Babylon: Ingenuity - 48
Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 50
Poland: Solidarity - 48
Inca: Great Andean Road - 48

All four are really good, and Incas are fun - but it's just not the strongest here.
 
Babylon: Ingenuity - 48
Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 50
Poland: Solidarity - 50 - I've stated my reasons million times already.
Inca: Great Andean Road - 44 - Great UA that, however, doesn't stand change against top 3. It gives best benefits when warmongering and when playing wide, but Inca is supposed to be tall civ (terrace farms work best with tall empires). While combat movement bonus and cheap roads are awesome, i'd rather take free policies or massive amount of science. It deserves 4th spot, though.
 
Babylon: Ingenuity - 50- It's actually better than Korea's bonus due to the snowball effect of getting NC and Unis earlier.
Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 50
Poland: Solidarity - 50
Inca: Great Andean Road - 40 - Just die already.
 
Babylon: Ingenuity - 52 The early boost is the key to this UA being so good. It will get you to key techs much faster and helps you early on when you need to go down a variety of paths to get necessary techs. The extra GSs are really important for late game bulbing too.
Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 50
Poland: Solidarity - 50
Inca: Great Andean Road - 36 Great UA but the other three just have higher impact on the outcome of the game.
 
Babylon: Ingenuity - 48 This and Solidarity are both powerful, but just very uninteresting
Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 50
Poland: Solidarity - 50
Inca: Great Andean Road - 38 I like being able to fly over hills while everyone else is left behind.

Follow the crowd.

Would appreciate it if i don't need to explain this one like I did the Siam vs Greece one. Because this one is really damn hard

I've already been hating on the Incans for a while (in respective value compared to some others). Glad to see it's socially acceptable to downvote them now. The other 3 are by far the best 3 UAs in the game.

May as well follow the crowd and support the next underdog - Korea. Would be nice to see the top 3 UA's contest each other at 50 points each.
 
I am not sure if this has been discussed before. Regarding Korea's tech boost: anytime a science building is built in the capital, the tech boost is equivalent of one research agreement. Library, National College (assuming built in the capital), University, Observatory (usually not possible), Public School, and Research Lab = 5-6 immediate RAs.

Great Library, Oracle, Porcelain Tower also give you the same tech boosts (Great Library gives you two RAs - one from GL and one from the library).

So maximum, you can get up to 9 immediate RAs throughout the game. Undoubtedly strong, but not sure how this fairs against super early Great Scientist + 50% Great Scientist. I don't have Babylon civ :(
 
Babylon: Ingenuity - 48 Difficult to pick one now, so this is only because of my poor handling of great people.
Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 46
Poland: Solidarity - 50
Inca: Great Andean Road - 28 The most fun to play.
 
Babylon: Ingenuity - 44

korea is better for science IMO

I agree with bbbt above. They are all powerful, but a game mechanic should be interesting, too.

Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 50
Poland: Solidarity - 46
Inca: Great Andean Road - 24
 
Babylon: Ingenuity - 46
Korea: Scholars of the Jade Hall - 52
Poland: Solidarity - 50 Can be anything, even science just by finishing rationalism sooner.
Inca: Great Andean Road - 16- Solid 4th place but the other three are so much better.
