Fall of the Republic - Rise of the Empire
Template:Mod Information Table (no map)
Fall of the Republic - Rise of the Empire (abbreviated to FRRE) does not exist as its own modification, but a compilation of three separate total conversions based around Rome: Total War: Barbarian Invasion. The First Triumvirate (abbreviated to TFT), 77 B.C. - Twilight of the Republic, and 58 B.C. - Caesar Imperator! each brings you into a different pivotal moment of the Roman Republic.

History
FRRE was first conceived in 2005 and was originally hosted on the Rome Total Realism forums until its demise, when the team migrated to Total War Center. The latest versions of TFT, 77 B.C. and 58 B.C. were released in August 2008 as an ISO file.
Description
The First Triumvirate
TFT is a compilation of five different campaigns allowing you to take command of each member of the First Triumvirate in different periods, as well as Vercingetorix of the Gauls or Orodes of Parthia. It features a new map, reskinned and newly added units, scripted events and more.
77 B.C. - Twilight of the Republic
As the title suggests, this mod begins in 77 B.C. and allows you to play as any faction in the game. It uses Rome Total Realism Platinum Edition as a base, but adds different factions, many historical characters, new traits and scores of new skins and units.
58 B.C. - Caesar Imperator!
Beginning two years after the formation of the First Triumvirate, this mod follows the historical career of Julius Caesar and his campaigns in Gaul all the way through to the Roman civil war and his ascension to Imperator. Only one faction is available to play, and the campaign is heavily scripted.
Features
Factions
There are different factions available to play in each of the modifications:
- The First Triumvirate features three different Roman campaigns allowing you to play as Crassus in Parthia, Caesar in Gaul and Pompey in the middle of the Civil War. Two other campaigns feature Gaul and Parthia.
- 77 B.C. is the only one of the three modifications with every faction playable and features new ones such as Ioudaia, the Nabatean Kingdom and the Yuezhi
- 58 B.C. features just one playable Roman faction, based around the historical figure of Julius Caesar.
