Diplomacy Explained

[Hydromancerx]

Diplomacy and the opinion of another civ to you has always been a bit vague on how it worked and what factors do what. Could someone please help explain it in detail to me?

For instance what are all the factors that give +/- opinion? What do the Open Borders, Free Trade Agreement, Embassy, etc do?

Some I know some, but other answers I don't know. And I suspect some wonder too but never asked. So I am making this thread to ask it all and maybe even earn something I did not know.

If you do know or think you know or even have additional questions please post.

i dont know exactly but generally speaking in games like that the farther you are from someone the better relations you will have or at least the less bad.the game is programmed (because game ai is not the best) to target (more or less) the human .even if you are the most peaceful sometime they will attack you . of course the difficulty you play plays a role here too.
