	'''The Achaean league''' has only just been formed from the cities of Achaea proper. it will take a statesman of Aratus' stature to widen the league to the rest of the Peloponnese. In the meantime it must survive as best it can.

	'''Rhodes, Syracuse and Pergamum''' are lumped together in a loose alliance which includes the smallet Greek ~~City States~~. Pergamum de jure is a part of the Seleucid dominions but de facto has become almost autonomous on the death of Lysimachus. Rhodes is a trading city and is allied to the Ptolemies at this time. In the next century these two states (Pergamum and Rhodes) will benefit from the demise of the Seleucids in the west.

	'''Rome''' is bound for a united and Roman Italy driving out Gauls and greeks alike. Rome has lots of money, a large population and a low maintenance army, individually not the best and may suffer defeats but is quite capable of winning the last battle. Rome must eventually deal with its possible rival Carthage.		'''Rome''' is bound for a united and Roman Italy driving out Gauls and greeks alike.

	The Spartan Hoplite in this mod is not the killing machine of a certain recent film but he still is a formidable opponent if supported properly. he is expensive to produce and takes a longer time to train (attempt to simulate a dwindling citizen base). Sparta will have to fall back on the cheaper and more numerous perioici, freed helots and mercenaries. Sparta is surrounded by enemies, short of men and money.

	This mod is based on DimeBagHo's excellent mod of RTW, XGM or Extended Greek Mod, and aims to go even further in developing the Hellenistic factions and providing Sparta as its own complete culture! Focusing and attempting to emulate the problems of unity the the Greeks faced, first in opposition to Macedonia and secondly to Rome and thirdly to limit the expansion options of the Achaean and Aetolian Leagues and of course Sparta. Hopefully if you play as any one of these small players of the Hellenistic World you may see what problems they faced in historic reality.
