    If I missed or misspelled any region or even any faction then mention it and I'll update the list to include/correct it! If someone with a bit of spare time could do region lists for mods or extensions I'd be grateful, and I'm sure some others would be too!

    EDIT: heres a map I found on google for RTW:

    Dude, (The Maps)

    Someone needs a girlfriend.
    Passing on to describe the way in which Napoleon employed ‘principles’ or ‘ingredients’ for the prosecution of War, it must from the outset be understood that his strategical and tactical systems followed no closely ruled pattern. Every operation was unique; no two were ever quite the same. However, the underlying every Campaign and battle were certain fundamental, which were applied according to circumstances.
    ‘Strategy is the art of making use of Time and Space,’ wrote the Emperor”


    -from the Campaigns of Napoleon by David G. Chandler, Pages 161-162

    Then I suggest you read the first post. Or play the game. That should help you.

    I modded my game so that factions start with an equal amount of territories (5-7) and the rebels have a lot less territories. I give even bigger wars. Since i modded my game, Pontus versus Seleucids is more than awesome!

    Might want to change the title, to the correct spelling.

    yes, P R O V I N C E S.

    Also surely if one starts a campaign one will see their own provinces?
