Small wonders in Civilization III
Unlike the other wonders of the world, small wonders can be built even when another civilization has already built it. However no one civilization can built a second small wonder if they already have that one.

 * Iron Works
 * Forbidden Palace
 * Secret Police HQ
 * Wall Street
 * Military Academy
 * The Pentagon
 * Intelligence Agency
 * Strategic Missile Defence

Civilization IV
Civilization IV does not use the same epoch system so the list cannot be fit within the above section. Any Wonder cannot be built in any city, like in Civilization II; rather, they are built in cities that meet certain resource and terrain requirements, which vary from Wonder to Wonder. Every nation is able to build any wonder (with certain restrictions placed on the Church of the Nativity, the Dai Miao, and the other Holy City buildings), so long as no other civilization has completed it or discovered the technology which will render the Wonder obsolete. Theoretically, a civilization can still build stonehenge into the later ages if, by some miracle, no other civilization has built it or discovered the "Calendar" technology.
