When you conquer a City, Wonders will not be destroyed, and you will have full benefit from any inside when you finally Annex the City. City-States will give quests based on Wonders that you may build, and this is a great way to boost influence with them. Having a Spy inserted as a Diplomat in an opponent's Capital can sometimes alert you that the target Civ is building that Wonder. Having a technological edge can help you succeed in constructing Wonders, along with internal trade routes from Cities with Workshops sending Production to the Wonder-producing City. Wonders become increasingly more challenging to build as you raise the difficulty of Civilization 5 due to the AI bonuses. If you are competing to produce a Wonder and lose, you will get gold proportionate to the production your City invested. World Wonders may only be built once in each game. Within the list, you'll find each Wonder's tech requirements, the stats it provides, and a special column for Great Person Points for those looking to maximize their GPP per turn in a City. The list is sorted by Era, so that you can attempt to build all the Wonders for your Victory Type as they are unlocked by research. This Wonder List is fully updated to support both the Brave New World and Gods and Kings DLCs.
