Trading comes to Civilization 5

Brave New World brings travel to the world of Civ V. Every civilization can open international trade routes to other cities, which bring with them promises of economic growth and research bonuses as two cultures share their religion, culture and scientific achievements. Build a net of connections to other civs and reap the profits, or establish an internal trading web to support your own cities on the borderlands of your empire.

Improved culture-centered gameplay

Civilization V: Brave New World gameplay increases the importance of culture, by introducing archaeology and tourism as new avenues to explore. The newly introduced Tourism resource allows you to achieve cultural victory if it exceeds the Culture of all other civilizations. Creating a tourist paradise is a perfectly viable way of world domination. Support Great People, among their number Great Writers, Artists and Musicians, and let them create Great Works for you. Displaying them will attract even more tourists to your cities. Send out archaeologists to search the world for artifacts from the past for you to display in Museums or share with their rightful owners for extra diplomatic leverage.Cultural victory has never felt so engaging.
