Hello everyone, I just accomplished my first deity win and now I'm trying again, as Hungary. Mostly because the River ability sounded interesting. Lo and behold, my first city had a great river! And then I expanded a bit and am feeling pretty boxed in.

I just got my settler for my third city and I'm trying to figure out where to settle. I've included two maps, one regular view and one strategic view, as well as a few annotations on the strategic view as candidate spots or at least reference points.

Some relevant details:
- Hungary (bonus for districts across a river) / Deity / Continents
- It's turn 30
- Three AIs on my continent at least: Dido, Poundmaker, Mansa Musa
- Three city-states on my continent at least: Buenos Aires, Zanzibar, Palenque
- Plan was to conquer my continent, then go for Diplomatic victory, but I'm flexible
- Dido has denounced me so I'm probably going to have to gear up to attack her
- Buenos Aires is just north of the shown map and may have a few units to levy with Hungary's ability for attacking Dido
- Good income because my first settle was on oranges and I sold those; once I have irrigation (7 turns) I'll be able to get two more luxes to sell
- I need 4 more era score in the next 11-31 turns to get a Classic Golden Age (yeah, seems likely I'm going to go way over which is kind of a bummer...); this may matter for Loyalty purposes
- I don't have Bronze Working or Archery yet but have a +3 Campus ready in 4 turns which will help catch up on those

So, all that said, I would love any advice on where you think I should settle or any strategic decisions you think I should make at this point! Thanks so much :)
