Two things in this post, really.
First: have you ever been annoyed when you are attacked, and your ally gets involved and scoops up all of your captured cities, essentially having your ally capture your cities without having to declare war in you? I propose that it wouldn't take away fun factor or take a lot of time to have it so that when your allies liberate your cities, those cities revert to your control (or have a diplomatic agreement option in the alliance terms that that will be so). It always annoyed me to death to see my beautiful light-blue cities go white and then allied purple!
Second, and possibly less liked: Maybe there should be one last chance for underground movements. What I mean is, when the last city of a country is captured, that country MAY get one last chance to uprise and take a couple of cities. This is both realistic and potentially fun, since this sort of thing has happened in history and wouldn't you love to take over that enemy nation that had you crushed for 50 years/10 turns? Your last city, if High-culture and captured by low-culture civs would probably like to rebel. Maybe a few units could be crawling around, trying to help out allied liberation (see above). Remember the French underground in WWI? And how many countries have been destroyed for centuries, just to reappear again almost unchanged. I can see this getting annoying if you finally take over your bitter rival and then it just shrugs off your control, so the rebellion should be rare and with a low - not impossible - chance of succeeding. It probably won't get in but I've always liked the idea of me getting one last chance if I look like I'm toast.
