Can you please make Roman allies a slightly different red? Just so we know who is actually Roman, and who is an ally. And what is the difference between the actual Romans and their allies of the same colour?
@MagistraVitae3 күн бұрын
There isn't really any difference. We can only make a distincion between the city of Rome and the rest of Italy. The differnce is - Romans man legions, and the allies man alae (allied legions). The only difference between these legions is a slightly different number of men in each. If we used a different red for the allies, the whole of Italy would be in that other color. There are some difference between the different allies themselves, but there is no way (or point) of showing that on a map.

I suggest maybe colouring roman allies a slightly different red, so we know who is an actual roman, vs ally

It’s interesting that as the privileges of the Patricians were worn away and Plebians gained equivalent political rights, the structure of Roman voting which heavily favored Patricians and wealthy families remained durable until the Roman Emperors gradually phased out the democratic institutions and hastened the demise of the Patrician families.

1:02 One thing I love about Roman history is how slow it creeps onto the world stage. It's so slow that outside observers probably wouldn't see its conquests as all that significant until it was too late.

Currently the plan is to cover history up to the Fall of Western Rome. For now, we can't say what we will want to work on after that.
@williamandethan62746 күн бұрын
Are you going to cover Rome after the Punic and Greco-Roman wars? Like the Mithridatic, Social War, Gallic Wars, up to the Fall of Rome in 476, or something else?
@MagistraVitae5 күн бұрын
Yes, that's the plan!

Interbellum is often overshadowed by the first/second Punic war. It's fascinating how Carthage nearly collapsed, but immediately recovered to become the strongest power in its history.

I think Hannibal serving as the warhawk of Hasdrubal would have been much more successful. It would have given Rome someone they can do business with, who would have used the implicit threat of letting his nephew in law off the leash as real leverage in Spain. Hannibal was a tactical genius but wasn't as keen or patient with strategy. The fact that Hasdrubal was able to negotiate with Rome pretty much independent of Carthage tells me all I need to know about his political acumen/savvy and leadership. I think he and his father in law both understood the Roman zeitgeist better than Hannibal.
