I'm Makedonia.

Rome's lack of expansion after taking Syracuse seems to be because it is completely tied up fighting the Aedui, who have taken Mediolanum three times so far. The Aedui are quite nasty, as they are on a major offensive against Rome while simultaneously holding their own against Lusitania and Sweboz and conquering Rhaetia in their spare time.

Since being kicked out of Sicily, Carthage has been at peace with everyone and it still took them fifteen years to capture Mauretania. Likewise, the Arverni went to peace with everyone once they lost their provinces in Gaul, despite having five or six full stacks sitting in Galatia and having four neighbors, but they've finally woken up and gone to war with Pontus.

The Pahlava were pushing really hard into the Seleucids from the start, but they weren't getting anywhere until the Seleucids suddenly decided to sacrifice everything to try and retake Antioch from Pontus. They basically put five full stacks in Syria while leaving the rest of their empire defenseless... and they still couldn't manage to take Antioch. I ended up conquering it and Tarsos for them (they're my only ally, so I felt obliged) when they were down to two provinces left in the east. Most of the Seleucid empire fell within a span of ten turns.

Baktria was invading India when it suddenly withdrew its armies and went back to war with the Saka, seemingly only because the Baktrian king really wanted his kingdom to resemble a cow's head.
