    First you need to Denounce a leader. Note that this cannot be done if they denounced you first. (Annoying! I want to say “oh yeah, I denounce you too buddy!”)

    Then wait 5 turns. Under Casus Belli, choose Declare Formal War.

    Bleep bloop!

    DmbledoreFor this achievement to unlock, you have to Declare Formal War on a Civilization that haven't denounced you previously. Its very easy to avoid being Denounced at the beginning of the game.

    You will have to Denounce another Civilization first and wait 5 turns before declaring war.

    Create a custom game with the following settings.

    Step 1.

    1. Choose Pangaea for the map
    2. No City States
    3. Set Map Size to Tiny (this helps in encountering other Civilizations faster)
    4. Settler difficulty (not really necessary)
    5. Medieval Era (not really necessary)
    6. Set Game Speed to Online
    7. Pick a player for yourself (doesn't matter who you pick)
    8. Add as many players slots as the game will let you (no need to select opponent Civilizations - this helps in encountering other Civilizations faster)
    9. Start the game

    Step 2.

    1. Build your city immediately where you start.
    2. Have your units wander around and pretty soon you will be contacted by another Civilization.
    3. Go into the World Ranking menu (RB) and select that Civilization and Denounce them.
    4. Put all your units to Sleep and/or Fortify and continue for 5 turns.
    5. After 5 turns, go back to the World Ranking menu and select that leader and go to the Casus Belli option and chose Declare Formal War.
    6. Exit out of that menu and the achievement will unlock.
