Roman legions, together with Tolonran ransackers conquer the remaining Illyrians. They force their hand on the Ptolemaic Kingdom harder, essentially turning them into a Roman protectorate, although the Egyptian monarch is still "in power". Plenty of expansion occurs throughout these 25 years. In the Anatolian war, Rome conquers Aleppo, the Seleucid Kingdom and Vordalkien, which leads to the discovery of the Parthian Empire. Pompey the Great marches into Jerusalem in the war against Canaan, taking it as well for the republic. The Republic annexes lands in Crimea and present-day Ukraine. Julius Caesar, a grand general, serves for eight years in Gallic wars, from 58 BCE to 50 BCE when Gaul is fully conquered. A small campaign in the newly discovered Britannia starts, but it is slow.

Not much goes on in the "main battles", but both sides start to expand. The Xiongnu assimilate more tribes and the han dynasty expands into the steppe regions from their panhandle. This territory is crucial to the Silk Road, but is hard to control right now. The Han are looking to fix that issue.

### **NPC Events:**

* **Roman Empire:** The Senate, fearful of Caesar, demanded him to disband his army. They were afraid of him since he was a champion for the common people and advocated reforms that benefitted the commoners. Caesar refused to relinquish his control over his army however, marching it into Rome, crossing the Rubicon and saying "alea iacta est" (the die is cast). This was very much prohibited, and considered treason and a declaration of war by the Roman government, sparking a civil war between the Senate and Caesar and his supporters. Caesar won in 45 BCE, reinstating the dictatorship of Rome. The instability that had been in Rome for a while continued as a war with Parthia began and the aforementioned civil war occured. In 44 BCE, 7 months into dictatorship and 3 months into consulship, Caesar was surrounded by Senate members who all proceeded to stab him to death. One of the assassins was his childhood Brutus and Caesar's final words were reportedly "et tu, Brute?" (and you, Brutus?). Caesar might have died, but his adoptive son Octavian, "heir to Caesar", joined forces with Mark Antony and Marcus Lepidus to defeat the assassins, completely changing the course of history. From this, Octavian established the title of Empire, becoming the first Roman Emperor under the name Augustus. He ended the war with Parthia, fully annexed Egypt, further integrated territories into the empire, removed legions from the failing conquest of Britannia, reformed the tax system, developed the roads by establishing networks of roads, established an actual standing Roman army, created police and fire-fighting services and rebuilt much of Rome after it was damaged in Caesar's Civil War. Augustus would set the example for many emperors to come.

* **Events:**

### **NPC Events:**

* **Roman Empire:** The Romans suffer a loss to Latin-Germanics in the Battle of Teutoburg Forest, in which they are pushed behind the Rhine river, which forms the new border. After large amounts of expansion in the North Caucasus, Tolonra and Varsa tribes strike against the legions, taking a lot of lands. A "peace treaty" is made in which Rome gains slight land while the opposing tribes gain most of the former Roman lands. In 14 AD Augustus dies and so the second Emperor of Rome must be chosen. Augustus' adopted son, stepson and son-in-law Tiberius becomes the new emperor. A great general, his early reign is quite well, but he starts to enact a much more brutal and dictatorial reign compared to his predecessor. Conflict also starts arising between the Romans and the people of Judea and much more urgently, between Rome itself and the Parthian Empire.
* **Jesus of Nazareth:** Jesus would grow up, be baptized and start spreading the word of God, whom he is believed to be the son of. The people of Judea start listening more to him as he starts with his ministries. He also appoints many disciples and followers, most notably the twelve apostles. Jesus becomes a well-known figure, one that the Romans are not so fond of.
* **Korea:** A lot of chaotic conflicts occur, leading to the conquering of Ye, the changing of regimes in Mahan and Jinhan who change names to Baekje and Silla respectively, as well as the independence of Meongju and Kunam. Goguryeo acquires the areas around Wanggeom-seong from the Han dynasty in exchange for further co-operation.
* **Kyushu:** They explore and discover the Ryukyu Islands, along with the people living there. They start invading to take these lands as colonies but they are unstable and start to get pushed back off of the islands. A port they used to conduct these invasions and such grows into the city of Kagoshima.
* **Mayans:** After centuries of separation from the Maya Empire, the culture splits into Tlaxacala, Chiqua, Huatlate, Xicasna and a small Neo-Mayan culture by the border of the empire.
* **Aksum:** They invade the Dahlak archipelago and Damot, starting a war with both Damot and Himyar. They make great gains in Damot and a bloody naval battle is being fought in the Red Sea for supremacy over it. Aksum plans to defeat and conquer both of their enemies entirely.
* **Sentinelese:** Some migrators sail and land on the Nicobar Islands, part of Aceh. They invade and conquer the islands, with the Aceh government having no idea of this as the islands are a separated territory and almost an independent region.
* **Xiongnu-Han War:** War rages on and the Xiongnu gain an advantage when a man named Wang Mang attempts to overthrow the monarchy. He fails and starts a civil war under his self-declared Xin dynasty. Wang Mang is rather easily defeated and the Han are able to fight the Xiongnu back. Then Tagto Chanyu, the one who took after Unvu, dies without a clear successor, shaking the stability of the confederation. The Han convince the southern peoples, who have been caught in the frontlines for centuries to join them as a vassal kingdom. Han also conducts campaigns west in Sai lands, establishing another puppet regime, Linming.
* **Malagasy:** They settle more of Madagascar.
* **Malacca:** Malaccan armies invade and conquer Perak, which makes them more powerful and influential in the region of Southeast Asia.
* **Nuuktik:** Migration east and south continues.
* **Sedena:** Some expansion occurs.
* **Botocudo:** New South American culture on the east coat of Brazil.
* **Inuits:** Several Inuit tribes continue to make their way along the coast, settling new small little places to live in.
* **Picts:** They sign a peace agreement with the kingdoms on Great Britain, but break it after just a decade. Large swathes of the now more united tribes destroys Marn, with the help of Béfierste, who gets some small coastal land on the island. The Picts and them start working together to establish Pictish dominance, but this alliance seems rather fragile as both sides seek greater and greater power.
* **Hakodate:** They still decline due to Hakodate being weakened and having slight internal problems, like ruined harvests. They do however support the entry of Kaga into Dōhō Dōmei and later in 23 AD they open themselves up to the idea of a royal marriage between a prince and princess to secure friendship between the two kingdoms. Not yet however, as none of the Hakodatan princes and princesses are old enough to be married yet according to their law.
* **Yamato:** They become incredibly powerful, integrating Kii, Chiba and Awa into their empire, with the kings of those nations becoming governers of different territories. They also expand to border Kaga and start influencing them and several Toyai tribes a lot. The emperor makes a proposal that Yamato the city becomes the center of the trade market of Japan, as it is strategically important and that trade can flow from there to every single kingdom. Yamato seeks to end the conflict between Ataki and Miyagi as it forces goods going to Tani to take a trade cog from Chiba rather than a regular wagon along the roads.
* **Shizamaki and Nakusage:** As the kingdoms of Ataki and Miyagi establish a border, they almost immediately fall into conflict and war breaks out. The people in the north are cut off from the rest of the Toyai, whom were rather important trade partners to them. Two chieftains, Yeng and Mitsari both want to regain their lands, but Yeng wants the tribes to get help from Hana to do so. Mitsari and his followers believe that this would only lead to the conquering/vassalization of their people by the Hanans and justifies this point by pointing out the expansion made by Hana just before the whole Akitan-Miyagi war broke out. Thus he preaches that they should take back the land themselves. Yeng believes they would not be strong enough to do so. Conflict arises and two new rival kingdoms are formed. Shizamaki lead by Yeng and Nakusage lead my Mitsari. They go to war and they end up in the same conflict as Ataki and Miyagi. Yeng goes to seek help from Hana.
* **Chaos in India:** Satavahana conquers Saatum, which doesn't sit very well with the former Kassite kingdoms. When the Satavahanan emperor dies, a succession crisis occurrs as his son is infertile and sick, unable to rule. Oppurtunities are taken here as revolts break out in the Bengal region, in Saatum and a Tamil revolt north of Mysore. Said vassal and its master Ceylon also invade, along with the former Kassite kingdoms, where the conflict is slow and tedious due to the more mountainous terrain that the battles take place in. At the same time, Gujavatas king dies and since there was a marriage in the families of both Satavahana and Gujavata, the incapable king would've inherited both kingdoms and formed a personal union, but due to inability to rule. the realm falls into civil war between several princes. No one is capable of securing the kingdom completely and thus an agreement on the split is made, but the kingdoms still remain wary of eachother. During this collapse of Gujavata, the Indo-Greek Kingdom invades to take some lands. This is a bad idea however, as they leave themselves open to the Indo-Scythian minority to arm themselves and revolt, sparking war there as well.
* **Uru:** Tribes settle further north.
* **Borneo:** From the influence of Brunei's expansion comes a few new kingdoms: Surwana, Tangam, Kalimaga, Miri and Bantali.
* **Latin-Germanics:** After defeating the Roman legions they start to conquer lands from the Balts, Varsa and most notably Szitvar.
