Would this allow the player to get the liberation bonus from the Freedom Ideology by liberating the city state from the barbarians? This is one of my favorite quests by the way. I like to play peaceful, but it occasionally allows me to blow off a bit of steam!It is because of the city-state quest ("event") that is spawning the barbarians.
If you hovered over theicon you can see in the first screenshot, it would tell you that if any barbarians are adjacent to the city when the quest expires, the city will flip to the barbarians (!)
p.s. please put the big screenshots in spoilersSpoiler :
Usually my vassals are acquired after they attack me unprovoked. This earns them the garbage treatment and iron fist rule over them. When they want me to go get my shine box I am not unwilling to teach them some manners. In return they get to exist and trade with my vastly superior empire. Nothing more.
I'm talking about the ideology tenant that gives all of your army XP upon liberation. I don't know if liberating city states triggers it or not.
What version should I use to have a challenging game with AIs? I play Immortal level only.
AI is completely dumb In the latest versions (4.15-4.16.2) . Poor war-related stuff perfomance, wrong choices (f.e. Tradition for Japan or the God of War pantheon for India).

I noticed my land trade routes are not suffering a proximity penalty but my sea trade routes are -50% - but my land route are closer than my sea routes- was this a recent change or was it always like this?
I think proximity is not based on as-the-crow-flies distance, but movement costs. So you could have a City State 10 tiles away but its too far to send a Caravan because all the tiles between you are Forest-Hill.
So it might be that by sea its very close, but by land not close at all.
That's my guess.
Do you have a screenshot?

Ok-- but it does does't feel like that-
I have a land trade route from Libson to Brussels six tiles ( one forest and possibly a river) and no penalty, and I have sea route to Wellington which is farther with 50% proximity penalty. It is the same with my other land trade route-- I do have a carvanasary in Libson but not in my other city with land trade route and no prox penalty.

Aha so you are on this small island.
Presumably your longest possible trade route (which is what determines the penalty iirc) is actually this one to the City-State (or there abouts).
Whereas the Cargo Ship one you have options much further away (Copenhagen).

Ahhh.... makes sense. That is good know. Thank you!
I'm not sure if this will help or not, but this recent thread addresses some issues due to the launcher being broken for us out of nowhere.
PSA: Desktop Icon Now Launches DirectX 9 Version
Since 2K's recent update of the Civ V launcher, the desktop icon only launches the old DirectX 9 version of the game. As far as I can tell the only way to launch the proper version of DirectX is to launch the game directly through the Steam app.

It's more for launching the correct DirectX version, but it may help with your issue as i think some computers just won't load DX9 at all apparently.

Try creating a Civ 5 Desktop Icon from Steam then changing it's Properties / Web Document / URL so it looks like this:
steam://rungameid/8930//%5Cdx11
I'm not sure if the number 8930 changes between users so just use whatever number yours came with.
Ummm, I read once again description of GS, GE it is said ".... increased by 10% per Academy created and owned". Now I need clarificiation what condition is being used: "AND" or "OR"? thanks
ps I always thought conquest can fix your lack of academies/manufactories/towns etc for late game.
