I just finished David the Builder achievement as the first of the new Cradle of Civilization ones. It wasn't that complicated but I was wondering if there was a more efficient or funny way to get the achievement than giving away all provinces and build 2 buildings in the capital.
I only conquered Georgia and Samzche, nothing else. Then I calculated I had 200 ducats, but 19 buildings slots to fill (did not destroy forts), meaning I needed 2000 ducats to build churches and market places everywhere. One way would been to destroy my eco with loans, debasing and lowering development for money, maybe mixed with selling some provinces. Another maybe viable one I was thinking about was trying to collect the money out of the neighbours, but wars are costly, too, and newly build Georgia isn't a powerhouse. Third option to blob for money increases the money needed much more, because every province has more building slots. I don't see how lowered costs for buildings in the Georgian NI and for example eco ideas will compensate this, so waiting for the tech don't make much of a difference. So I chose the easy way, also since I had no other good achievements to pick up with Imereti->Georgia anymore.

I see no other way either unless you intentionally spend 50 years waiting without conquering anything else after forming Georgia.

You said the exact same thing that OP, and that's what I referred to.
