What is really strange in impossible, are the alliances the AI's form against you. I frequently wage deffensive wars against three or more AI's. They are restless, and always seem to know when your main army is far from home...

Well, in impossible, the AI normally has a lot more troops than you (because they get more gold and ressources in the first place, and spend them like water on crappy troops). At which point, using their special power to know just how many troops YOU have (which is not so special, you can do the same by watching the Army Size graph), they decide that you are an easy target, and declare war. So it's not that the AI deliberately gang up on you, it's just that they all independantly decide that you are the weak link and it is time to kick you out
You can prevent it by finding a way to match their troop number. If you can stay at their level (or better yet above), they'll mostly leave you alone. Of course, that probably means taking Order 3 and keeping a few hundred chaff at your capital doing nothing, but it does work.
