Nice game, trigger!
I'm afraid mine has not been so neat and clean, got interrupted yesterday so i'll try to finish it up today, but I have had to fend off a few attacks.
The mongols and greeks both started wars with me within a few turns of meeting me. I still had very few military units, so I had to build some up quickly, but Ghengis declared war and had only sent 3 units over and then had them all go to seperate cities. Alexander declared war, and I still haven't seen him, we met because I think our cultural borders just barely touched somewhere, but I don't think he has any way of getting to me because he is in last place, silly AI.
I might have to wage some wars to get myself into position for a diplo victory. I am friends with 2 of the 3 top Civs, I'll just keep building population and maybe try to eliminate 1 or 2 of my weakest rivals.
Wish I had gone for the cultural victory too, never done it, probably was a good map for it.
First time playing Japan as well for me, I kind of liked it, although I was hoping to go to war with them and expand into a big empire...
