I've just been doing the Foreign Affairs Summary and noticed that Persia does not have dyes. How about:

We give: Dyes

Persia gives: World Map, 117 gold, 15 gpt!

This will also give us overlapping trade deals with Persia, so if they are going to declare war on us they just can't wait until one expires.

 

[Chieftess]

Do the Persia deal! Also, don't get us locked in a 20 turn deal with Babylon, since we might be going to war with them soon.

 

[Furiey]

If we're contemplating war with Babylon we definitely don't want a 20 turn deal with them, it might be worth getting their territory map so that we know if they've connected up the saltpeter or not. Even if we just buy it it'll only cost 1 gold. Might be worth doing just before we actually invade as well.

The Persia deal is a good deal....,But how about the other trades?
