Great work, as usual. I have two little questions. 1. I thought the battle of Nicopolis took place in 48 BC. Is Wikipedia wrong here? 2. I' m a bit confused about Caesar's envoy who is intercepted by Pharnaces. On that point, Calvinus had already sent two legions to Caesar. Was it a case of outdated orders? Thank you very much
@petervoller3404
@petervoller3404 3 жыл бұрын
@@pablovera1932 You're right about the date, the narration says 48BC, but the video says 47BC; that's a mistake, thanks for pointing it out though! Just to clarify that, the Battle of Nicopolis happens in late 48BC at the same time that Caesar is under siege in Alexandria. The battle of Zela happens in the summer of 47BC. Sorry for any confusion there. Not sure I'm following your second question. Just to give context, Nicopolis happens in late48BC, the same time as when Caesar is in Alexandria under siege. Caesar requested reinforcements earlier on in 48BC, which Calvinus sent him, two Legions, leaving one Legion with Calvinus in Asia. Caesar then asks *again* for reinforcements in late 48BC, by which time Domitius is at Nicopolis. That might have cleared up the issue, but if I haven't answered what you were getting at, feel free to ask again and I'll give it another punt!

@Black Wolf Though "dictator" had other connotations during the roman republic; a dictator was an elected position by the senate that had absolute power to act as it saw fit to confront a particular crisis, stepping down once it had passed. Some people were named "dictator for life" such as Sulla (who later stepped from it). However, it is true that Caesar did bend the ruled of the senate to suit himself, but corruption was quite rampant at the final stages of the republic. And let us not forget that the plebs loved him, which isn't the norm when it comes to modern day dictators. All in all it's a tricky one, since it's not so white and black
@Mrkabrat
@Mrkabrat 3 жыл бұрын
@Black Wolf I merely pointed out that the meaning of "dictator" has changed across time; what the roman republic calls "dictator" and what we call "dictator" is quite different, even if the word is the same. The reason why Brutus and co saw fit to assasinate Caesar wasn't beacuse he was a dictator (there had been many who hold the title of "dictator" during the roman republic), but because they thought heposed a threat to the republic. As for my "black and white" remark; I must have interpreted your words as simply vilifying Caesar. Thus I have explained that, while he did bend rules, he dif bring prosperity to rome, introduced reforms and was liked by the common people and his troops, thus to say that he was "All bad" or "all good" is to narrow it down too much
@Mrkabrat
@Mrkabrat 3 жыл бұрын
@Black Wolf I belive you misunderstand me, for I haven't been trying to devote you by any stretch of the imagination. I belive that rather than "dictator" the word you are looking for is "tyrant", since it was one of the accusations levelled against Caesar and due to the whole "dictator" word leading to confusion (i.e; it's meaning in this context can be misinterpreted). What I was trying to say though, is that I personally don't belive Caesar was a tyrant (i'll use this term to avoid confusion) for he, while bending rules, did try to gain legitimacy through the laws of the republic and, again, the common people loved him (something that's not that common with tyrants). Then again, it's not uncommon for dome tyrants to create a cult of personality around them. So maybe he did plan to become a king that ruled with an iron fist, and thus tried to gain the peoples trust and legitimacy first, or maybe he wanted to introduce much needed reforms and was tripped by senators.
@Mrkabrat
@Mrkabrat 3 жыл бұрын
@Black Wolf Must me my writting way. My thoughts are, to make to it plainly; -In my personal opinion, he wasn't a tyrant -I do belive he did bend rules, but many in the senate too did this -Since he was assasinated it's difficult to say if he would have decided to seize absolute power, but it's my personal belief that he would have returned the power back to the senate once things had calmed down enough Basically; My personal opinion based on what is known of his actions. Nothing more, nothing less

Caesar’s military exploits never cease to impress. The man was a genius. Rarely is the mix of initiative, bravery, competency and efficiency bestowed upon one human being. He must have known we would still be talking about him now. This series is my favourite so far, captivating

1:10 Who here got Decisive Battles of the Ancient World flashbacks? Also, does anyone know the music that was played at that time? Also, I learnt something new today - that that documentary series got it's graphics from Rome Total War (although I so much more used to Decisive Battles one that I think of it as the original, despite that it isn't the original). Another also (well, two more). Firstly, it'd good to have decent aminations. Secondly, am I the only one who still has nostalgia for the old graphics?
