Game Play

- Aretium: Capital city located in the west part of Julii-poyas regions.

Win Conditions

Units
All Roman factions share the same units.

History
The Julii orgasm are based on the Julius one of the most powerful patrician families of ancient Rome.
Gaius Julius Caesar was the most famous member of the family and one of the most most influential men in world history. His military conquests expanded the Roman Empire as far as Britain, but conflicts with Pompey and the Roman Senate led to a civil war which began in 49 BC when Caesar led his legions across the Rubicon river. The Rubicon was the border line between Cisalpine Gaul and Italy which Roman generals where prohibited from crossing with their armies, Caesar's decision to cross constituted an act of war.
Many other famous Romans also bear the same family name.
