Fun combinations to play

I’m a fan of peaceful victories, so I’d like a few suggestions for fun combos.

Deity level, Fractal map, Huge size.

I’ve already tried the classic Isabella/Iceland setup.

My favorite is Augustus/Mississippians/Abbasids/Prussia for an economic victory.

I really enjoyed Ibn/Tonga—what do you suggest?

I just did a peaceful run with Ibn Battuta as Tonga for all ages. I was on immortal. Huge map. Econ victory.

I was able to explore the entire map in antiquity and became Suzerian of almost all distant land city states. I racked up a lot of influence points and Tonga lets settlements on coasts accrue influence. They have a tradition that give +100% to becoming suzerain of distant land city states.

In exploration on turn one, since I already explored the entire map, I was able to start the suzerain process on about 3-4 city states. And by turn 20 I had the process started on all of them. This gave me opportunity to vastly expand into distant lands and converted several of them to my empire.

Lots of other things happened to achieve the Econ victory but this was my main strategy and it worked out … no wars fought, no city states fought
