Yes, Settlers is an old hat for people who living in or next to Germany. (It's not the new "Monopoly", yet, but comes close for some circles of gamers.)
Caylus is worth a look, too. For a medium-light and fun game, take a look at St. Petersburg. Tongiaki has very elegant game mechanisms (and you can do a nasty things to your fellow players).
If you are only playing with your spouse, Roma and Lost Cities are worth a look. The latter being a very nice gateway drug for non-gamers.
