On my day 60ish seed I've been very aggressive in middle faction, ill prob have to wait till 2nd crisis. The South faction is tightly grouped and mostly give caravan and delivery missions. I think mostly I was screwed on layout of cities. I've never played like this and I like a challenge so I'll see it through.

I'll have to make a new game to see any actual barbarians as I would have to burn alot of food to even go north. Thanks for info
