Between every red square I was seeing these little orange circles

[@extramisc_etc]

Is your specialty roman history? Because that is a very unique idea, I haven't seen any other channels like this. Very good job though, keep it up!

Cicero was a consul? Nice. Watching all these Roman Senate videos in a row makes me feel like Im watching a movie. Cicero comes in, is a good guy and at the end, gets to be a consul. Caesar vs Bibulus. Caesar wins! Kato causes a shitstorm! Senate demands him to be released! I would watch that in the movie theater. :D

[@Bomstep]

I thought Cicero was paranoid about the Catiline executions because after your consulship is over, you can be charged with whatever crime you committed while in office, despite the fact he was able to use Senatus Consultum Ultimum, and he was convinced he would be tried and found guilty "As tribune Clodius introduced a law threatening exile to anyone who executed a Roman citizen without a trial. Cicero, having executed members of the Catiline conspiracy four years before without formal trial, and having had a public falling-out with Clodius, was clearly the intended target of the law. Cicero argued that the senatus consultum ultimum indemnified him from punishment, and he attempted to gain the support of the senators and consuls, especially of Pompey. When help was not forthcoming, Cicero went into exile. He arrived at Thessalonica, Greece on May 29, 58 BC.[35] The day Cicero left Italy into exile, Clodius proposed another law which forbade Cicero approaching within 400 miles (640 km) of Italy and confiscated his property. The bill was passed forthwith, and Cicero's house on the Palatine was destroyed by Clodius' supporters, as were his villas in Tusculum and Formiae.[35][36] Cicero's property was confiscated by order of Clodius, his mall on the Palatine burned down, and its site put up for auction. Clodius had a temple of Libertas(Liberty) built on the site of Cicero's house so that if by any chance Cicero returned he would not be able to take the site back, and he also tried to sell Cicero's other property, but there were no takers.[37]"

The video said Cicero was concidered a hero for executing the prisoners during the conspiracy. What did he do to fall so far out of favor that the Senate wouldn't help him?

[@Serlp1]

aFuturnaught He made the populares (Clodius was a tribune) and Ceasar his enemies refusing to support the aforementioned reform.

brilliant.

[@vicnorma462]

Interesting, nice video!

[@noognig8507]

Awesome videos! Hope to hear more on rome

[@fuchsiafreud]

There were no soft "c"s in latin. So all the Cs are pronounced like "K"s. "Fasces" is faskes "caesar" is kaesar (which will sound familiar to any german speaker), and, believe it or not, "Cicero" is pronounced Kikero.

[@gabrielfernandes8401]

+facetubemyassplug Please don't crush my dreams.

[@JustMe-wm9zg]

In one side that's true, but There are two kinds of pronouncing in Latin: 1.Classical - older, reconstructed on the basis of literary works from first century B.C. "C" in front of (a,o,u)=K-You said that 😊 2.Tradicional pronouncing- younger, arise after the fall of the Western Roman Emire. "C" in front of (e,ei,ae,y)=C.... So both ways of reading are good but you made a mistake saying that Cicero isn't right,but that's is samesame like Kikero😊!

[@Cha0sLord93]

+facetubemyassplug Please don't do that

[@patrickmcdonald4920]

well done keep it up!

[@MiguelXavierMartinez]

i think that cicero had the right idea on the prisoners.

[@bjorkmgork]

You have created something that I really enjoy! I won't give money, but I will allow adverts through the adblock.

[@RobertDani89]

Romans only had 10 month until Caesar, they didnt count the winter ones. So who was in charge during winter?

[@josephnardone1250]

There is an error about the Consuls. Only rich people could serve in the Senate. The Roman Senate was a more or less heredity group of rich people who ruled Rome. The average citizen could not sit in the Senate. The Consuls were elected by the Senators not the public at-large. Like in the US, where the Electoral College elects the US President and the public be damned! Caesar changed the composition of the Senate by adding newly rich people who supported him. In general, the free Roman citizens were oppressed by the rich Roman Senators similar to today where the rich run for public office supported by the rich campaign contributors.

[@paulalderson6920]

Great series except for the twangy noise in the background. Very distracting.
