Not necessarily "whose uniques are best", but "whose uniques complement each other". Byzantium is probably the easy answer for best synergy; their religious and war games are so tightly intertwined by their uniques that it makes for a very interesting playstyle. IMO an example of bad synergy are the Dutch, whose things are kinda random. Sure, you could make an argument like "Use De Zeven Provincien to conquer cities, then make Polders to block them up so they're hard to take back" but that'll rarely work out in practice.
Another example of great synergy is the Inca. Working mountains combining with Terrace Farms, Aqueducts being buildable on mountains, etc is great. Another bad one, imo, is rough rider Teddy. He's very strong in general, but I feel like a diplo/domination civ has no real reason to have the Film Studio, which works way better with Bull Moose or regular Teddy.
