...if you haven't played Sid Meier's Alpha Centari before, I have to say this does frequently lead to conflicts later on.

Alpha Centauri is very late 90s, "end of history" coded indeed.

It is, but I guess Civ always was. From the start the whole "leave Earth, go multiplanetary" thing was baked into the endgame. If anything AC was a post-history sequel.

I mean, honeslty, it was mostly a popular sci-fi mashup, but... you know, that as well.
