#REDIRECT [[:Category:M2TW Factions|factions]]
There are seventeen playable factions in [[Medieval II: Total War]], five that are playable from the start and twelve that can be unlocked by successfully completing a campaign (or individually by exterminating that specific faction during a campaign).  There are five other non-playable factions including a rebel faction.
 
 
 
The feel of each faction in the game is different.  The degree of difficulty of the game is greatly influenced by the starting position of each faction.  Each faction has its own unique appearance, including differences to the type and appearance of units it can recruit. Each faction has its own set of character names. 
 
 
 
Further differences such as accents are leaders portraits are effected by which [[Cultures in Medieval 2|culture]] the faction belongs to.
 
 
 
Gameplay elements are effected by which [[Religion_in_Medieval_2|religion]] a faction belongs to.
 
 
 
== Culture and Religion ==
 
The possible cultures a faction can belong to:
 
*[[Northern European]]
 
*[[Eastern European]]
 
*[[Southern European]]
 
*[[Middle Eastern]]
 
*[[Greek]]
 
*[[Mesoamerican]]
 
 
 
The possible religions a faction can belong to:
 
*[[Catholic]]
 
*[[Orthodox]]
 
*[[Islam]]
 
*[[Heretic]]
 
*[[Pagan]]
