About Spartacus
Most of the sources on Spartacus contradict each other, but most of them agree
that he was Thracian gladiator, and an accomplished military leader. Spartacus
was bought by Lentulus Batiatus, the Gladiator School (Ludus) owner in Roman
city of Capua. His bravery and skills as a gladiator got him many admirers. He
participated in many gladiator fights and fought both gladiators and dangerous
wild animals. But life in Ludus was tough for him. He hated the way that the rich
Roman owners treated the slaves, and planned a revolt against the owners.
Spartacus-The War
In 73 B.C. Spartacus and 70 other gladiators escaped Ludus. They used kitchen implements to fight the
guards. They took the weapons from their gladiator school, and raided the area. Many more slaves joined
them after this. They retreated to mount vesuvius and set up camp there. The group chose Spartacus to
be the leader along with 2 of his fellow gladiators, Oenomaus and Crixus. At first the Romans didnt take
the situation very seriously. They sent a small force of about 3,000 soldiers. Spartacus repelled this small
force. Their bravados made many more slaves and shepherds join their force. Eventually they got up to
70,000 troops. Rome sent a few more small armies to stop the slaves, but met a painful bloody fate at the
hands of Spartacus's army. They began to raid nearby settlements, stealing weapons and armour. Marcus
Crassus and his men were sent to stop them. They fought a series of battle against Spartacuss army. By
the end of 71 BC Spartacus was left with a few men, and Crassus and his army were reinforced by
Pompey the Greats army. Before fighting Romans for one last time, Spartacus tried to escape to Sicily
but was betrayed by Sicilian pirates, who even though received payment from him abandoned Spartacus
and his men. Spartacus faced the Roman legions in his final battle along the bank of river Sele in
Senerchia territory (present day Italy) in 71 BC. He is believed to have been killed in the ensuing battle. At
the end of battle Roman army captured more than 6000 members of revolting force and brutally crucified
them along the Appian Way from Rome to Capua. Crassus and Pompey were rewarded for their role in
squashing the slave revolt and in 70 BC, both were made Consuls.
Julius Caesar
Introduction:
Gaius Julius Caesar (13th, July 100 BC-15th, March 44 BC) known as Julius Caesar, he was a roman politician,
general, and dictator. Additionally, he was a author of Latin prose. He was part of a crucial role in the events that led to the
downfall of the Roman Republic and the ascent of the Roman Empire. He died on the steps of the Senate at the midst of
political rivals. Julius Caesar is typically remembered as one of the most successful military brains in history and is credited
with developing the foundation for the Roman Empire. He was assassinated on March 15, 44 BC in Rome Italy where he
was stabbed to death. His spouses was Cornelia, Pompeia, and Calpurnia. His siblings were Julia Major, Julia Caesaris
Minor. His parents include Aurelia Cotta, and Gaius Julius Caesar. Some of his favorite quotes were, I love the name of
honor, more than I fear death, It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure
pain with patience, and It is better to create than to learn! Creating is the essence of life. As a politician, he made Roman
life more superior.
Dictator
Through a jumble of events, Caesar gradually went to war against Pompey, guiding soldiers across the river Rubicon on
January 10-11, 49 BC. With Pompey continuing alignment with himself among nobility, and the nobility increasingly
visualizing Caesar as a national threat, Civil War was proved to be unstoppable. But Pompey and his soldiers had no
chance against Caesar and his military campaign. By the resolution of 48 BC, Caesar pursued Pompey into Egypt, where
he was killed eventually. There, Caesar aligned himself among Cleopatra, with whom he had a son, named Caesarion.
Among his travel back to Rome, Caesar was made dictator for life and hailed as the father of his country. For Caesar and
additionally, his countrymen, his control and ruling proved critical in redeveloping Rome. he would serve only a years
service before his dreadful assassination, but in a small period Caesar tremendously transformed the empire. He relieved
debt and redeveloped the Senate by inducing the size and opening it up so that it better represented Romans as one.
Assassination
Caesar's redevelopment significantly enhanced his standing with Rome's lower and middle-class populations. Although, his popularity with the
Senate was another thing, envy and concern over Caesar's ascending power led to discomfort Among a great amount of politicians saw in him an
inspiring king. History has proved the Romans had no interest for monarchical rule. According to legend, by the time Caesar came to power, five
centuries have past since Rome had a ruler. Caesars wish to involve his initial enemies in the government benefited spell to his decent. Gaius
Cassius Longinus and Marcus Junius Brutus were initial enemies who had went to the Senate. Together, the two of them led the assassination of
Caesar, taking place on the Ides of March (the 15th), 44 BC where his life came to an end. Its not altogether certain whether Caesar knew ahead of
time of the plan to kill him. What was certain was that the conspirators, who dubbed themselves the liberator, needed to act quickly. By all
circumstances Caesar had plots to leave Rome on March 18 for a military campaign in what is now present day Iraq. There he wishes to avenge the
losses suffered by Crassus. Brutus involvement in the killing packed the most complicated backstory. He had first sided with Pompey in Romes
earlier civil war, but then he had been encouraged to side with the government after Caesars victorious battle. His mother, Servilia, also one of
Caesars admirables, following Caesars death, a power struggle swept Rome, leading to the end of the Roman Republic.
Early Years
A politically adept and popular leader of the Roman Republic, Julius Caesar greatly transformed what has become known as the Roman
Empire. This is because of the wide expansion and geographic lands and established its imperial system. While it has distantly been disputed, its
rounded that Julius Caesar was born in Rome, Italy on July 12th or 13th, 100 BC. Caesar excelled in Roman aristocrats, but his family was nowhere
near rich. When Caesar was just 16, his father Gaius Julius Caesar died. He still remained close with his mother, Aurelia. The Rome of Caesars
youth was insecure. An element of disorder flew around the republic, which had discredited its nobility and appeared unable to withstand its
considerable size of influence. At about the time of Caesars fathers death, Caesar made a sincere effort to side with the countrys nobility. His
marriage to Cornelia, the daughter of noble, had drawn out the ire of Romes dictator, Sulla, who demanded the young Roman to divorce his wife or
suffer the risk of losing his property. Caesar denied this, and found an escape in the military, serving first in the province of Asia, then in Cilicia.
Following the death of Sulla, Caesar returned back to Rome to begin his career in politics, as a prosecuting advocate. He relocated transitorily to
Rhodes to study philosophy, but amongst his travels there he was kidnapped thanks to pirates. In a vulnerable display of his conversation and
counter-insurgency methods, he convinced his captors to raise his ransom. He then after that organized a naval force to infiltrate them.
