I've been searching around for this on the forums but haven't been able to find a good answer; what determines when a tile flips from one civ to another in C2C? I know there are a lot of changes to how cultures and borders work in C2C but I'm struggling to figure out how it works in my game.
I was playing as the Inca when Portugal declared war on me, and after a long bloody struggle I ended the war after taking a few of his cities. But after ~20 turns of peace, the cities I took are cut off from the rest of my empire by his culture. I pumped all their production into culture and culture buildings, and I was able to get >50% my culture on most of them; but the tiles remained unchanged.

- Both of us have the Open Borders border policy, so no fixed borders shenanegans
- Multiple tiles have >50% Incan culture but still belong to Portugal
- None of the aforementioned tiles are within the influence of one of any Portugese city.
