So, I'm (America) on a continent with Egypt, the Ottoman Empire, China and England. England is on a little corner of the land mass and became bottled in by my expansion. Lizzie turned hostile, but since she took the time to insult me every so often for no reason I didn't care. I tried to make her like me...really since i wanted to trade my excess gems for whales. But she wasn't hearing it. I began massing horsemen and archers and swordsmen on my border in case she decided to go for a sneak attack.
Lizzie 'embarked' some troops across the small bay on the continent to attack the city state of monaco.I was already friends with Monaco so I attacked her. Soon her three cities...London, York and whatever the other one was, were puppets. Her entire army consisted of a handful of archers and warriors. It was almost too easy. But Lizzieran, using a quickly built settler to escape across the bay and settle right next to Monaco. She tried to sue for peace, but screw that...I was too angry to let her go.I sent two horsemen and an archer after her and put her to the sword. Monaco loved me for it. My reward?
Unhappiness 16! Stagnant growth and barely any production.
So instead of letting her attack a smaller opponent, or razibng her cities I'm penalized for winning? It makes no sense. I could go back to a save before the war and just raze her cities but I'm thinking everyone else will be pissed at me for it.
