Can anyone give me a clue as to what causes Civil wars when a capital is
captured?? I'm a bit confused.  if I have 4 enemy civs left, I can split any
of
them while they're small with no problem. However, if only one enemy civ is
left (sometimes 2), and I allow them to get HUGE, I can capture their
capital
and all that occurs is a relocation of their capital city.  So, I'm left
wondering - what causes the split?

Is it economic - meaning that if they don;t have enough cash to relocate,
they
go to Civil War? Or, is it government based - meaning a certain form of
government will not allow the civ to split.  or, is it happiness based -
meaning if the citizens are content, their civ will remain intact?

I have tried making my civ, for instance, rather large - encompassing most
of
the world.  But, when I set it up where an enemy civ or Barbarians capture
my
capital, my civ remains intact.  What gives??
