Here's my two cents on the AI declare war, peace for 10 turns or so, AI declare war again...
It's because relations and Casius Belie (sp?) have not improved since the peace agreements were signed.
If you don't want to go back to war with them increase your relations via diplomacy. Give them techs, trade agreements, pull your spies out, etc.
Lets face it if the AI Empire is mad enough at you to declare war it's because your relations suck. (by actions/inactions of your empire or due to racial hatred)
In particular their 'peoples attitude' (Casius Belie) towards you sucks they are itching to go kill the "evil enemy".
Over turns if there is no combat the 'people' stop seeing you as 'evil enemies that should be destroyed' and sue for an 'uneasy peace'.
A peace that is fragile...if you don't do something to improve relations it's really easy to convince an already upset people to go back to war.
Look at the USA / Iraq conflict for a real life example.
USA goes to war because of Kuwait invasion (a trade partner).
Iraq forces are slaughtered, some American people begin hating Iraqi's less because they feel sorry for the onslaught and overkill.
No diplomacy to improve relations occurs.
Press the Turn button 10 times and it's March 2003...any guesses what happens next?
