How do you drop an ongoing treaty?

[Afterburner]

I have an MPP and ROP with the Byzantines. The original 20-turn limit has long since passed, and we never renegotiated or cancelled. She tried to cancel on me at one point, but I talked her out of it.

I'm just wondering how I would go about cancelling the deal with her at some later point?

in the military advisor screen (F4) you can select the ai and at the bottom of the screen are two menu items (the best i remember from memory) they are 'new' and 'active' (something like that) and 'new' is the default. select 'active' and it will show you a list of ongoing treaties. click on the one you want to renegotiate and it will cancel it. sometimes they get an attitude when you do so by the way. if the treaty has a number by it then that is the number of turns till it expires. if it has no number then you can cancel it without a reputation hit.

I have found that the only way to avoid Rep damage is to re-negotiate peace treaties in the manner that rysingsun describes

simply declaring war causes all of the other AI civs to mistrust you......FOREVER

Not true. As long as you declare war by going into the diplo screen and declaring properly -- which means no ongoing trades, no units in enemy territory, etcetera -- rather than just wandering your unit up to the enemy and saying "kill!", your reputation will be fine.
