You might try what I did.
I clicked on my global rank in the upper left of the game window (which brings up a list with several tabs - player lists, guild lists and medals list).
In the players list, I went to the top of the list and worked my way down. I read profiles and viewed cities. When I found someone I thought was interesting, I sent a friend request. I sent some friend requests to the very top players and many more to players who were ahead of me by an age or two.
I didn't hear back from everyone. But the responses I did get were positive and helpful.
