Tiberius was a sick bastard. Diddled around with little kids, calling them “his Minnows” then throwing off a cliff on the isle of Capri.

The story is good. The AI is horrible. I often find myself obsessing over the disturbing faces and melting features or the limbs turned in unnatural positions and it really takes me out of the story. This channel would be 100x bigger if they stopped using AI art.

As far as I’m concerned, Agrippa was the first true Emperor or Rome. Octavian would’ve never made without, Marcus. Julius Caesar knew this.

It is said that Varus became the victim of a smear campaign. Arguing that he faced a perfidious and 'bloodthirsty' enemy. That does not prove competence. Also ignored, the wanton massacre of the Usipetes by Cesar. Plutarch, over 400.000 dead. Gambling debts may have been a factor. And if Roman generals were such altruists, why had an Antony Cicero's tongue and hands nailed to the rostrum. Harped on, the fact that the barbarians occasionally run out of frogs for their sacrifices to Týr. Not that any religious motivation was required. The mob poured liquid gold into the buccal opening of a tax collector during the Ephesian Vespers. Similar story with diplomatic notes: the great king of Persia had the members of a Greek envoy mutilated (cut off noses, ears and other distal parts). Alexander had to settle them in an out of the way place. All in all, no shortage of 72 point headlines. I lost count on how often Arminius is branded a traitor. Nobody claims that he attended Plato's academy. Was Varus framed? Goading a taxman (which Varus essentially was) into demonstrating his not existing military mettle was a shrewd move, particularly for someone handicapped by barbarian brain size. A conflict existed between the conservatives (the Senate) and the populists (who advocated wealth redistribution at the expense of third parties, preferably disenfranchised). Vacated land was a common bargaining chip. Varus was associated with Augustus, a populist. The feuds of the 19th century, rife with lyric descriptions of that battle, should be dealt with in that time frame - including the one by von Platen whom Heine lampooned. Was Varus' son used as scapegoat? Probably not more so than anyone else in a world in which promotion depended in part on family connections. Even as Varus' son he was dealt far better cards than the average Roman (the people were occasionally granted a sacrifice). He certainly escaped proscription (wanted, dead or alive), the usual fate of losers in the late Republic. Death scene: even Saul fell on his sword (when his armor bearer was not up to the task). Arminius' makeshift alliance consisted of 5 tribes (out of a possible total of maybe 80). The wicker cages are usually attributed to the Celts. 'Varus fought in front of his troops.' There was no clear frontline if the Roman legions, caught on the march, were stretched out over a distance of 14 miles. No traitor was required to know when a Roman legion was must vulnerable. Maroboduus, whose kingdom had only been saved by the Illyrian uprising, died in Roman custody.

What a strange way to rewrite history and fan fiction. Germanicus was also a Claudian. His father was Tiberius’ brother. Yes, he was out with the legions, but that was also how Tiberius became famous. Tiberius retired in 6 BC, against Augustus’ wishes. He was made essentially Co-Princeps in 12AD, nearly 2 years before Augustus died. He was also married to Augustus’ only child against his will. He did adopt Germanicus and had him on the road to succession before he was murdered by Calpurnius Piso, whom he was feuding with. Only Tacitus attributes the murder to Tiberius and he was writing 100 years later during the reign of Trajan, long after the Julio-Claudians faded to memory.

I have a question when did the leader of rome start calling themselves emporer was it somin tiberius decided to call himself or was there a specific date that Augustus was named emporer
@Carelock19 күн бұрын
They had many titles, Imperator was something like “victorious general,” Princeps was “first citizen.” Neither took what we call emperor. No Roman ever did. Domitian took on the trappings of Eastern Kingship in the 3rd century. Sulla was the first citizen with emperor type powers, imo. Caesar was dictator for life much like Sulla. Augustus created Princeps in the constitutional settlement of 27 BC. The first “Roman Emperor,” was Charlemagne. Complicated answer to what seems like a simple question.
