Roman Republic

 * Government:
 * Consuls:
 * (60) Vetus Betum Bellus (126 BC to 110 BC)
 * (61) Marius Pilus Vetonus (110 BC BC to present)
 * Policies:
 * Marian Reforms: Under Consul Marius, the Roman Legions recieved a complete restructure after the start of the  Roman-Hellenic conflicts to solve and improve the Legions on flexibility and adaptability along with equipment. Proletarianisation of the army is already underway to quickly refill lost numbers. The state would also issue standard equipment to all but the veterans (who would be able to afford their own at this time). The navy, after suffering numerous defeats at sea, began to look into Greek tactics and shipbuilding in order to improve their navy.
 * Military: There is approximately 20 legions, each contains 5000 to 6000 legionaries each further divided into cohorts with 500 to 600 men each. There are about 10 auxiliary legions as well (3,000 each) also containing equipment like archers and artillery. The number of legions remained the same after the Punic War.
 * 106,000 Legionaries
 * 30,000 Auxiliaries
 * Economy: Gold and silver coins are minted around the Republic, with a new coin minted for every new Consul.
 * Demographics
 * Population: +9,000,000
 * Rome (Capital): 150,000
 * Neapolis: 50,000
 * Caralis: 20,000
 * Atvasium: 100,000 (indirect)
 * Other cities: 1,180,000
 * Rural areas: 7,500,000
 * Ethnicity: Remaining latins in the region are exceptionally rare over the past centuries and were held in high regard within the tribal population, sometimes ruling as the regional nobility class. Latin language in the region itself is extinct but names and ethnicity still lives on in pockets. Explanation for nobility is that Latins were employed in elite units that were held in high regard and retired veterans commonly built a nobility status. They were absorbed into the Roman identity, but they make up a lot of the ruling class since their overthrow of the monarchy.
 * 50% Roman, 42% Atlasii (disputed), 8% other.
 * Religion: 80% Cult of Romulus, 20% Other
 * Literacy rate: 14%
 * Events
 * (continued, lets hurry this along) Roman-Hellenic Conflicts (137 BC): Upon many victories, there was also failures. Being adaptable, the Romans started to take the best of every culture and combine it to their societies. The Greeks during the Roman-Hellenic Conflicts were no different. Under Marian Reforms, the Roman Army improved themselves to reduce losses from records of previous battles and adopting tactics, equipment, and formations based upon which is most efficient for the time and area. Not to mention their frequent losses at sea had allowed the Romans to learn Aegean ship building via reverse engineering. The Romans, with their more powerful navy, set out to blockade between the Balkans and Anatolia. Meanwhile on land, the newly improved Romans sent 5 legions from Italy to invade Sparta by the sea (totalling 13 legions in Greece). Unfortuately, a third of the legions were wiped out before they gained a good foothold onto the land by Spartan valiance. But after breaking Spartan lines, they swept across the region in an attempt to make a swift occupation from the south-west peloponesia (or however you spell it) all the way to (OTL) Athens. 2 Roman Legions stationed in Macedonia were also sent south again to attempt to take Thebes and Athens (and to meet with friendlies that was sweeping across Sparta). 4 Roman Legions were sent to take coastal cities off of Anatolia (to make it to Ipsus) with assistance from the invigorated Roman navy, who managed to win and secure the sea once again. While 2 Legions were sent to capture Thrace as well.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Gaul: Any friendly tribes are welcome to join us peacefully, but we shall take more of Gaul for our realms.
 * Sparta: Your surrender and/or annexation will be nice.
 * Aegeans: We demand surrender and hand over of all Sicily, Balkan lands, and Coastal Anatolia.
