Also, establish an embassy in germany (tech leader), and steal a tech (steam power)
1515 Destroy the Americans
1520 I notice that of ones who know steam power, only spain has coal (just one) so russia and germany don't have any. Korea has two but is early MA and same with Rome.
1550 ibt Tacitus's most powerful nations list: Aztecs, germans, spanish, russians, koreans, Romans
1560 steal industrialization from Germany; trade industrialization to Russia for Democracy and WM

1620 ibt Russia lands 2 knights in our territory
1625 demand russia remove troops-she declares war-kill her knights then sign mmp with germany (cause Russia already has one with her) establish embassy in spain and sign MMP for 311 gold (now sit at home and wait for Russia to attack then send my stack of doom to her)
ibt Germany and Spain dow on Russia - the people love us for our cleverness and build an addition to our palace
1630 wake our stack of doom (meant for germany - but plans change)
ibt apparently Russia struck alliances with korea vs spain and rome vs Germany
1640 ibt spain lands troops on our continent - no reason to do so (we need a back-stab smilie)
1645 demand she remove her troops-she dow on us
we dow on Rome so germany won't get her coal
ibt spain captures Huexolta (valiantly defended by a 3 hp jaguar warrior - almost won against spain's conquistador)

1700ibt lost 3 russian cities to spain
(they must be in a GA as even with my other continent producing cavs, I can't keep up with her troop production)
1705 peace with spain (2 turns before MMP would expire) after retaking one city; we received 380 g for peace.
1735 Researched Medicine (on path for ToE) and trade Spain medicine for refining +587g
1770 stole replaceable parts from Spanish (only had 1g left so need to build treasury to upgrade musketmen) Actually was hoping to fail and have spain declare on us. Now will build treasury and upgrade before dow
1772 After one turn of a boring game while waiting we check with our military advisor and we're strong compared to Spanish. We will demand removal of her troops from our territory so hopefully she will dow on us. (it worked) By the end of the year, we have purged our territory of Spanish trespassers and have taken Moscow and Tblisi from the Spanish (they are the two former Russian cities she took from us earlier that we couldn't get back before peace)
1774 capture Smolnesk with
Universal Suffrage!
1776 capture Woson
1780 capture pamplona; capture cuidad de la luna
1784 ibt cuidad de la luna flipped
took some healing units, but won't cripple us, will just delay us 1 or 2 turns
1786 recapture cuidad de la luna, only garrison with 1 troop, leave others outside blocking border with spain
ibt somehow a single cav gets through and recaptures it -- then Germany captures it
(those two have been at war since 1625)
1788 send troops on to barcelona and capture it and get
Newton's ,
but it's in a totally unproductive city
1790 Germany is in danger of getting too many of "our" Spainish cities so we cancel rop with germany, hoping spain will recapture cuidad de la luna and we can retake it (doesn't work
but Germany doesn't get anymore Spanish cities)
1792 capture zaragoza

1806 ibt complete ToE, culture expansion in 1 city triggering a Domination win
Firaxis score 3820 and we are known as Montezuma the Magnificent (even with the blunder in the Middle Ages)
Note: Watching the replay at the end of the game, it looks like Germany had declared an early war on Korea and captured their capital, which crippled them in my game.
