I’m guessing you want fantasy/history, but since you didn’t specify it, if cyberpunk is something ypu’re interrested in, I highly recommend store.steampowered.com/…/Heart_of_the_Machine/.
It’s a unique game. Not exactly 4x, but kind of choose your own adventure / rpg / 4x game, where you play a newly awekened sentient android/AI in a dystopic city, that is left alone by corporation because they want to see what you do.
There’s extremely branching story that works across timelines/playthrough, you have a lot of options from “fuck humans uplift animals” through “i’m your god”, " I house the homeles", to “this is my city now” or “VR torment nexus”, with numerous civilization destrpying dooms you’re trying to solve along the way.
It’s pretty cool, and I don’t think I’ve seen anything like it.
While it doesn’t have dynasties or span ages, it does work with time travel where you affect your new/other timelines, which are new playthroughs.
So, it’s probably not the fantasy kingdom management sim you’re looking for, but just in case you don’t mind cyberpunk and a smaller scale, I highly recommend this. It’s my top 4x hybrid I’ve played so far.

Definitely looks interesting. Not what I was looking for, but goes into my wishlist, thanks.
