Or 'better' yet: Set up nations as player nations and hand them over to the AI.
O.c. that lets you know everything about them, but at least they don't shoot themselves in the knee by choosing a sense-less setup. (I'm not sure if the command-line argument for setting AI strength will work in that case. I'm pretty sure it did for Dom2, though).
