Civilization 7 starts you off with one lowly settlement in the Antiquity Age, but as you progress, you can amass an entire empire’s worth of towns and cities. Your cities are the powerhouses of the empire, producing massive structures, while the towns can specialize in one type of production to aid the capital of your civilization.

However, to get to the point of ruling over dozens of settlements, you need to first learn how to acquire them. There are roughly four main methods to get more settlements in Civilization VII, and you can see what they are in the guide below.

All settlements, except for your capital, will usually start as a town. Then, as your empire grows, you can convert the towns into cities, which comes with various pros and cons.

The publisher announced that a new interface is on the way, and the Call of Duty app will receive updates to the UI that will make navigation easier. This UI overhaul arrives sometime in mid-October, but a specific date was not given for the big change.
