the idea is that the "harbors" are individual territories which border the fleets and the land they are in

I don't have much time to analyse this at the moment but...that Eagle insignia is not the one used by the Roman Empire.

It seems like the two headed eagle used by the Byzantine Empire at a later stage and still used today by some countries like Russia as their coat of arms.

You should put an Imperial Eagle there.

Will comment on the rest later.

maybe there could be some larger Eastern/Western Rome bonus.

That seems to be the same time period

And if youre using ports, maybe put one in Byzantine/Constantinople

I also think there should be attack routes going through some of the islands in the med.

The West Med fleet can only attack 2 ports?

If so - then I suggest that you need to add a port to Gibraltar...

Also the East Med fleet should be able to attack Carthago but not the other fleet?

Like the idea Lone... Great start.

What about a bonus for controlling both Rome and Byzantium/Constantinople -representing that the player has unified both halfs of the Roman Empire?
Maybe just a +2 or +3?

I realy want to help that these map be acurate,and present what name of these topic says-ROMAN EMPIRE.
Only big problem is that you ignore these and want to create map who not present roman empire.
Its yours decision,do you want help or not.
If you want proper names and proper provinces,just say YES,if you not then you say NO,these is mine last atempt to help.
