In the onset of the Imperial Campaign, the Julii are still very high-ranking, but perhaps not as prosperous as they once were. Based in central Italy and tasked with the job of dealing with the various barbaric tribes north of Rome, they obey the Senate's orders with a vengeance - for now. The Julii are one of three notable patrician families in the early Roman Republic. Being one of the three Roman families, the House of the Julii will receive missions from the Senate, and will be forced to deal with the consequences of not completing them. Julii comes after the name Julius for each family member.
The House of Julii is one of the three first playable Roman factions along with The House of Scipii and The House of Brutii in Rome: Total War. After all, the man who controls Rome rules the world.and one day, I will be Emperor.' Going down that road means dealing with all my rivals: the Senate, the Greeks, those Carthaginian elephant-riders, the Scipii and the Brutii families too. This war against the Gauls won't last long, and when it's done, I've got plans. No, Rome doesn't need unwashed barbarians at her gates! So, that's why I'm here, the leader of the Julii: to bring Roman order to stinking Gauls. Did you think I'd be out here on the frontier without good reason? Yes, Rome needs a strong frontier. My grandfather hated them too, even before they put out his eyes.
