The Basileus was considered equal in the eyes of the people, and was also addressed in a much more casual way than you would address, say, the Basileus of the Seleukeis.
Hmm. Do you think that could have changed if the Arche Seleukeia had somehow managed to conquer Makedonia and get them to accept the Basileus ton Basileon as there rightful ruler? (just curious)

Seconded!

They must fall.

About leaving other factions alive: I don't know... if it works realisticly we should but if they become obsolete I say: put them to rest. Our first priority should be however to conquer all of hellas.
