Ok I'm done
Culture Victory Turn 305 Victory
I bent the rules a little on this - rather than focusing on rapid expansion to 4 cities and NC I beelined straight to Hanging Gardens and then to Petra. My idea was to get a supercity going and let expo's catch up after. A supercapital can carry your civ if your a bit late on expanding.
Since you have the Southern landmass to yourself (and the barbs) there wasn't too much of a rush to settle. Although I did sell my resources to buy a settler to get to Mt Sinai (although the barbs carried my settler most of the way

if you get my drift. So it was capital +1 expo at Mt Sinai before building National College.
One secret regarding the map - not a huge spoiler though
After I had some basic military out the barbs weren't an issue especially with Honor opener. Some people question whether you get the culture back from that policy but I swear I did on this one. I kept as many camps around as I could just to farm culture and every few turns I'd be getting about as much culture from killing 2-3 barbs as my total culture for that turn. It certainly did add up even moreso in the late game when Great War Infantry started popping up - to get 50 culture in 1 hit is pretty good!
Once I found I had Petra the gamepace seemed to go on steroids. Byzantium was always friendly so I basically didn't have to worry about wars at all. I did a pretty standard cultural victory. Teched to Education then to Acoustics etc, bulbed a lot of Great Scientists to get to the mid-game Cultural Wonders...
Only thing that slowed me down was trying to get my musicians to Venice - I don't know why they can't fly - it's a bit much expecting Richard Wagner to walk across a continent...
I also manipulated a lot of wars between Poland and the Shoshone - being the 2 big runaway civs it really gave me a free run (paying Poland to declare war on 2 of their friends so they get a double backstab bonus and then no more Research Agreements for the Rest of the game

.
A very wonderful city! Doesn't show the Sistine Chapel and the Statue of Liberty. Other Citys have the Machu Picchu and Sydney Opera House.
Venice got a lot of culture - which is odd for just 1 city - they must have had World Church.
Don't think i've ever had so many social policies before - not on diety anyway. You probably can't see it there but commerce is almost all filled out as well so 34 policies in total
