How did The Roman Republic start Collapsing? - History of the Roman Empire - Part 7
Ever since the end of the Third Punic War, two things had been true about the Roman Republic: try as it might, it was plagued by military conflict, and, it was collapsing like a sandcastle under high tide with each strike of the sword. By the mid-first century BC, there was little hope left for the Republic as the Romans knew it. And one man, born at the turn of the century, would be the final piece in the crumbling puzzle

It was due mainly to internal corruption, loss of core values, and the rise of the generals. Cover this every semester in my courses. Great topic. More importantly is how the Romans were then willing to accept an authoritarian system to bring stability. There were of course other factors as well.

Largely agree however often rarely mentioned is the gradual devaluation of their coins the denarius and sestertius, at Rome’s height during the Pax Romana they where 90% silver towards the end of the empire they where mostly cheap allow dipped in silver.

Historyof ages with no sense - you my redard friend have no idea of the history which got distorted( you tube deletes all my conversation but i record every bit) when did ancient romans firstly did any good for of cause of help for humans, animals, women, children, etc. The so called education you took was an absolute BS. Generals in roman empiire were non existence because it was one rule and i think you took either wrong turn or wrong course which is very clear with peoples like you and with other facts where killing or be killed was the norm only to do what, please everyone. Empire building was learned & tought by the ancient INDIANS which has many proof now as per many new evidence. Romans were not what would anyone know as they dont consider themselvew as european cause they came way way afar.

All good points until the last one. They were not willing to accept the authoritarian system to bring stability. Ha! They literally died by the thousands if not by hundreds of thousands throughout two long civil wars were Octavian finally won. He was a authoritarian figure who bribed the mob and his armies and placated the senate to “allow” them to pass all his “bills” or they would have been killed but also as to no create another civil war.. 🤣🤷🏼‍♂️ they were willing to accept whatever they could that brought stability- a republic, a democracy or a militarocy empire 🤷🏼‍♂️ all the wolves and sheepdogs died until anyone left were the ones who did as they were told or too tired from all the death to mater. “They were willing to accept an authoritarian system.” 🤣 yeah…. Not saying their republic was anything holy because it was just as bad as the imperial one near the end. But Rome near ate itself alive to determine who would be on top and then it was a slow dissolution of the senatorial powers after that by each proceeding Emperor. Also most early emperors assumed “senatorial roles” to extend their powers (done individually) once they proved themselves or had strong enough position in Rome to do so.

A peasant rabble will always meet it's match with a trained Roman legion. The Boudican revolt as well as the Spartacus rebellion were a few to learn this lesson. Discipline and training as well as a firm grasp of army tactics, logistics and mobility always win against a shaky, emotional, lawless rabble. When the tide turns, it's usually sudden and HORRIBLE for those that took up arms against Rome.

@amymason156 Жыл бұрын

This is why the most successful rebellions were led by ex-soldiers. Though, I think this understates the value of heavy armour and sharp, agile weapons, without which the Romans never would have made it into Britain, much less survived the rebellions, no matter how much of those other qualities they had. Notably, Roman legions were devastated when facing even undisciplined and poorly trained troops when those troops had fine weapons and war mounts, unless their greatest generals were in the lead.

@@Judge_Magister Nothing more than 'hardy hunters'? LOL!!' I've heard the accounts by Roman generals about them and it doesn't match up with what you're saying. They were feared for their ferocity in battle, their size and skills in ambush. They destroyed an entire legion, to the last man by luring the Romans into a 20 mile long wooded area. The Germanic tribes were not a "rabble" and comparing them to the EXAMPLE given is a demonstration of a lack of basic comprehension. I gave TWO specific examples, both UPRISINGS. I was not making a case for CONQUEST, which the Romans met their match countless times. I would have pointed out the Germanic tribes and also what happened to the Romans when they faced horse archers in great numbers, again, complete slaughter. The Romans WERE persistent, though...especially in the case of Carthage.

The Republic started to crumble with the social wars. With Sulla and Marius completely using king like styles of ruling to get thier means across and with it demeaning republic Institutions. Maruius was elected by the people though im sure he would give up his rule had the people asked him to whilst sulla was different in that regard. both very burtal, but sulla was the politician unlike the solider marius and that did him no favors in winning the roman elite class. There was a republic loyalist in spain after the defeat of marius with him was the last true abled guy to bring stability back to a growing corrupt goverment, his name was Sertorius who lead a large scale rebellion against the sulla backed crooked senate and what a phenominal story of moive like porportions, unfortunately he to was overwhelmed in rebellion and the "republic" sent assassins and deceit a style was considered below them for a once honrable instution . He beat the best generals they threw at him and was done in by the game of politics, sad that good men who with good intentions are always betrayed. So that was begining of the end of the rebublic. It will be with the brillaint general Cesar himself that would bring the end of the republic and with his heir the age of empire.

🇮🇹💪🏻THE VALUES OF ROMANITY part 0 The ancient Romans had for a long time been industrious and rough peasants, intent only on cultivating their fields, fighting against their enemies, carrying out the practices of religion. The old Cato, in his book on Agriculture, gives us an idea of their customs: « When our ancestors wanted to praise man, they said: - Good worker, good farmer - and this praise seemed the most great that could be done". Cato also quotes some of their old proverbs: "A bad farmer is he who buys what the earth cannot supply"; "A bad steward is he who does in the day what he can do in the night"; "The cultivation of the fields is so done that if you delay one thing, you will also delay all the others." And Cicero has Cato say "The delights that agriculture experiences seem to me to be the most in conformity with the life of the truly wise man". Hard to work, hard to earn, thrifty and orderly, these peasants had been the strength of the Roman armies. For a long time they too had been the predominant element in the assemblies of the people, and had thus dominated in the republic. They lived in small, one-story houses, built very roughly. The main room, the atrium (where the sacred hearth of the family was located had an opening at the top through which the rain fell; all household goods, furnishings, and domestic furnishings were reduced to chests and wardrobes for storing things, wooden stools, rough beds, and very little else. The nourishment was simple, composed especially of boiled wheat and barley, bread and legumes; meat was eaten only on holidays; the women never drank wine, the men seldom. The dress consisted of a tunic, over which (when it was cold a woolen cloak was superimposed; on holidays and solemn ceremonies the citizens wore the toga draped around the person; the footwear consisted of sandals, fastened with straps. Life was spent in work: the men cultivated the fields; the women spun wool, wove clothes, ground the grain. The only distraction, perhaps, that those primitive people had was going to the market every nine days, and taking part in the festivals in honor of the gods. The term mos maiorum or mores maiorum, i.e. the customs of the ancestors, which permeated the entire glorious Roman tradition. « The costume is the custom of the fathers, that is the memory of the ancients relating above all to the rites and ceremonies of antiquity. » So the mores were the beliefs and ceremonies that united a people, but also the so-called Roman values, pertaining above all to the royal period. According to Gaius and Sextus Pomponius the mores were the uses and customs of the tribes that united and formed Rome, in short, the models of behavior pertinent to the familiae and subsequently, from the middle of the eighth century. B.C. to the gentes, always respecting the decisions of the priests. These mores were collected by the priests themselves, handing them down orally or through secret archives. Dionysius of Halicarnassus writes that the first written laws were the work of Romulus, because until then it was the priests or tribal leaders who enforced the oral tradition. Sextus Pomponius wrote that with the first kings, however, the written rules began, giving rise to the first laws, promulgated, as Plutarch and Cicero also report, by the kings, or by the Pontiff or by both jointly. That kings wanted to guarantee the people with written laws was a great step towards civilization, in a world where kings, tribal chiefs and fathers of families were the absolute dictators of their sphere. According to some, the first book of norms was the "Liber Numae" by Numa Pompilius, which has not survived, and the "Libris Pontificalis", it is not known whether they were a separate work or a section of the Liber, but it is known that they collected the norms of Romulus and those of Numa Pompilius as well as the priestly rites derived from the mores. Then there was the "Commentarius" by Servius Tullius and later the "Libris Sibyllinis", above all based on rituals, which Tarquinius Superbus received from the Sibyl, all of which however disappeared due to the fire of Rome in 90 BC. by the Gauls of Brenno. However, both traditional practices and archaic rituals went back to collective customs. While the mores identify customs and usages, they simultaneously become tools that carry values, assuming a characteristic of ideology, especially in the imperial age, representing not individual customs to follow but an example of virtue that must be had to do good to the Roman community. In this regard, the foundation of the mores maiorum was based on five fundamental virtues: fides, pietas, majestas, vistus and gravitas.

Gonna leave you a good and bad comment. In that order. Good: Thanks for referring to those dates as BC, not BCE. There's not such a thing as a common era. I'm not religious, but trying to hide that the western calendar is based on the estimated year of the birth of Christ is stupid and pretending there's a "common", which we are imposing on people who have their own calendars, is culturally insulting. So huge kudos to you for sticking to Before Christ. Bad: Latin's G is always a strong G (as in GET). Latin C is always a strong C, as in "CAT". Lucius is pronounced "LUKIUS".
