Victory & surviving armies
Unification includes the independent states.
Unify every city and defeat all foreign armies to record victory. Defeating your current enemies alone does not win while independent countries remain. Neutral countries stay sovereign until you declare war. Troops keep their allegiance after ordinary conquest or peaceful independence; armed revolts take their hometown troops. a country without cities can still have an army. Victory does not interrupt play: you can keep governing.
