Thanks. I knew the second part, just not the probabilities. Not a huge change, but almost twice as likely for a Scientific civ than a non-science civ. (My favorites are Sci civs.)
I think if you look at the GoG descriptions of those games, you'll see that most of them are Win10 compatible. That seems to be typical.
That is technically not true. I am writing from a Desktop with Windows 10 Professional without such an account and i also have a Laptop with preinstalled Windows 10 Home without such an account. But it is true that Microsoft very much pushes User towards such an account.
In my experience, yes, the city -- for example, Rotterdam -- would have a mixture of Dutch and Aztec citizens. Depending on how long ago the city changed hands. As I recall, if your (Byzantine) culture is greater than the Aztecs, over some number of turns the foreign citizens will convert to your nationality. If the Aztecs only defeated the Dutch 10 turns ago, one would definitely see Dutch citizens. If Rotterdam has been owned by the Aztecs for 50 turns or more, then the citizens should be all Aztec.
This is in contradiction to my understanding of assimilation. Assimilation depends solely on your type of government. As a republic each turn each foreign citizen in your cities has a chance of 2% to convert. Same is true for monarchy an fascism. For communism and democracy the chance is 4%, for feudalism 3% and for despotism and anarchy it is 1%.
No, you should be fine in terms of your trading reputation.
You can always break a deal by disconnecting from the trade network, although that's far easier to do in earlier eras.
This does come at the risk of ruining your trading reputation. A declaration of war is simpler and safer as it usually only involves trades with one nation.
