i was wondering.. if I play the julii family can say the bruti family become Emperor???? I mean does the AI Romans strive to become Emperors?? and if they do and they become emperor what will happen to your roman faction?? will I lose?? or will it continue for me to "knock" them of the throne so I instead can become emperor?... or say even can I maybe ignore that they have taken the throne as emperor and ally with them even???... or can they give me missions like the senate did??? or vice cersa can I give missions to other roman factions when I am emperor??... I know that the game is won after a while when I have been emperor but if I continue what will happen to the other romans???

I know... ALOT of questions, but I haven't read anything about this and its seems kinda fuzzy...
