Military Advisor Report, several turns into the game,
“Thus far, we’ve located six City-States in our immediate surroundings, they are basically encircling us from all sides. Which, while providing a protective barrier against potential invaders, does limit our expansion in some ways. However, with your plans for a coastal city focus, this shouldn’t be too significant a problem. Our Scouts ran into trouble in the north, so we’re redirecting our efforts to explore southward into the area you referred to as “Africa” in hopes of encountering less Barbarian activity there. Additionally, our Warrior Unit has dispatched the Barbarian Encampment to the south of Lunaria. We should be able to continue our expansion progress through that area now.”

Yaaaay... More City-States... That’s... greeeaaaat... I... guess? -.-;; (Where the fuck are the actual Civs hiding??? I realize this is the biggest map size, but come the fuck on! Enough City-States! XP)
