    Question: When is this taking place?

    If we take the existence of the Etruscans and Rome being ruled as a Senate, then this must be at least sometime after Tarquinius Superbus, the Etruscan king, was expelled from Rome in 510 B.C.E. Veii, the last Etruscan city of any real importance, was sacked in 396 by the Romans, and by the end of the Third Samnite War in 90, Rome annexed the last vestiges of the Etruscans and held the entire peninsula.

    Thus 510 - 90 B.C.E.

    Now, the Successor States of Alexander effectively came into being in 323 B.C.E. when his generals were appointed governors of what would become the States by Alexander IV and Phillip III. If we're going by actual "empires" existing then Antigonos and Ptolemy had appointed themselves kings by 305, so we can go from there.

    Thus 305-90 B.C.E.

    Now, the Parthians can be taken two ways: either as a people on the move, which still fits within our timeframe here of 305-90; or as a kingdom, which happened when Arsaces decided to settle down in what are now the Turkish states (the "Stans"), which is about 250 B.C.E.

    Thus, our interactive must be taking place between either 305-90 or 250-90 B.C.E.

    Again, I ask: When is this taking place?

    These interactives just keep popping up

    I'll play as the Ptolemaic Empire

    RTW, 167 BC: Rome expels Greek philosophers after the Lex Fannia law is passed. This bans the effete and nasty Greek practice of 'philosophy' in favour of more manly, properly Roman pursuits that don't involve quite so much thinking.

    Gaul, please, if it's still free.

    Though, are we talking unified Gaul or just one of the many tribes? Either way is fine by me.
