Maybe it's an exploration age German state? Prussia?

Could you tell me the timestamp for this one?
Could very well be. But for Prussia specifically, something more Palace-like might have been a more iconic option. I‘ll see if I can find the building after which this is modeled.
Blink and you'll miss it in the showcase video.
This looks like it could be in the same style as that last town center, maybe it's the palace version:
I initially thought it could be the Great Library, but it looks too small to be a wonder.
Bulgaria or Byzanz most likely. At least the feeling that I get is a mix of orthodox monastery with Greek townhouses.
But the surrounding architecture in the city doesn‘t fit with that. Looking at the screenshot of the city, it gives me more of a Japanese or SEA vibe. I have very limited knowledge of ancient Japanese architecture, but the palace doesn't look like that to me. It could be world builder shenanigans - or that someone build a Byzantine city on top of an ancient Japanese city, for example.

Kindaaa looks like San Vitale? I might be biased though, that was one of my predictions/wishlist. That would also be two wonders/buildings from Ravenna, (Mausoleum of Theodoric) and we did see that city name I think.. as a Roman city if I remember correctly? But on closer look, I don’t think so, I’m gonna keep thinking about this one!

Also can I just say how much I LOVE that in civ 7 we will recognize civs based on their unique architecture. It’s not generic or generalized for the region, it is so close that we can identify the civ from them!
San Vitale would be a great choice, and it would explain why it appears in a Japanese or SEA city. However, as strange as many wonder depictions are, I can't imagine that they would do a round San Vitale? It's one thing to have complete nonsense architecture for wonders that looked like that for many games (Hanging Gardens, Oracle) to keep them recognizable, but if you introduce a new one...

Yes you're completely right, it doesn't fit beyond just the drum at the top, and maybe there is a some connection with the gable roofed protrusion, but you're exactly right with the base, San Vitale is not round its an octagonal, and that is something they would show I think. I am also thinking Byzantium or some eastern European power like you are though!
I believe the third one is a French town center.
I noticed this very distinct looking building in the background of one shot:
It looks like it could be Cambodian/Khmer architecture.
For comparison, the one on the left is the the Phnom Penh Royal Palace and on the right is the Silver Pagoda.

Ryansinbela
Emperor
That clearly looks like a horse
Lord Lakely
Idea Fountain
Colour palette and style invokes Mediterranean to me. A Spanish town centre, maybe?

Compromise?
