The city itself yes but everywhere else (which barely get attention) became way more interesting bc half the empire was basically self sufficient. It didnt matter who was in charge by the 3rd cenrury. Under some emperors these regional leaders had more power and flex than ever. A lot of interesting historians and traders thrived outside and inside Rome alike. I think you're just focused on propoganda.

Agreed

I dont think it counts as the same office when its in another religion.

Etropalker Yes I know but it's still a good story to tell that really gives the history meaning today, especially for people who don't like history.

Angus Rhodes why would someone not interested in history be watching this?

If I were a Flamen, I'd just walk around with a single apple in my pocket and place it in whatever table I saw

@@vulpes7079 that is really smart. I like to imagine that's how it was :)

@@vulpes7079 but if the table was empty before you but the apple down you would still see a empty table

@@ethanthegamelion4233 they couldn't have enforced it so strictly, accidental table-seeing probably happened a lot back then

Yep

no, in essence, the pope is the pontifex maximus. its different i promise.

the pope retains the title pontifex maximus to this day

Andrew Fisher yep, that’s correct, I’m not getting ideas I swear

Wait, if Pope is Pontifex Maximus and Ceasar was Pontifex Maximus and it was basically a religious continuation of roman kings, then Pope actually had a power to apoint a Ceasar and HRE isn't bullshit in the end? I think I went too far.

A philosopher, one of the good ones.

I want this too. There are no quality videos about his life.

And Regina is latin for queen

That is actually latin I can understand without latin education, Rex/Regina and sanctorum are used pretty often.

More like "King of the Holies" Sacrorum is genetive plural.

it took you 6 years to learn a language?

holy king would be, "rex sacrum" epic fail

Ye but they are fucking shit compared to Historia, mate.

Emnel wouldn’t odium translate as hatred?

@@bigboizism yeah odium is like the spanish word for hatred

Odium is hatred, not fear. The ablative form is odio, which became the portuguese, italian and the spanish word for hatred.

Look up Sulla. Mass murder of political rivals, corruption and the movement of troops into the city of Rome against all tabboos. Also torture at the Tarpeian rock to name a few.

TheHiyy Yes but the Roman Military really grew.

do you consider augustus an emperor?

Gentel Noober Sort of

+Leron Benari _When the war against Marcus Antonius and Ptolemaic queen Cleopatra VII Philopator ended with his victory at the Battle of Actium (2 September 31 BCE), Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus found himself in command of some 60 to 70 legio and 900 warships. Seeing as the Roman state could not support such a large military establishment, Octavianus therefore discharged a significant number of legio, reducing the number to 26. (When Galatia was annexed as a provincia in 25 BC, two new legio were added). The loss of three legio under the command of Publius Quinctilius Varus in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest (September 9 CE) left only 25._ _There were thus about 150,000 legionaries, with an equivalent number of auxiliaries. The Imperial Roman Navy had two main bases; Misenum on the Bay of Naples and Ravenna along the Adriatic coast, with smaller flotillas elsewhere, such as the Forum Julii - Gaius Julius Caesar's personal market - located in southern Gaul (modern day France). By the end of Augustus' reign, the Imperial Roman Army numbered some 250,000 men, equally split between 25 legions and 250 units of auxiliaries._

Marius vs the Germans would be even better!

Marius vs Sulla woud be even better

There would be material for several videos really.

Marius vs Javert ?

One of the greatest bits about Sulla is that he did a similar move to what Caesar did with becoming PM. He won a grass crown early in his career that gave him an automatic seat in the senate for life. And whenever he entered the senate all the much older, richer senators had to rise and applaud him until he sat down. Like Caesar this earned him renown, but also enmity of the old guard.

i declare this a holiday!!!

General noob Oh my dear Roman, every day that is blessed with a Historia Civilis video shall be a holiday for every Roman to celebrate!

+TheFrosty we shall drink till Antony falls to the ground and further

But.. I'm a member of a Germanic tribe. Can I still celebrate?

+Connor Foley NO NOT AFTER TATTLEBURG

Didn't it depend on mainly the Emperors wishes what he wished to do so it would wary wildly on the person?

Bribing the Praetorian Guard. Video over.

A lot of people sees Caesar as a good guy. He was not, he was ambitious and talented, but he was a dictator who only wanted to seize the power. So, it was a good thing that he was killed at the moment at least. We wouldn't cry for him today if that happened.

Evil Guy I can be your Highest Elected Religious Official, baby. I can kiss away the pain.

The world could always use more Highest Elected Religious Officials.

I need a Highest Elected Religious Official to save me now.

You live long enough to be Caesar?

Highest Elected Religious Officials never die

He still has that title

The position transitioned to the Pope when Rome became Christianized

It comes from a joke and play on this very position

Yeah the pope still has that title

Centum milia! Macte hac gloria!

Much of Augustus' legitimacy came from the godlike status of Caesar. He even proclaimed himself Divi filius - son of a god.
