And Matthias Corvinus, who can just buy envoys. And by buy I mean, get them for free after you sell on your excess luxuries and strategics that you get from being suzerain.

And Babylon. Free Grove when you build your first Preserve, which makes the ROI a heck of a lot better.

Factories (specially with an Oil or Nuclear Power Plant), trade routes, buy districts outright with Reyna or Moksha, settle 4 pop cities with a Hic Sunt Dracones Golden Age....

"Face-Off" is also a movie with IIRC John Travolta and Nicholas Cage, where they swap faces or something (never seen it, but remember it being advertised a lot).

I no longer have that save file or the seed though.

In other words, a day that ends in 'y' on CivFanatics.

You could do that in Civ1 with Caravans.

You can't change your farming district to a mining district if iron/niter/etc pops up in that tile. You can change improvements. Or replace a farm with a neighborhood.

Well, the idea with Kongo is that you pick a religion to spread to your lands that has the best beliefs for you, so not ones that depend on holy site buildings. You may have to work a bit for that, but that's the whole idea behind asymmetric civs.

But you can build the Temple of Artemis next to someone else's camp, even though Civilopedia says otherwise.

Minor buffs to Babylon and Gaul, with the Man-at-Arms being available at Apprenticeship, which both of them can reach pretty fast. It will most likely still require Iron though.

Another variant (besides the obvious "Why does my capital not show up in Available Routes?") Why can I not create a trade route from Coimbra to Kawa? Lisbon has a trading post, Coimbra doesn't, but Civilopedia doesn't mention that that matters.

It worked like that in Civ I IIRC, except there was some random chance each turn that your unit would be lost. But the current implementation is far more historically accurate. Sailors just weren't that enthusiastic about losing sight of the shore and not being able to find their way back, it...

Yeah, I bought a Great Prophet in a Portugal game. Pretty decent ROI with Religious Communities.

Technically Phillip II was also the leader of the Netherlands.
