    Aedui for me; it's a fascinating culture, and it'll be great to see what I can do with it to improve how they fared in reality.

    I anwered Kingdom of Pontus because the birth of the kingdom is quite fascinating and it was also an interesting mix of hellenic and oriental cultures.

    well. Iberia is nice. but there's just too little information...
    the mere fact that EB calls their troops by their Latin names says enough..

    Pax Romana
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    I'm infatuated with all history. The Question is a GAH!

    but I choose Kart'hadish, largely because of their bittersweet history.

    After becoming infatuated with these ancient traders and the histories of the Gaulish tribes I have grown to despise the Romans wholeheartedly. Pax Romana is a disgusting term and is kin to phrases any politician crafts to bring their people to heel around a noble idea, skewed into the domination and destruction of different cultures.
