It's kind of hard to be first when I'm at war with everybody.

He lost all of it back. I think he only got Alex's city and that is about it.

Mansa Musa's galley decides to destroy all of my fishing boats unimpeded.
The forces outside of my capital city end up being too strong! I desperately withdraw my forces to a few key positions.
My catapult, in a moment of sheer awesome, wins with 11.1% chances.
All of their forces pool into one giant stack of doom.
Suddenly, elephants appear on the horizon!
Somehow, my capital survives.
Meanwhile, more elephants:
This is not good...
The elephant eventually reach my cities. My Western and Eastern-most cities manage to hold their ground.
My Northern city is not so lucky...
They push in and wreak havoc on all of my improvements.
Once again, my capital and the Eastern city get raided.
My capital miraculously survives again!
My Eastern city does well at first, but ultimately gets whittled down.
Beshbalik, which had previously been tucked away between my cities, is now exposed.
It falls quickly. (forgot to screenshot this)
Only my capital and Athens are left.
This time, it doesn't stand a chance.
All I have left is Athens, defended by a spearman and an archer on a hill.
A chariot attacks, and somehow kills the spearman. The last remaining vestige of my previous might is now gone.
As if to mock me for this, the AI suddenly stop attacking, and recede back into the fog.
In a cruel twist of fate, I have become Alexander.

Great update.
That is the revenge of alexander. You destroyed alexander and than he took revenge by making you have only athens and be in an even worse situation that he was.

Epilogue
The turns pass by uneventfully. Content with my powerlessness, the AI merely stations units to check on me.
Somehow, I make it to feudalism, but I am still pretty much trapped. My only other option (the sea) is cut off because the AI got caravels.
Since it seems that absolutely nothing is going to happen, I resign ungracefully.
Post-game screenshots:
Info screen after I lost my capital:
--I killed a lot of units!
Screenshots of the map in WorldBuilder mode:
Accidently destroyed Catherine's city by clicking on it:
I may have lost, but this was quite a fun game! Maybe next time, I'll be able to fare better.
