Will the civil war still occur if I take Rome?
I am doing a campaign as the Seleucids. I have destroyed the Scipii. I have an army big enough to start attacking Italy. I want to get rid of the SPQR. However, if I do, will the Julii and Brutii still go to war with each other later on? They are really powerful in my current campaign. The only factions left are me, the Julii, the Brutii, Briton, and Macedon. I don't think Macedon will be around much lunger as they only have Byzantium and Thessalonica. They always keep sending army after army to Rhodes. If they keep doing that the Brutii will be able to finish them off even easier. Briton is still holding out very nicely with quite a few settlements. It would be nice to have the Julii and Brutii also worrying about each other, too.

Well I think that without the senate you'd make it easier for the two remaining Roman factions to declare war upon each other, I mean they'd stop feeling the senate breathing down their necks so they'd have nothing to lose. Theoretically speaking that is...
Still, the Roman factions (in my experiences) don't usually like wage war against each-other, even with no senate in their way.
