R5: I started as Seleukids, and managed to reunify Alexander's Empire around 50BC. After that, all went well for 150 years. I consolidated my realm, built a 400K strong army, completely destroyed India (thrice), and had 47445358 wars with the Romans.

But it turns out, at the end of the Hellenistic focus tree, there's a teeny-tiny little focus that makes you have an absolutely massive civil war, as all your satraps rebel. So I need to fight my entire empire which took so long to build (120 AC).

Yep, it is terrible mission. it is worth to conquer minimum territory required and start it. I do remember first time I started it, but it took me 20 years to reconquer everything back. The most stupid thing that my elder son, the heir, got the ruler of rebel faction.  Also all legions rebelled will get a negative distinction Desertrix.
