Terra Incognita is the eighth monthly challenge of Sid Meier's Civilization 6. In June, you have to defeat your opponent with the help of Juan the Third (Portugal) on Prince difficulty or with the help of Matijas Corvinus (Hungary) on Emperor difficulty.
Due to the lack of strategic as well as luxury resources that your people require, it is necessary to explore beyond the starting shores of your poor continent. Play on prince difficulty and take advantage of Juan's bonuses on international trade routes, or buy off the army of the surrounding independent states with the help of Matthias Corvinus on emperor difficulty for a real challenge.

Strategy:
Clockwise from the top, your opponents are: Victoria (England), Tokugawa (Japan), Philip II (Spain), trajan (Romans), Cleopatra (Egypt), Harald Hardrada (Norway), Mansa Musa (Little), Poundmaker (Creed), Jadviga (Poland).
Although your strategy will largely depend on the difficulty of the game and the selection of the leader itself, I would recommend some things regardless of both:
- Learn Cartography as soon as possible so that you can sail across the ocean.
- Build Government Plaza and Hall of Ancestors in it in one of the first three cities.
- Place Magnus in a city with Government Plaza and promote him with a commission, then start training or buying new settlers in this city.
- Start colonizing a new, resource-rich continent as soon as possible. Resources are limited and the point is to grab them before the opponent.
- Set "Colonial Offices"I "Colonial Taxes” maps in the government to make new cities grow faster.
- Build at least one Commercial Hub. In this challenge, monopoly and corporation mode is in effect and should be used to the full.
