Crude story Put an end to popups!

Today I found an interesting post (Author: Yttrium in the German Civilization Webring Forum). I must translate it to you

Today I played as the Russians, when I noticed that the Persians became very strong. So I send a couple of transports with spies towards the enemy capital. There was no war at that monent.
When the spies finally managed to nuke the capital, the empire was divided into two parts, Persia and Greece.
The next turn the Persians succeeded in taking the Greece capital Samarkand, the Greece Empire was split into a Greece part and a Viking part. Same turn, now the Greece took back Samarkand, and the Persian empire was split into a Persian part and a Zulu part.

--------------
The Persian empire had been split into 4 parts:
Persia, Greece, Viking, Zulu

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Fun - but doesn't ring true - spies cannot capture a city and a civ does not split just because its capital is nuked - it must be lost.
Then, the recapture of Samarkand would not lead to a split unless the Persians had just moved their capital to a city (in revolt) that they had just captured - never seen even the AI do this ...

Hey, SGs, I thought that war quote was George Bernard Shaw (or someone of that era and calibre).

Straybow - not according to the Book of Quotations from which we extracted it ...
However, there was no date so it is not possible to determine who pinched from whom ...

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Here is one that you won't find in any quotation book (at least not before I get a Nobel Prize):
'Contrary to war, French presidential elections don't determine who is left, only who is right'
