Such exiting situation!
Purple
It seams to me that purple has the strongest initial position but have limited strategical choices. He can
1. attack red
2. attack yellow
3. do any of these after gobbeling up the nabourghing AIs
and when he's done with one player, he'll go onto the other. I would suspect that purple would be interested in getting blue to distrupt the sealanes for red and yellow but there is little incentive for blue to agree to this.
Red will struggle with establishing himself on the other side of the woods on the northern continent. He will also be weary of his nabourghs' intentions in his southern realm. If purple doesn't attack him right away, he will do so after conquering yellow, it would therefore be wise of red to create an alliace with yellow. If no alliance is created, purple can conquer the small AIs at will without any risk of intervention from red or yellow. There might be a point for red and yellow to make a secret agreement to attack purple when he is at most engaged with the AIs. Such an alliance would eliminate the need for a great navy for both red and yellow.
Yellow is, I would say, in the weakest position, being the most spread player. On the other hand, he got some excellent possibilities to spread on the southern continent. If he makes the agreement with red he might be able to take some pieces of purple and at the same time get the entire southern continent. He will need to have a large navy at some point but as long he keeps good realations with the other seafaring players he should be ok.
Blue is the one who knows exactly what to do. He will get the entire northen continent. At some point he will clatch with red an then he'll loose his southern annex but if enough time has passed he might not care to much. He will then slowly fight his way through the woods and get reds capital and achieve total domination on the northen continent
