Got the Ancestral Hall with Magnus in the capital, only one chop needed, my second and third city have a campus AND a 5F/2P trade route to the capital. My Pingala City will have some nice district adjacency due to the GP next door.

My expansion is a bit slow because I'm currently at war with the Ottomans and I needed to cram in a few units to properly defend myself (but I did manage to steal one of their settlers). The land to the east is free and ripe for settling as I farm XP for my Ohkichitaws with Survey. ^__^

As a Cree lover I would say your GovPlaza is located in wrong city. Gov Plaza should ALWAYS (as Poundmaker) go in a city which would focus all internal trade, so obvious place is Wihkaso-Kiseyin - 5 pastures/camps, good grow for hammer districts, both CH and harbor possible and easy obvious Sangkore.
Alternative as a 2nd city would be city for 3 cattle + fox SE (are there more pastures?)
It has after using 1 builder: 2f3H3Gfox, 2f3H hill cattle, 2f3h mekewap (or even3For1G if another food/luxury), all in 1-2 ring, amazing city with mega strong early hammers, gowth and huge hammers post IZ
