Very good question.

If you were not at peace, then I would say definately. But being allies- I just don't know for sure (of course anyhow . But actually, I could still see your border shrinking because of his culture.

We shall see..

Yes, I think it will get shorter, peace or no peace. You may even loose a city. The people in that city just want to belong to that other civ!

But we will see how this works out in civ3.

Ok, well anyone cares to show such occasions in real life? Cities from one coutry joining another or borders moving. I mean there are border disputes on centimeters but none of them because of culture but because of acts of war.

It's maybe even more interesting to imganine what happens when you AND your neigbours's culture still is growing, while your borders already clash. What happens? Will to lowest growth be rewarded with a decrease in borderwith in spite of the culturegrowth?

Nah... Guess THEY (the mighty F word) have seen it all...

Probably not, if not one of the civ's has much higher culture points. I can just imagine how crazy I'm going to be if another civ steels my cities

yes, the situation calls for some surgical strikes at the cultural workshop camps on their territory

Official borders and 'spheres of influence' are two seperate things. For example, the crusades didnt involve just one country, they gathered a huge force from different countries through the (powerful) cultural influence of religion. Not the perfect example, granted, but its something along those lines.

That what I always thought until I saw so many people say that its exactly the other way around.
