Winner: Frederick
Runner Up: Genghis
First to Die: Asoka
Survivors: 4
Victory: Spaceship, T313
You might want Washington to get involved with society, but the map doesn't seem to - if he can get on with Qin (admittedly not the best neighbor he could have for that) he could easily pull off another isolationist game.
Actual pick logic: India surrounded by aggressive civs is an easy first to die pick whichever leader it has; Frederick's in an excellent position to run a builder snowball if he can get on with Darius as well as he did in his first game, and bands of desert + the "kick me" sign on Asoka's back should push Genghis into going more north than west until Frederick has a tech lead; I could talk myself into any of Peter, Genghis, or Zara for second, but decided to go with first-game performance.
