Liberating conquered city states is also almost always a better way to go than keeping the city as well. If you are going for a diplomatic victory, you should never capture city states because it’s better to get suzerainty from them. Bonuses. The unique bonuses can be extremely strong.

However, if capturing a City-State in Civ 6 will give a player access to a desirable resource or terrain feature, then they should not be afraid to kill it, and they should certainly look to conquer City-States that are being targeted by an AI.

Yes, but its difficult. Also, if you want to protect a CS you are suzerain of, sending more envoy will help it keeping its loyalty. I suppose the least interesting CS may end up joining civs, maybe in the late game.

You can choose to not care at all about city states, and getting alliances with them, and just take them over. This is possible when going for a domination victory, but not much else. Taking a city by war more or less ruins it for many turns, so you need time to get those taken city states to really get going.

Note that the Loyalty system introduced in Rise and Fall will not majorly influence a city-state. While it is possible to turn a city-state into your empire peacefully via exerting Loyalty, to do so is extremely difficult, as the city-state has a large counter against foreign pressure.

basically make them your own without attacking. If you are Austria you can spend gold to annex a city state that you are allied with. Otherwise you will have to conquer them.
