I continue to pound on France.


I pop another prophet in 1300 AD, and I simply merge him into Mecca. I have no use for a fourth holy city.
I end the prophet wonder run, and build Colossus in Mecca during 1320 AD. It needed so little time it was worth it just for the GPP.
I culture bomb Paris after it comes out of resistance to push the German borders back.


I will need to cleanup France to hit domination, but for the moment I sign peace gaining token items.
I grab liberalism in 1400 AD, when Russia no longer needs education.
I was going to try for something better, but I take the standard nationalism grab.
I pop a scientist in 1410 AD, and he builds an academy in Medina.
War with Frederick begins in 1440 AD.


I pop a scientist in 1520 AD that builds an academy in Mecca.
I start my first GA in 1525 AD by building the Taj Mahal.

I am around half way to domination at this point.
I pop a prophet in 1565 AD that is merged into Mecca.

I complete Versailles in Paris. This seems strange to build in this variant, but I saw it confirmed as legal.

In 1655 AD I start my second front, and declare on France. It is time to cleanup the last remnants of that country.


France falls quickly, and I head back to Germany. Looking at the map percentages I will need all of Germany, all of America and maybe part of Russia. I wanted to quickly grab another couple of percentage points.
I entered the industrial era in 1695 AD.
