You have to make them like you again first.
Offer about 20 to 30 small no cost offers ,raise their diplomatic rating towards you to at least 2/3 of the bar.
Than you will be able to get any treaty you want with them.
If you are currently at war, withdrawl your troops to a safe distance.
Combat between you two will onyl make it harder to get that diplo rating bar up.

The top bar on this pop-up.
The diplomatic rating.
Thats the bar you need to raise.You can get it too rise by offering small no cost trades to the AI region.
If they really hate you,they may turn some of these trades down, but keep at it.
You can only do circa 1 trade a day to each region now,so just plug away at them each day.
Once that bar is 2/3s full- green- you can start to get any treaty you want depending on the sweetner you throw in with your offer.
If you instead continue with the small offers til the bar is almost full, you wont even have to add any sweetners to your offers.
Also remember to put some space between your forces and theirs as combat can lower the bar,which could cancel out a succesful offers affect on the bar for that day.

just offer them like $255 dollars each time
You'd be amazed what 30 well placed $255 dollar bribes can do to the goverments opinion about your region
It doesn't matter if you send 1 million or 5 dollars, it only matters aslong as u send SOMETHING
Just send something 30x and they are happy and take any offer u offer...well almost

Another nearly critical aspect to diplo with AI's is to start early in the game. Small overtures are more likely to succeed when you don't have to compete with other relationships. Propose embassies - the AI will reply, sure, send a billion or so. Send one tenth of the reply. It usually works.
Take care not to establish too many of these - plan for the future.
Also, reduce your buildcap in teh first two years - you are not building much anyway, so take time early in the game to reconfigure your bases. Get rid of enough that you are about 5th or less on the buildcap ranking. This will definitely improve your diprelate and civrelate relationships. Then form your alliances, then build up your base structure as you need it.
Another thing to consider - I have never seen an AI region break or cancel, or accept cancellation of a diplo treaty, so be careful. They are more or less permanent.

Colorless green ideas sleep furiously [but otherwise, they do not worry and are happy].

Trying to mollify the AI's
I'm playing North America in the Wrold scenario and just conquered South America in 59 days despite using mostly ground pounders to do the job as I'm still trying to figure out the fine art of air and sea transport.
I ended up getting all the other AI's miffed at me as well. I haven't jumped on any of them yet and am hoping to get them to come around. I noticed some sage advice here like trying to send many little "bribes". I tried to do a one-sided deal just to give each of them something but it seems like each deal has to have both sides give something before you can send it. Is there a way to send a one-sided deal to an AI region? Or do you just offer something of good value for something of very little value in return? Several AI regions are short or critically short of products and I've been trying to bribe them into treaties by offering a lot of free product for peace.
Thanks,
Eric Larsen
