I recently got a domination victory is Civ 4 without going to war with ANYONE. It was on a duel/18 civ/Pangea map, and I only built my capital city. Yay, culture flipping!!!
Anyway, here's my strategy:
1. Get as many monasteries as you can before researching scientific method and if possible, delay research of scientific method.
2. Build tons and tons of culture buildings, and when a city flips to you, do the same with it. Also build missionaries after you build the monasteries to get as many religions in as many of your cities as you can.
3. Great Artists can be useful for creating specialists as well as great works. Especially since they give you +12 culture/turn.
4. Wonders to go for are Parthenon, Notre Dame, Hermitage, and other Great Artist wonders.
5. You may need to reload until you get a good strating place; a.k.a one that is in or near the center of the island horizontally.
With this strategy I had 4 civ's defeated due to their only city defecting to me and two other cities already had one revolt. I was Frederick (Phi/Cre) so I was pretty geared towards culture. If anyone would like to post reactions or additions to this strategy, please do.
