Als er an das Ruder kam, waren die Römer auf der italischen Halbinsel kaum Herren der Alpen, auf der griechischen kaum des Hämus (Balkan) und der Küstenstreifen am Adriatischen und am Schwarzen Meer; nirgends reichte ihr Gebiet an den mächtigen Strom, der das südliche Europa vom nördlichen scheidet; sowohl das nördliche Italien wie auch die illyrischen und pontischen Handelsstädte und mehr noch die zivilisierten Landschaften Makedoniens und Thrakiens waren den Raubzügen der rohen und unruhigen Nachbarstämme stetig ausgesetzt.
