What is the latest year you've settled a city in a non-contested area. (One that wasn't placed for purely strategic purposes, or one that you didn't have to defeat and destroy enemy city and then place a new one)
In my latest game, I sent a ship out with a settler, knight, and worker, and was able to find a decent (not ideal, but not crappy) area to establish a new city in the 1690's.
It was far enough away from an enemy civ that I could build up my cultural borders to a decent size and get a foothold in the area without pissing anyone off.
I'm playing an epic game on the second level of difficulty in a semi pangea world (two large continents) with a moderate climate and sea levels.
