Paeninsula Italica - Radices Imperii
This historical mod covers the great struggles for supremacy in Italy in the timeframe 333BC - 222BC.
After the Defeat of the Aequi, the conquest of the Etruscan city of Veii and the definitive submission of the Latins, Aurunci, Volsci, Hernici and the Campani of Capua, Rome emerged as one of the main powers in Italy ready to engage the other nations for the supremacy on the peninsula.
With the great invasion of the IV century BC some of the most warlike tribes among the Celtic nations settled in northern Italy; the surviving Etruscan cities, after the setback of the previous years, found the way for a more effective collaboration to contrast their foes. In the highlands of central and southern Italy the strong Italic nations were at the top of their power, expanding at expense of the Greek poleis of the old "Magna Graecia".
In the heel of Italy Alexander of Epirus, uncle of Alexander the Great, has just landed in help of the rich Greek town of Tarentum, aiming to emulate the achievements of his nephew; in the meantime the powerful Greek Syracusae is in continuous attrition with Carthage to control the rich lands of Sicily.
