All military units have the option to "Demand Surrender" to enemy units and cities.
Like say there's this tough military unit that you will defeat inevitably, but it'll be costly, so you demand for it to surrender and you'll let them live. The unit will disband and either become a worker or return to their nation. Or join your side if you're Rome.
This would also be immensely useful when dealing with civilian units that are embarked, like your settler, or great person, or worker that's been captured by the barbarians, you demand surrender and POOF, the unit is yours!
This'll also happen when besieging cities, surround it with overwhelming force, and when it's inevitable that the city will fall, or if they're really scared, you can demand surrender, and only some of the buildings will be destroyed, depending on how much they resisted.
