Its a tribal village that either gives you tech, gold, map, a unit, or is hostile.

1. Hit the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard. (It might say PrtScrn or something like that instead, but yeah)
2. Go into some Image-editing program, like MS Paint.
3. Hit Ctrl+V.
4. The Screenshot is there. Save it, and it will, by default, be in C://Users/<username>/Pictures.
Playing as Spain on RFCE, I found something really weird (mouse over 'Vassal State', btw):
Spoiler :
Surely you would want to be a vassal to a really powerful master?
This is a quirk in the game. It's a stupid feature of vassals. The more vassals you get, the less the others will vassalize. It isn't so much of a strange screenshot as it is a reminder of how crazy the rule is.
IIRC if you are the most powerful Civ in the game the others won't sign a permanent alliance with you either.

A Tribal village. It's the little brown huts scattered about the map which can give you bonuses like a small map, some gold, techs, or occasionally spawn angry barbarian warriors which either give you a decent amount of XP or wipe your only scout off the map.
EDIT: Err, this is a reply to totalepicness and I have no clue why it's so late in appearing... strange...

Those little hut things? whenever i move a unit on there suddenly there's a barbaric invasion so i always avoid them.

oh, and i think the problem is that you become the vassal of that civ, not they become ur vassal.

Either you are playing at a high level or have very bad luck. At lower levels, the odds favor getting something beneficial although the chance of a barbarian remains. Scouts rarely pop barbarians. Combat units are much more likely to do so.

i've never built a scout unless i started with one.. even then i still used it as defense for my city until i could build a warrior

What's the point? The only unit a scout can kill is an animal, which can't enter borders anyways.

Scouts are guranteed to get good results from Tribal Villages, so it's a good idea to explore with them. THose free techs can be very helpful.
@Bowsling, I think defending with a scout removes the unhappiness from no defenders. I've done that in a pinch before.

This is an unusual oddity you don't see often. A grenadier attacks and captures a city... and his supporting army runs to another city 3 tiles away!
(Attack was from the north, from the Rice)

[Edit2]Oh, and this gem of a random event. The founding father of the United States of America, after dismantling the oppressive Republic and it's loyalties to the rich and powerful, after spending a lifetime spreading democracy to thier small but growing nation ... doesn't even last a single term in his own government.

* The American President is facing impeachment
* Washington adopts Democracy

Looks interesting. What mod are you using, ROM2+AND?

That's not a road, it's the driveway. The asphalt contractor was a lazy slob and dumped the extra in the yard!
