Fundamentalism or Democracy

I want to earn as much money as possible so i can buy cities (my first game using this strat) and currently im under democracy. Im earning 3000 gold coins and loose 500 in maintnace and i want to buy 10 japanese cities on my continent. I dont care about tech because my neighbour is under fundy so his science is really slow so i put my science to 0. Should i switch to fundamentalism or democracy (i dont want any wars tho because the japanese have a trillion forces on their land)

I have bought several XP laptops online and set up a non-Internet connected LAN at my house. My two younger boys and I have been playing multiplayer together for a while now.
One of their older brothers came from out of town and played with us a couple weeks ago. Tonight he called while we were playing and asked if there was anyway he could join our game too? I told him not with a vintage XP machine because of the viruses present today.
I asked an AI and after looking at the answers it gave there’s no way I would trust doing anything it said. What are my best options for getting that done? Are there any?
