Travelers report of some sort of ancient civilization in the south part of the world, near the vicinity of longitude E and latitude 8. Further investigations, however, revealed that the village was deserted and the huts empty.
A team of archaeologists discovered that the society had prospered until the ascent of a ruler with the fatal flaw of having a difficult to spell name. On one tablet alone, over six different spellings were found. Asking some nomads in the area, one replied with the following story.
...Emperor Sizpim was annoyed and felt disrespected by his subjects addressing him improperly. Let them say what they want, but don't let them write down all the false names, he decreed, fearful of confusion in the afterlife. It was difficult for business in the imperial court to proceed however without using his name. Eventually, he was fed up and outlawed the alphabet. It did him no good, though, as now he was left with little record for posterity.

You say you want a revolution?
Being disappointed with their Despot's descision to construct the Acropolis in 1000 BC, the people of the Land of Cubium cubed  their Despot Gamecube and elected his descendant Gamecube64 to the role of their first Consul of the new republic.
Cities
Procreation has resulted in massive overcrowding in the Societes, neccessitating the addition of 2 more cities in the Most Evil Empire, 3 more cities in the Land of the Dudes, and 3 new cities also in the Paragon of Empire.
Science
The land of  focuses on maintaining their technological superiority this turn and add the knowledge of Religion to enlighten their people about themselves, the knowledge of Espionage to enlighten their people about other societies and Industrialization to just plain lighten their cities. Both the land of the Dudes and the Paragon of Empire embark on identical research projects and discover Geography and Religion. The Most Evil Empire is content to just locate those sharing the planet with them and discover Geography.
Wonders
The Land of with the majority of its citizens now worshipping the Horse that appeared in their land several millenia earlier, proclaim a religious Jihad in honour of their Horse God.
Military
Conscripts were the order of the day with new armies being enlisted in , the Paragon of Empire, the Land of the Dudes and in the Most Evil Empire.

Note to players, lacking any direction on revolutions with the exception of the discussion with Smiley, I decided that you all were okay with my call on this one  . As it should be obvious, Gamecube revolted to Republic (Acropolis) on this turn, and I determined from the discussion to allow him one phase of production and to generate Tax Revenue (halved). Gamecube did not provide direction on what phase of production he wished to pursue so I allowed his Tax Income to be full (not halved) as a default. Let me know if anyone disagrees with this decision and we will discuss it in game. In the future, please indicate in your revolution year what phase of production you would like to enact or I will default it to tax production.

Turn #6
Market Day in Society
Today the Dudes sent some rusted Spike's to Gamecube, while split their Sandman toast between the Paragon of Empire and the Dudes. The Paragon of Empire meanwhile decided the Dudes were most deserving of their Skanky Wine, but also sent some to and the most Evil Empire. The Cubium's sent their entire supply of roasted Theben to

Government
Waiting to see the results of Cubium being in a new "Republic" the other leaders waited anxiously to see if they continued to hold their people in thrall of their magnificence or if their would be hopeful of keeping their head attached to their bodies.
Infinite Cubium Sleaze
In the most massive land grab to date, the Republic of Cubium settled 9 new cities and laughed at the meager efforts of the Despot of the Paragon of Empire to add 5 new cities and the both chuckled together at the single new city in each of and the Most Evil Empire.
Science
Not content to continue to lead a of Idiots, the Despot of directed that Representative Government and Mass Education be sought and added to the minds of the populace. The Dudes, seeing the value of representative government for themselves also sought this knowledge to go with their newly acquired research of Espionage and Industrialization. In the Paragon of Empire, Industrialization was their final goal but they were happy to discover that with Industrialization, you must first espy Espionage. Most Evil Empires spurn the lesser knowledges, but in this case, the knowledge of Espionage was too great a lure, and coupled with their Most Evil Religion, they figured their science was unbeatable. The Cubiums continued to lag in science and had to be content to discover not only where their neighbours were (Geography) but what they Hell they meant by Religion  .
Well I Wonder, Wonder, Wonder, who...who will build a Wonder this turn?
The Paragon of Empire joins the Wonder fun with a Mafia forming in their midst. Paragonians were later heard to ask...why did we encourage this again?
Meanwhile, has been busy working on the Railroad, and with the Golden Spike completed work on a project that will enable the construction of cities wherever they wish.
Military
As borders were formed between the various Societies, many new armies were constripted in all Societies. In an unusual effort to keep armies content, the Despot of ordered that all armies, new and old be provided with marijuana and told that they would very soon be making  and  ... .

Great post! "Sizpim" 
I like it
