what is a culture bomb

[MinnesotaRuss]

and how does it work?

Well, Firaxis is very glad you asked, because it's a mechanic they obviously really love. Basically, whenever you build whatever does the culture bomb, it grabs all adjacent tiles that are within three hexes of the owning city, even if it belongs to another civ or city-state.

Thank you. That's very clear.
