Military victory in Civ 7 isn’t about conquering capitals. It’s a point-based system, and founding settlements/cities also gives you points. I managed to get the victory just by founding new cities. Normally it’s pretty hard because you eventually run out of available land.

It used to be that you could flip capitals with cultural pressure. I'm not sure if that's in VII, though.

By “without firing a shot,” I mean I didn’t go to war. I did shoot a few barbarians though! 😄

Never played Civ 7.  How?  Barbs killed 'em?  Nukes?
