Enough with the METY references! 
Tell you what. If METY ever updates again, you can use it all you want.

Welcome back, civvers!
After what seems like a year or ten of college essays and midterms, I have finally found the time to create a new update for you all! Last time around, the Portuguese conquered and vassalized the Aztecs, ridding themselves of their Viking overlords in the process. Meanwhile, the British and French began to assert themselves in North America. Now, onto the update!
We start off with turn 270, where several new cities have been founded. First off, the Russians, who have founded Vorkuta far on their northern shores:
Also, the French create their first overseas colony, in Port Royal:
And finally, the British found the colony of New York:
Turn 271: (1600 A.D.) The Khmer have expanded again, founding the city of Padang on the island of Sumatra:
Turn 272: I meet Frederick of Germany:
Puny culture, huh? *Grumble... Stupid Roman-destroying barbarians...*
(Note that I am not making fun of Germans here; I am half-German myself)
I also meet Louis of France:
Get a haircut, will you? Or at least a better wig.
Turn 273: The British found their third North American colony, Savannah, just north of Florida:
Turn 274: Here's a testament to the Inca in this game - they've managed to found a fifth city, Quitu:
The Inca have been performing more impressively than usual, having five cities. Because no nation ever got the conqueror's event on them, the only thing slowing down the Inca's growth have been plagues. I wait expectantly to see the Inca colonizing Africa one day.
Meanwhile, the Mongols have been repeatedly trying to capture the old Chinese capital, Beijing. However, they have had no success in that department, because Beijing's defenses look like this:
Not bad for an independent city. They even have Joan of Arc helping out! Note that the reason for the reduced strength in some of their units is because they just held off four Mongol Keshiks. Again, not bad.
Turn 275:... ... ...
You know, Suryavarman, I think you need a vacation from ruling the Khmer. I think that tropical heat is messing with your brain. Why would I give you a tech for ten gold when I make five times that amount per turn!?
Back to the real world (well, at least a more real world than the one Suryavarman's stuck in), we see the British add another colony to their lineup: the colony of Winnipeg, on the western coast of Lake Superior:
Meanwhile, the Russians add to their collection, founding...
Anyone ever see... anyone found Narjan-Mar before? I am getting some weird city placements in this one. Why would the Russians found a city here, when they already have both Arkhangelsk and Vorkuta filling in the role of northern port city? One thing you can't deny, though - Russia is getting big. They currently have twelve cities, more than any other nation.
And on that slightly odd note, this update shall come to an end. Unfortunately, unless I can get an update out tomorrow (fall break), I won't be able to produce another update until at least next weekend. But keep looking, and as always, stay tuned!

Welcome back, civvers!
To celebrate the return of Sisiutil, I have decided to answer with an update of my own! So sit back, grab the popcorn, and enjoy the shoe!
(I meant show, by the way.
)
Last time, the British and French began to colonize North America with a vengeance, the Khmer expanded into Indonesia (and unsuccessfully tried to play me for a fool) and the Russians founded several new cities on their northern coastlines. Now for the show to begin!
We start on turn 276, where Tokyo has spawned the Great Scientist Aristotle. I choose to have him create an academy in Tokyo (already have one in Kyoto).
As for territorial expansion, the Mali have founded the town of Wadan at the northern edge of the African jungles:
On the foreign front, we start off with a look at a report from our foreign advisor:
As you can see, the world's pretty peaceful, now that the initial round of European colonization has run its course. Other than sporadic Mongol attacks towards Beijing, the only war at the moment is the one between the Persians and Arabs, which is now going nowhere because the Turks are standing in between them.
Turn 277: Uh oh...
Might want to wait to go to your town, GreekAnalyzer. Better wait for the Brits to get this town back. Don't want the natives killing you!
Turn 278: News coming out of Europe. France, until now, has been a vassal of the German Holy Roman Empire. But according to my latest info, the French have thrown out their German masters and France is no longer a puppet state. Much rejoicing has broken out in Paris.
Turn 279: The Portuguese have officially entered the colonization game, founding the colony of Belem on the Brazilian coastline:
Turn 280: Awww...
Yes, let's completely ignore the civ with the highest score for the first congress.
Anyway, since I didn't have any sort of say in this, I'll just tell you what cities flipped.
First off, the Romans royally screwed over the Arabs, taking the Jewish (and Christian) holy city of Jerusalem from them right under their noses!
Next, the Dutch extended their colonization efforts by taking the Khmer port city of Singapura:
Third, the Turks diplomatically took control of Aksum, bringing Ethiopia under their control:
Poor Ethiopia. If Zara Yaqob was around, their UP would have prevented this from happening. As it is, Ethiopia is now destined to spend some time under Turkish rule.
Fourth, the Portuguese further split apart the Khmer by taking control of Yangon (in Burma):
Poor Suryavarman. He lost a third of his empire to this congress.
Finally, the French pulled off a sort of diplomatic coup by taking control of British founded, native held Savannah:
Hope you speak French, GreekAnalyzer!
That's it for the Congress, but don't think that means the turn is over! Nope, it's been a busy turn. First off, the Russians found yet another northern coastal city, this time being Gornjacki:
But we're still not done! As guess what's going on in the Middle East:
Wonder why Chogha Zanbil now belongs to the Turks? Well...
The pile-on has officially begun! The Ottomans have declared war on the Persians, and have brought their Mali and Mayan vassals into the fray as well. The cold war in the Middle East has gotten hot yet again!
And with this action packed turn, I'll end the update. Next time, we'll see the outcome of the (hopefully bloody
) war between the Persians and the Ottoman-Arab-Mali-Mayan alliance. Until next time, stay tuned!
