Rome generally has a strong opening Ancient Era and has to grow on that during the Middle Ages. Were you able to gain total control of your starting landmass and grow from there or did you have lingering problems to overcome? Make any big moves?

I'm still afloat! I'm way behind the Sumerians in tech, but about caught up with everyone else, thanks to a monopoly on banking and a near-monopoly on magnetism. I went to war with the Hittites around the end of the middle ages and eventually wiped them out. I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm going to start a prebuild for TOE; if I can get it, I may be able to get to fission in time for the UN. If not, I may be slogging along toward domination.
