He ruled over an era of peace that lasted for thousands of years, he built one of the worlds strongest economies from nothing using his own two hands and a single employee, he donated generously to the impoverished as they suffered from natural disasters, he was always willing to let anybody who wanted to hang out on his party yacht regardless of what they were able or willing to pay, he even supported the laws that would restrict his own power.

This is the greatest civilization campaign I have ever had the pleasure of watching. This is no exploit. Kupe and his followers, who've been a small nomadic group for thousands of years, and his crusade of helping people by taking money from where it's not needed to where it is, even from the same nation, probably by taking it from corrupt government officials, is the most diplomatic thing to ever happen on any civilization game. He was for his entire life a chill dude who just wanted to hangout and help people in need. He managed to outnice Mr Rogers. Material possessions? Creator of Philosophy? He puts Diogenes to shame. That's world leader material. Thousands upon thousands of years from now people, as people colonize the galaxy, they will still be talking about what a cool dude he was. He deserved every single one of those points and votes.

There were 3 city states on that tiny island meaning no barbarians would ever spawn there, and since he has no cities to conquer, the AI won't ever declare war on him and levy those city states to kill him, and city states never declare war unless their Suzerain declares war.

For a super extra easy diplomatic win, save before each world congress so you can always vote on the winning proposals with minimum votes, letting yourself save all of your diplomatic favor to outvote everyone in the endgame. Or just be Spiff and already know what the AI will pick every time.

I always come back to this video almost religiously. This to me is what this series is all about. Not glitches or exploits, but alternative ways of playing. Such as Prison Architect without building a Prison, playing Spore without evolving, or civilization 6 without settling a city.

The diplomatic victory here actually makes perfect sense to me. Regardless of what the rest of your civilization was like, you successfully negotiated dozens if not hundreds of diplomatic agreements with every single empire in the world. Time and time again, you brought issues to the peace table and resolved them. You supported the right people at the right time and put money in the right places when it needed to be there. That sounds EXACTLY like how a politician gets elected to be the leader of their government. It just so happens this government is in command of the entire world.
