I started a random civilization, random map, standard speed and standard size map. I got England and got off to a fresh start, 2 cities in an island with a only 2 resources, pyramids, heroic epic and circus maximus for happiness and more cities. Since I had 9 iron and got 4 cities built with 2 tradition and 2 liberty, I teched straight into navigation to get ship of the lines. I had about 7 ships and 1 caravel and went ahead and took Sejong's Seoul and Jeonju but didn't go inland to finish off Sejong since my melee units weren't so good. I made peace and let him live.
So I moved to the other continent with the ships and took Marrakech and Rabat from Morocco. I get to the ideology era and chose Autocracy since it was the last tenet with a free social policy. As soon as I did this, I got many DoWs, from India, the Ottomans and Korea who eventually got to take back their lands along with a revolutionary wave from the ideology section which left me with -12, unhappiness. I built zoos and coloseums and managed to reduce unhappiness to -6, Sweden had barely built the Manhattan Project while I was barely researching industrialization. I also had barbarians appearing near my capital cities which I killed and gained culture from honor.
I thought this game was a good starting spot but I don't know what I did wrong here. Another weird thing I noticed is that I failed 2 coups at 85% odds of success and got 2 KIAs.
Anyway, any tips that work for the level 7 immortal difficulty in BNW?
