Conclusive proof that the map generator is a sadistic bastard:
Yeah, and that Iron source was the only one I could easily get to.
For further proof, I could go out to the rest of my empire, which includes massive amounts of desert, plains, and hills, and some jungles and marshes in the north. In the south, I have a city I took from France so hilly that it can't grow above size 4 unless I capture more French land and take some tiles it currently can't use, and even then, it still can't grow very high. Other parts of the map are similar, from what I can tell. The amount of food on this planet is ridiculously low.
I'm not completely sure, but I think Normal Temperature and Humidity, 4 Billion Years Old, 70% Water, Pangaea.
Beware the Japanzantines! They both, because of glitchiness, have the same color, and are next to each other on the power graph. Luckily for my sanity they didn't start next to each other and make it impossible to tell the difference...
As a bonus, I have a story of something that happened that I couldn't get a picture of: The Carthaginians dropped a Numidian by one of my cities with a Galley and then declared war on me the next turn. The Numidian didn't attack the city, but the Galley did. My Spearmen killed it. The hell?
That is going to be awesome if they both grow rather large, and then someone murders one of them overnight.
Did he promote? ... Anyway, do you have any mods installed? I wouldn't think they'd affect the base game, but I've heard that they do funny things to units sometimes (and I know I've seen a transport carrying an Amphibious and a non-Amphibious unit have both of them attack from the sea in a mod), so that might be it.

This one is obvious, your advisor is talking about the number of recourses you are handing out to your peoples.What do you mean I only have one source of Silks? I have 2, I'm just sending one of them to the Russians. I also don't have my own source of Ivory, yet she says "We only have one source of Ivory, we should find more to trade to our friends"
switch on color blind help (that's a good thing even in 'normal' games)Beware the Japanzantines! They both, because of glitchiness, have the same color, and are next to each other on the power graph.
