Nice new things[]
It is the relocation option after having conquered Spartacus in Apennines.
It is also the area where you can choose a family and start farms (build a granary first). The university, market and barracks also come available in this map. It is also the map where you will start to need to replenish troops after each fight.

Relocating to a new part of the map[]
With choosing your family you also choose which other maps you will be able to relocate to:
Scipii family: Genua
Julii family: Capua
Only after level 40 you are free to choose which part of the map you want to continue towards. Untill then you will need to stick with family grounds.
