Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I've got both
though tbh, 5 is way more refined and balanced than 6, especially when you have Sumeria and its absurd UU in civ 6

I'm currently playing a single campaign as Portugal, and whilst Im mid-game, it's looking pretty good. (1st in all demo's, close 2nd in soldiers) I've just been gifted (I think) a Merchant of Venice. Not sure what to do with him. I am going for the diplo victory, but could probably have a good shout at Science. What should I do with it?

Disagree, a puppet city state generates a lot more wealth in the long run if you have the resources to maintain it.

When I returned, Assyria and Venice declared war on me, I took the Assyrian capital, and somehow managed to fend off both. I then gained a vast amount of gold (I hoped for a chiev at 10,000) and basically coasted through the last however many turns. Might have to crank the difficulty up. I could have won in Science but kept going for the diplomacy (the only wincon I hadn't done yet). The other 2 wincons I would have had a chance as well.

Happiness tho.
And you can't even control the city state.

Still don't think it's worth it tbh.
the influence is important for cultural city states.
More Policies the better you are.

Yeah if you're playing civ v you pretty much can't go over 4 cities because the game is designed that way for ??? Reasons. Higher tech costs, higher social policy costs, and you'll never get the national wonders if you keep building cities. And being a city states ally is practically equivalent to owning it without any of the downsides, seeing as you get the various bonuses and copies of their resources (and if you invest in the patronage tree like a madman than you get even more bonuses in things)
Tbh you guys needs to all move over to civ 6, it's low-key a better game than 5.

One of the good things it does so makes it so Xcoms and Paratroopers can't get the blitz promotion.
