King Agis of Sparta
for King Agis of Sparta in Total War: Imperium Divided
Suggested by roma_007

In 270 BC, the rising power of Rome stands divided. As the Republic expands across the known world, internal rivalries between noble houses—Julii, Brutii, and Scipii—threaten to tear it apart from within. While enemies like Carthage, Germania, and Egypt gather strength beyond the borders, the Senate manipulates events in the shadows, igniting civil conflict among its own champions. From the icy forests of Germania to the deserts of Egypt, and finally to the gates of Rome itself, this sweeping epic chronicles the brutal politics, legendary battles, and fractured loyalties that define the birth of empire. As war consumes the Republic, one question remains: will Rome be united by loyalty... or destroyed by ambition?
