One could say that the bureaucracy becomes rather byzantine

That's fine, they just need to conquer more.

Literally my Europa Universalis strategy

Bro that's literally how the empire collapsed into endless civil wars.

Heh, what's wrong with doing more of what's already got you into trouble ? Look around, everyone's doing it nowadays.
I'm sure it'll work out eventually (no).

A few more feasts for the senators should fix this issue.

Legit the worst part of any WC in EU4 : the rebels... everywhere.... all the time..... the lag....
So you build castles every two provinces

The lesson to be learned from Risk: Taking territory is easy, holding it is hard.

Rome found a clever way to get the governors to really enjoy governing and managing the economy (they got to be filthy rich from all the bribe and tax plundering)

Raise the tax that will solve everything

The patriciand being tax exempt was a large part of the problem. Much of Rome's economy was fueled by regular conquests.

Just keep conquering, then, idiot. Never have to pay for the economy after the war if there is no "after"!

Clearly she hasn't played Rome Total War

Then the rebels that overthrow their conquerors inherit the debt, and try to pay for it by becoming conquerors themselves. So the cycle goes.

Sounds like this "money" thing is more trouble than it's worth

Every 4x game I play always ends up with a big war followed by a period of peace that generally lasts most of the game

This makes me want to start another Total War campaign

That's the problem with civilization, that dang economy keeps getting away

I came. I saw. I got a headache.

Maybe you could disband some of the legions and let them return to civilian life? Surely we don't need 12 of them in every province?

Legate: *visible rage*
