Kings and Generals' historical animated documentary series on the history of Rome continues with an episode of the post-Caesar Civil Wars, as we look at what happened after the initial shock of Caesar's assassination. Previously we talked about the battle of Mutina and its aftermath ( • Post-Caesar Civil Wars... ) as Octavian, Antony, and Lepidus created a triumvirate, taking over Rome, which signaled to Brutus and Cassius, that there will be another civil war ( • Octavian and Antony: t... ). The latter collected their legions and started building their base of operations, leading to the battles of Xanthos and Rhodes ( • Battles of Xanthos and... ), and that, in turn lead to the battle of Philippi that would decide the fate of the war between the Caesareans and Pompeians ( • Battle of Philippi - P... ). After Philippi, Octavian and Antony basically divided Rome between them. In this episode we will see what was happening in the western part in 41-40 BC as Octavian had to deal with a number of enemies and crises, which culminated at the Perusian War where Caesar's heir was forced to fight Antony's wife Fulvia and his brother Lucius.

Leaving aside the cruelty that Octavian may have shown in battle, it is impossible to not admire the fact that, even during his reign as Augustus, he never lost his respect for his old enemy Mark Antony.

@@ElBandito Whilst Anthony and Octavian campaigned in Greece, Lepidus remained on the home front and ensured the Rome did not dissintegrate into anarchy. Sometimes that works. Just look at Lenin and Trotsky: Lenin was way more popular for staying at home than Trotsky for beating all the White armies. Unfrotunately, this didn't work for Lepidus. Which is a shame, truly. He was seemingly competent, not power or blood thirsty, and a great administrator (as seen to when Caesar appointed him to run Rome after Anthony's screw ups). He was a tragic historical figure by all accounts. Too many ambitioius opportunists infested the Roman state at the time. The Roman Republic no longer was the noble one that drove the Kings in the 6th century BC. As sad as it sounds, Rome no longer wanted men like Lepidus to lead it.

Fun fact. Tiberius Claudius Nero, Livia's first husband before she married Octavia and Emperor Tiberius's father fought for Lucius at Perusia. After Lucius surrendered at Perusia, Nero fled first to Naples and then to Sicily where he was welcomed by Sextus. He would eventually make his way back to Rome with his wife and son in tow, getting pardoned after three years on the run, which became a big turning point in his life and that of his children. It was back in Rome when Nero and his family tried getting their old life back together that one day Octavia fell in love with Livia after catching sight of her. So madly was he bewitched by the then pregnant Livia that he divorced his wife Julia and got Livia to divorce Nero so that the two of them could wed each other. Nero at least was a good sport about the whole affair as he not only attended the wedding of his ex wife, but he also stood in for Livia's deceased father and gave her away during the ceremony.

Speaking of Fulvia, something very remarkable about her was her enormous hatred towards Cicero. In fact, Fulvia ordered the famous orator's head to be brought to her when he was executed. The joy that she experienced when seeing his head was so great that it made her go crazy (as many paintings would represent centuries later). How fortunate Antony was when she died and the beautiful Octavia and Cleopatra took her place as his wife

@livecarsonreaction Жыл бұрын

Also bears remembering that before Antony, Fulvia was married to Clodius Pulcher, a violent agitator who also hated Cicero (and had a reputation for sleeping with his sister). When Cicero defended Caelius Rufus against charges laid by Clodius and Clodia, he pretended to mistake Clodius as her “husband” instead of her brother.

@omarbradley6807 Жыл бұрын

Well, Fulvia was right, remember who Cicero was an Optimate, Caesar was a Popular, so the diference was a very important one, if she was loyal to the Popular cause, amidst an assasination like that of Caesar, that was a good maner to do it, her husband instead only throw Lepidus under the bus in order to become a kind of "new Pharaoh", and lost contact with the reality, who was Why to fight the war in the first place?

"I would rather betray the world, than let the world betray me" - Octavian Edit: i know it was Cao Cao who said that in the romance but, i am just fascinated of how those two are similar. I am sure Cao Cao would have liked to meet Augustus. Cao Cao probably would think that Caesar was naive to think popular support alone would be enough to keep him safe from his enemies.

I actually think Caesars political strategy worked very well. His only mistake was to pardon even the enemies who already took arms against him. But remaining popular with the common people and veterans alike was true genius of Caesar.

Don't believe the narrative of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The actual Records of the Three Kingdoms is far more neutral about Cao Cao (including that he was likely the best candidate to reunite China) and presents far more perspectives about every leader. Cao Cao cared about the common farmer as much as Caesar did.

@lordshang8838 Жыл бұрын

That saying does not fit Octavian, the circumstances and cultural background in which Cao cao said that if he actually did say it are entirely different from what Octavian was in. That someone would do anything to gain power by that time in the Roman world went without saying. It was not the taboo that it was in late Han China.

If Caesar was a bit cautious or maybe just even luckier, he would get away with the assassination and purge the conspirators, making his grip on power even stronger.

This is my favourite part of roman history. I was heavily influenced by iclaudius and its sequel so I view the caesareans through rose tinted glasses.

Veteran: "Hey Octavian." Octavian: "Yea?" Veteran: "You know that fortified city you're planning on besieging." Octavian: "Yes. I'm afraid we'll have to storm it." Veteran: "..." Octavian: "..." Veteran: "My lord, let me tell you a story from my time under Caesar. A story about a little town called Alesia..."
