10 turns is fine. I like shorter turnsets for more frequent touches by each player, makes it more of a team experience.
Ok. 10t it is.

I wouldn't put my hopes up.

If we want Monaco soon, that's the way to do it. I don't agree on also buying Monaco to accelerate culture policies - that never really seems to work, the escalating policy costs always win - but it is true that the Tradition finisher is the one biggest policy to accelerate.
I'm not sure if I missing something, but Caravan TRs are Civ wide, not specific to each city. We need to reach certain techs to get more TR slots (or wonders, namely Petra and Colossus), we don't get a free one per city. The first one usually comes from AH (which also opens caravans), and the second one from sailing (which opens cargo ships). After that... Is it Guilds? Let's see...
Animal Husbandry (Ancient Era)
Sailing (Ancient Era)
Engineering (Classical Era)
Compass (Medieval Era)
Banking (Renaissance Era)
Biology (Industrial Era)
Railroad (Modern Era)
Penicillin (Atomic Era)
These are the techs that give a new TR slot. We can actually send all TRs from the same city, but we can't send them from and to the same cities (I think we can send more than one TR to a city, if the "from" cities are different).
