Aggressive/Expansionist AIs

[Sp4]

It doesn't say it anywhere but it's always been about Rome's way to becoming an empire, right? It became an empire after Cesar died, officially anyways, or he was the one who started it.

In my campaign, Rome is an empire by 190BC but that is because I have no idea how to internal politics. I do know how to war though apparently =X I don't like how the internet politics just 'turn off' after a civil war though.
