UPDATED VERSIONS 12/23/2013:

New diplomacy system. Factions should be much more likely to accept and offer peace than they used to be. War are less likely to go on forever until one side is eliminated, and more likely to be resolved without major bloodshed in many cases. This represents the historical reality of war in the ancient period, when most wars were little more than cattle raids between neighboring powers which might last a few months before relations were patched up once again. Wars are slightly more common than they used to be, but also much more likely to be resolved quickly without resulting in the total elimination of one faction or the other.

Please note that one feature of this new system is that some war events produce positive rather than negative diplomatic ratings. For example, taking a city from the enemy or winning a battle against them will briefly IMPROVE your diplomatic rating with them, not hurt it. This is to symbolize factions being brought to the negotiation table by suffering significant losses. These changes are short-lived and will quickly wear off, so they don't result in long-term positive relations.
