It would’ve been pretty easy to win last dynasty with a coordinated team (wealth was pretty unambiguous from the start in the form of Clues: Emperor-given info on a series of data a la Cluedo; wealth could be easy shared because you just needed to know it.

This dynasty isnt as obvious unfortunately but a teaming up/planning to pool into a single person is very often super strong anyways.
