I could very much use some tips on what I should do now in this game.
I'm playing as Harun, I got GL, PT, ND and Machu in my cap. I started out with three cities, had an early war with Hiawatha in the east, got friendly with his neighbor Oda who captured some of his cities.
After fending off Hiawatha I went of to capture Babylon with my camel archers. It was quite attractive(but also quite the happiness hit):

As I capture Babylon, previously friendly Bismarck and Hiawatha DOW me. I have a RA with Oda coming up in a few turns and then one with Ramesses and I have a GS.

Where do I go from here? Obviously I must try not to get killed by Bismarck but I'm behind in tech and it will take many turns before Babylon or Akkad will be of any use.
I have a culture CS between me and Bismarck who will probably get crushed.
My camel archers are heavily upgraded(3 terrain, logistics+siege and/or march).

BTW, the goal I had when I started the game was diplomatic...
 
Oh, didn't know they we're military units. Will try!

Please, I still need help. ATM its turn 200:
I'm at war with Bismarck and Oda. Hiawatha made peace.
Bismarck is at war with me and Ramesses. Ramesses is at peace with the others.
Hiawatha is at war with Oda.

Ramesses has most of the CS's and is filthy rich. Germany gobbled up the ones that were allied with Babylon. I'm not sure how friendly Ramesses is. One turn he would only give me 36 for open borders but now he at least gives me 209 for lux.
Germany captured Lhasa and because of that pretty much has a clear path towards my 2nd city. Before that I had a good line of defense.
I'm 8 turns away from military science and I think I have to bulb artillery after that. To defend and get Lhasa back.

Is diplo victory at all possible? Do you think it would be easier to go for space?

BTW, how come this puppet is gaining 7+ for GM? If it gets one it will mess up my GS acquisition...
