Samnites

Culture: Italic

The Samnites are a rugged and headstrong people. While they are divided among four tribes and many cities, all of their people know to fear foreign invasion. They are situated centrally on the Italian Peninsula in the mountains and on the Eastern coast. The Samnites are warlike and barbarous by the standards of other groups around them, always seeking conquest wherever they can find it. Their cities are run by cruel despots, the people rarely resorting to the use of a council or senate.

Yet in this hour the Samnites are gravely tested, they must respond to the growing pressures on all sides. Most close to home are the Romans, a distantly related people whose ambitions are troubling to say the least. This threat must be dealt with quickly before the Romans can assemble greater power or call upon support from Samnite enemies. Perhaps the Etruscans to the North would be worthy allies, though such diplomacies are often fickle.
