You have only one thing to know in order to beat Deity, because other way you will be overrun scientifically. You don't have to conquer thousand cities in order to do so, 6-9 owned will be enough. (may have to conquer some anyway, but just a few)
You just have to make sure you have around 100 science beakers in turn 100, 500 in turn 200 and 1500+ when you're about to win.
This is a pretty hard objective as you will need constant growth and expansion where happiness can seem so much limiting. But don't worry. Developers and Let's Players have cleared the path before you : you won't have to count each happiness point, you just have to know that it's possible, as long as you focus your expansion / conquests on new luxuries, which can seem trivial (only 4 happy faces after all) but is not.
You can train in Prince difficulty, because you have to know that if you don't achieve this goal, Deity will be a nightmare. Just remember to build no wonder to approach the Deity philosophy.
If you can't do it in Prince, you know you can't beat Deity. Despite multiple tries, I still fail, and I'm on Prince only. That's it. Beating this game highest difficulty level ties exclusively on how and when you grow. No need to think about other ways too much (like war), it's all a question of management.
Now if you have tips in order to achieve this, please feel free to expose them in this thread. Thanks in advance.
