The Iron Age is the third age the player progresses through, and allows research of technologies and building styles that represent Rome in the very early A.D. years. The Iron Age is also the first age where the player will need to put in 11 or more Forge Points in order to research technologies in most cases. In a good estimate, an average player could reach the Iron Age within the first 2 weeks of gameplay. The Iron Age includes seven provinces: Badakus, Paruuch, Ruug, Karchagu, East-Nagach, West-Nagach, and Maktaba.

It is preceded by the Bronze Age and followed by the Early Middle Ages. The Iron Age is the period generally occurring after the Bronze Age, marked by the prevalent use of iron. This era occurs during the triumphs of the Roman Empire.
