In the center of the Peninsula are the powerful Etruscan League, the Sabini and the ancient nation of the Umbri. Even further to the north are teeming hordes of Celtic Insubres, Cenomani, Boii and Senones who have invaded across the Alps into the Po Valley, and entirely obliterated the old Etruscan dominion there, settling in an area neighbouring by the warlike Ligures, the Veneti and the Rhetic tribes. To the south are the hardy Sabellian tribes collected on some powerful leagues: Sabelli, Samnites, Lucani and Brettii. On the southern Adriatic coast are the Ipygian tribes, grouped in two major confederations: the Apuli and the Messapii. Some of the ancient Greek cities still survived and are collected in the "Italiote League" led by Tarentum. The rich Sicily is still contended by Chartage and the great city of Syracuse. News has arrived that Alexander of Epirus, uncle of Alexander the Great, has just landed with ambitions for the whole peninsula.
