[@halo4megablock]

Roman soldiers were never called "legionnaires". They were called "legionaries" coming from the Latin Legionarius or Legionibus. Legionnaires is used to refer to modern military soldiers. For example, the French have a military branch known as the Foreign Legion made up of "legionnaires". However, a Roman soldier in his time would have been known as Legionarius, literally meaning "levy". It is often easy to get these two mixed up as modern films on the era tend to make the same mistake.

Okay, now instead of Latin, select "French." Now Translate... It should say *_légionnaire_* ...it's the exact same word. The "French Foreign Legion" are called légionnaires because that's how they refer to ancient Roman soldiers.

[@TristanHayes]

​@@robendert7617 Absolutely not true, the original Roman centuriae consisted of 100 men, the word Centuria comes from the Latin stem Centum (meaning one-hundred). Even when the number was changed to 80 legionaries instead of 100, there were 20 slaves assigned to the centuria so that it retained the hundred men to be known as a centuria. Yes, the first cohort during the IMPERIAL period, which is far after the original creation of the term during the founding of Rome itself, consisted of double centuria which had twice the number of men, 160 rather than 80, but that was ONE cohort in a legion and was the odd one out.

[@RevanTrajan]

I’ll start with what I caught on one watch through. They were not called Legionnaires but Legionaries. Centuries for the most of the imperial period numbered 80 men at full strength, not 100. Prime Recruitment ages were between the ages of 16 -22. There wasn’t a set age, it varied based on circumstances. The years of service varied between 16 and 25 years, again, it varied. Legionary’s wore Lorica hamata and segmentata and even Squamata during the height of their power. There is NO evidence whatsoever to say auxiliaries wore blue and green tunics only. The Testudo was used to assail walls and fortresses. It was not used in open battle. Soldiers were not always beaten to death for falling asleep, this was a very RARE punishment. Sulla did NOT want to be elected emperor. He voluntarily laid down his power.

[@TristanHayes]

@@gabrieldamato6966 Sulla "still dreamed of being emperor of all of the territories conquered by Rome. A dream that didn't come true due to his mysterious death." Utter horseshit!

It depends on what time period you're referring to, during the Republic, Praetors could lead legions, but that was no their primary job nor was it necessarily an often occurrence. Instead, during the Republican period of Rome, most legions were led in war by the two Consuls or by the governors of provinces who were known as Proconsuls / Propraetors. During the early years of the Empire, the Principate, most legions were led by Legates as mentioned by the other comment posted. During the later years of the Empire, various other titles were used ranging from Dux to Strategos depending on where and when in history you're talking about.

The Romans were smart enough to know that victory was never assured, nothing was guaranteed and as much as possible avoided battling for anything that could be got by diplomacy. One form of diplomacy they used was the fear factor of employing their legions. That is how the Roman World was kept together, by that fear factor. Because the moment you commit in life, it is not anymore what others think about you, but your are all there for the viewing. Like Russia, it can posture that it is a great military power, projecting the fear factor. But if Russia commits a sizeable amount of its army in some international conflict then it would be exposing its potential power for all to see and should it fail at it, it would be exposed for the lesser army it actually is.
