. Unfortunately he "fell" off scaffolding just before it finished and Soviet people never heard of his name. Still
Comrades, I personally have fond memories of Blaise Pacal when I see this building! It is unfirtunate his name is forgotten amongst Soviet people now, and they actually think myself Vladimir Lenin built it! They are so happy I cannot disappoint them, happiness is enough of a problem in Soviet Life.
And now that Caravel comes 1 turn away from discovering new leader
We decide to save!
We look at demographics
Great Lighthouse is helping us much, but production is bad. Comrades, we must work on this. Perhaps it is time to forget the lash and adopt Caste system to get more use out of workshops???
Cities
And Map
Comrades, we are doing decent. But there is much more land to settle and we need production AND some Great People. Soviet people have gotten soft relying on Great Lighthosue and Colossus, we need more. We need more improvements, we need more cities, we need more lands!!!!
The time of war and great wonders is over. We need Great People, iprovements, and land!!!!!

Go north young man, go north!
I can't believe you actually conquered Arabia with that mini-stack!

Way to go comrade - one less arabian zealot is always good for Soviet Republic. You make me sad as I waited much longer to dispose of her.
And palace location was excellent choice - in fact, two tiles to the west of my palace city. Perhaps all role play shadowers channel comrade Lenin in much the same way. Still much land to explore, and most importantly, what other meetings shall be made soon with Soviet caravels?

I agree on settling the main island. So much space for the glorious Russian empire. Look up, comrade Lenin, look up and see the beauty of that land. We, the people, do so agree with more land and improvements. Lets show the world the power of the russian people.

Every piece of land must be settled because land is equal in value in the eyes of the Great Soviet Nation. It just might be that certain areas happens to be more equal than others but that is only a minor detail which isn't worth mentioning to those settlers heading to areas that aren't the most equal 
So, Comrade Lenin got it right settle, settle and settle.

Comrade Lenin: The Rise of Soviet Technology
Welcome back Comrades, there is much to discuss about the Soviet Union and it's future!
We start by adopting simple strategy, be acquire technologies, we work towards production, and we expand Soviet Union. Very successful!
First we take remaining forces from Arabian war
And start heading towards Barbarian cities to teach them civilization.
We also meet next leader
Agustus the Viking! Not a very terrifying combination, perhaps we can make nice trade.
Indeed! Agustus is happy with Soviet Union and we open borders.
Meanwhile our army captured Barbarian city
Which we rename with proper Soviet name.
Agustus returns and we make nice trade again.
Monotheism is useless but harmless, so we take.
And soon we find that this Tacitus declares we are only mediocre in technology
I tell you Comrades, this is unacceptible. We pound on Soviet Scientists harshly to increase beaker production!!!
And before we go further, we should note our techpath: Civil Service/Astronomy (ah, see later Comrades!)/Paper/Education/Meditation/Philosophy/Printing Press/Liberalism.
Now, we meet next leader
Mehmed of America! He does not want to make trade yet, so we simply open borders.
At same time, next Great Person is born in Moscow
Very interesting! We have not yet finished researching Civil Service, so he can partly discover Astronomy! We use him to research half of it, and since this Hypatia Great Scientist did not finish the job, it fell to your's truely!
Next leader is
Napolean of the HRE. Now this is NOT a combination we are fond of!
However, he does offer good trade.
So we open borders.
Next leader we meet is
Hannibal of Rome, funny historical combination, yes!
We open borders with him too and make trade
Leaving us at
Not bad comrades, not bad. Last leader is Wang Kong of England who is at war with Hannibal of Rome so we refuse open border there!
We finish exploring north area and find a few nice happiness resources. As you will soon see these are rather pointless!
We readjust civics
I should say we finish Palace in Novrogod, which increase our gold from 9 to 84 without adjusting slider. This helps Soviet beaker output and get's us moving in direction we want!
At this time we are also more agressively settling cities, as shown here
Also this land mass has Heroic Epic in Kusck and Forbidden Palace in Petrograd.
Now the relocation of Palace and contruction of Forbidden Palace helps to a certain degree, but also this
Prior to Atronomy
AND after Astronomy
This produces ALOT of commerce for Soviet Union, even after losing benefit of Colossus wonder (however, people decide to keep this great Monument in honor of Comrade Lenin!).
Even better, it opens up the options of trading resources!
Which eliminates our problem of happiness (for now!). Still we are a war and advanced techs away from serious happiness problems again!
This ends first great Events of this segment
To Be Continued....

Astronomy is very important tech - very important indeed. Winning the astronomy race means vaulting ahead of silly Carthaginian Romans and Roman Vikings.
Don't you love the combos? Hannibal of Rome seems like a very powerful combo, as does Napoleon of HRE. That was one reason for loving this game - such interesting combinations.

Comrade Lenin: The Rise of Soviet Technology continued
But comrades, I must inform you of more bad news.
Yes, another filthy capitalist has crept into our city of Moscow. We sent this Zang Qin to same pig farm that other capitalists went, providing food for great Person farm and extra gold for Soviet treasury, while their names do not past earshot of the pig farm.
We then got a true Great Person inAnthony Van Leeuwenhoek who researched ALMOST of education for us!
Leaving us at
Most excellent Comrades!! If we can only backfill littel bit for Guilds and Engineering.
Good, good. And we have map shoing Viking and American lands
But then we cringe when we find out
But I should not complain Comrades, we are member at least and cannot have our open borders canceled by the AP. We simply ignored it and abstained!
We had some issue with other continents canceling resource trades, but we find they give us 2 happy reosurces for 1 ivory! Very good deal as we are quickly outgrowing need for War Elephants!
The Hannibal of Rome gives us other fillin trade
Which now bolsters our workshops by 1 hammer!
we were then able to fillin a few more trades with philosophy
Comrades, we have pulled off very shrewd trades here, getting alot of backfilling techs without ever needing to trade away big techs like education and astronomy!
But before we finish liberalism, yet another Great Scientists Eudlid is born to Soviet Union.
So we get great idea! We us Euclid to research Printing Press (to publish Pravda!) and we finish manually researching it!
And we continue to acquire more barbarian cities
And we are the first to
So what are out choices Comrades
Ah, we take Scientific Method! Sure it obsoletes Great Library but who cares. We are ONE tech away from Communism and the powerful State Property!
We saved here, thinking perhaps we should research Gunpowder first before Communism. Hannibal of Rome has Astronomy and I do not trust him!
So let's see the Status of the Soviet Union, in all it's glory!
Cities
As you see, we added mnay! More are needed, and we also need many improvements!
Our GP farm!
Our capital
And the map
Yes, more land to be settled! We also have access to much oil!
Technology
And finally demographics
Ah, soviet Union is tops in production!
So there we are comrades. Where do we go from here???? Definitely industrialization era before anything, then it's a decision as to whether we use Soviet Production for Sputnik OR the Red Army (or both
).

).It's going good now. I's say go communism right away. Don't worry about gunpowder. Knights/macemen are just as good defending as musketeers.
Get communism, build Kremlin. Then I don't remember the exact tech path, but will you be able to get biology now? If so, then I'd say go for that, and get some sweet Kremlin-assisted whipping to get all the infrastructure built in your cities.
Then, grow these cities like crazy, all with workshops, and see how the situation is. I think you might even end up with too many good production cities to do space (you really only need 5-6 for that), so I'd say SP workshops/watermills, bio farms, Kremlin whipping, and build up a massive army to take out the rest of the world.

Was there ever any doubt that Lenin would rise to become a great beacon of enlightenment for the soviet people?
Having turned the misguided Arabs away from the opiatic entrapment of the worshiping of extra-earthly god-beings, and thus molded them into true soviet proletars;
having tamed the land, charted the world and mastered the knowledge of efficiency and of the hammer and sickle;
the task at hand will be no less daunting than what has come to pass, but is is surely the destiny that will drive the soviet people to greatness, and it must be forthrightly implemented most passionately, so that the worker may for ever be freed from that chains of evil Bourgeois: the soviet union must unite the world under the red flag!
This means that all nations (exception for mother russia if needed) must abolish all capitalistic and wasteful civics or the nation's worker class must overthrow their government and become vassals to the empire. Failing that, Mother Russia must intervene and declare perpetual war on said nation until it is either destroyed or vassalaged.
