Ok, this is still my Brutii H/M campaign. I now have almost 40 provinces and am currently at war with just about everyone: Gaul, Germania, Scythia, Armenia, Parthia.
While fighting Pontus and Seleucia, I managed to get an alliance with Armenia. However, Parthia and Egypt have refused every overture I have made to them. It seems that no matter what I do, I cannot convince the neighbors of my enemy to either ally with me or simply stay put and keep the peace. This results in an unending stream of wars.
After crushing Dacia and Thrace, the Germans got it into their heads to betray their alliance with me and Ally with the Scythians (who had been refusing anything more substantial than trade agreements) against me.
After taking care of Pontus and Seleucia, Armenia decides to attack me instead of helping me with the Scythians! Parthia and Egypt have allied and entered my lands so war is not too far away with them either.
Gaul has also refused any reconciliation even though they could with my help take back their homeland from the Germans.
To top it off, I am in deep doodoo with the Senate and they have given me an impossible mission (Blockade a British port) so the civil war is not too far.
I am not writing this because I feel overwhelmed, I have full stacks in all concerned regions but I wonder why it is not possible to get at least a few turns worth of peace along a border...
