MagellanTV - https://www.magellantv.com/invicta History playlist - https://www.magellantv.com/explore/history In this Epic Moments of Roman History Documentary we examine the amazing life of Julius Caesar. We begin with his upbringing during the end of the Roman Republic and the dictator Sulla who forced young Julius Caesar to flee for his life from the proscriptions. Caesar then joins the Roman army to fight in the Mithridatic Wars before returning to Rome to take up his political career. During this time he travels to asia for studies but is intercepted by pirates. Julius Caesar then survives several weeks of captivity, returning to crucify his captors as he had promised. After this harrowing event, Julius Caesar begins his advance up the cursus honorum. Eventually he enters into an alliance with Pompey and Crassus to form the First Triumvirate. Caesar then becomes Consul in 59 BC and heads off to Gaul the following year. Julius Caesar now begins one of the most famous chapters of Ancient History by leading the Roman Army in the Gallic Wars. Culminating in the siege of Alesia, the roman general returns home a victor. However much of the senate is opposed to his return which leads to Caesar crossing the Rubicon under arms and starting the Roman civil war. The rest of our documentary on Julius Caesar then follows the major events of this conflict including the battle of Dyrrhachium, the battle of Pharsalus, the battle of Alexandria, the Battle of Thapsus, and the Battle of Munda among many others. Finally, we conclude the 9 lives of Julius Caesar with his death on the ides of march before the senate. We hope you enjoyed this educational history documentary on Julius Caesar and the Epic Moments in History.
