I've reached 50BC as the julii, with 50 regions, minus Rome and any hostilities with the other Romans, when in the space of a turn my near 100k of cash disappeared. I checked my finances and found corruption had increased by tenfold (100k) in one turn and has remained since. Cities report that corruption is over 50% of income. I checked to see if I did something stupid like accidently moved the capital to some poor, far-flung corner but no. Most governors appear highly reliable and trained in the ludus magna. With me about to crush the Egyptians with great satisfaction and instead losing all chance of income in one turn, you can understand why I'm asking if anyone knows what has happened and if there is any remedy to it as the change appears to remain for the long-term.
