So yesterday a found an entertaining if INSANELY implausible TL about a Latin city state, Roma, who managed to conquer all of Italy and then Europe on the span of a few centuries.

Well, I don't know about you guys, but I know a wank when a see one . In any case, is it at all plausible that some Latin city-state could rise to prominence in Europe?
