    It's not even true that you are forced into war with the Aedui over Mediolanium in EB 1. I generally convince them to give it to me in exchange for an alliance and a few thousand mnai in my Romani campaigns.

    And conversely in my latest Aedui game I ended up in a war with the Romans over that southern settlement (Patavium?) after the AI Romans conquered it and then failed to garrison it properly so it rebelled to me...
    Annoying. Ended up torching everything north of Rome to convince them to back off for a while.

I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

    Alternatively, you could always bribe Mediolanum. After all, being SPQR, you make indecent amounts of money anyway. Bribing settlements has saved me from many a war in EB.
