[SPOILERS] There Can Only Be One Suttree - French Fredrick - LOL, Sut?

[suttree]

Kicked off the golden age this turn, so I guess it's time to do a t100 summary or somesuch. I'll wait until the end of the GA to do a city review, as most of my cities are in odd configurations. I take the barbarian city to my northwest next turn and settle the Moai island t103, putting me at 12 cities. I have courthouses finishing soon, but the REX is really dragging on my tech rate, so this golden age is key in keeping me competitive. The skipped anarchy, culture for key border pops, and great artist are important too. Speaking of foreign policy:

The Dutch (Oxyphenbutazone)

Oxy is having a tough time, WillLP took a city from him and I really can't tolerate the Ashes on my border. I'm chopping an army out of Cades cove and I'll build a trireme out of Fontana. I'm hoping the threat of pillaged seafood and hopeless war against an opponent more than twice his size will convince Oxy to "sell" me Ashes for 100 gold, open borders, and a resource (wine?) to demonstrate my friendship.

The Russians(Sisu)

I need to do something about Sisu soon - he's running a small but efficient Fin empire. In the overview, I've circled likely concentrations of developed cottages. Sisu offered me open borders again this turn. I need to motivate BXB to pushback against Sisu.

The EAST

I've really slacked on exploring in my race to prepare for this golden age. I'm settling right next to the fog - maybe I have another neighbour. I have triremes, so a potential trading partner?
