It a very small thing but it felt like the game has changed for the better. So i am next to Egypt, we have some land between us and they claimed it. This set off a diplomatic trigger of them settling next to me. Well I demanded that they give it to me. Well right after they accepted, they offered to buy it for 100 gold. Which was a pretty nice trade. So i accepted. Like I said, super small thing, but just the fact they can offer to buy land like that is awesome. definitely going in the right direction.

I love it!  I love that it happened, and that you accepted.

You gotta encourage those young empires with the behaviour you want to see from them. :P
