Choose Alphabet>Writing>Literacy if you want to focus on science development.However ,make sure you can reach masonry and irrigation first as the give you a free wall (+100% city defense) and +1 pop in each city.
Choose Horseriding>Feudalism, if you want to rush the enemy in the early game.(ex: being the first to research gunpowder would grant you a rifleman unit in your capital city.) After a few turns a message will pop up asking you what to research next. Many techs grant you a bonus for being the first to research them, this bonus may include gold, culture or science bonuses for your cities, even Great People! Being the first to discover a military oriented technology will always grant you one free unit of that technology. This forces enemies to attack across a river and also up a hill! (-50% attack for them, +50% defense for you!) An optimal city location would be a hill surrounded on multiple sides by rivers. However settling next to a hill gives the enemies a +50% attack bonus when attacking from that hill. However settling on a hill is very good, as it gives your city a much improved line of sight and adds a whooping +50% attack and defensive bonus to units stationed inside. Avoid: Likewise you should settling adjacent to mountains, and hills, unless the hill contains iron (with early technology iron-working this gives you a hefty production boost), or if the mountains contain gold, or gems(both of which give you, well, gold).It is also a good strategy to settle directly next to a barbarian village, as they give you a free militia and there is a valuable resource tile underneath them. Any opposing civilization that attacks from across a river has its attack power slashed by 50%. Look for: Be on the lookout for rivers and resource tiles, these can provide a ton of extra food ,production, and trade.Look for enemy capitals, native villages, and resources. A good place to play should be a city surrounded by 2 grasslands, 3 forest, and 2 sea tiles. This should be a location with 4+ food, 4+ production (hammers), and 4+ trade. Move your settler to an optimal capital city starting position.
