Caesar actually spoke the words "The die is cast." in Greek. It was in reference to a Greek tragic play now lost to us.

@TheZombifiedGuy

3 жыл бұрын

Also, the tone of the phrase is usually misunderstood. It was much closer to "well, here goes nothing" (a die being cast is generally associated with gambling, not so much with an ominous point of no return). It's only in retrospect that it seems like he was making this big, certain statement about the start of a major conflict, because that's what happened afterwards. But nobody at the time knew for sure what would happen. That's what Caesar was getting at: that the whole thing was a gamble and he was taking a huge risk.

It was the roman version of "Those who make peaceful revolutions impossible make violent revolutions inevitable." In a way. The Grachi brothers land reforms and fighting for the people trough peaceful means had been crushed and many flocked to Caesar (and Catiline before him) for the promise of land and bread, and fighting against the Oligarchy. Caesar saw the opportunity in this and acted. If he truly was a populist at heart is another matter.

It may be a stream but to Roman tradition, it really was a "no going back" point. It was a tradition arguably as old Rome itself that a Roman army was forbidden from marching into the city unless it was in a Triumph. It's actually the reason why originally when the Republic didn't have a standing army that the people, when called for military service, would actually gather under arms outside the city limits on the Campus Martius. Hence why the Civil Wars of the 2nd and 1st Centuries were so formative, the traditions of old were being thoroughly abused and stamped on.

In my opinion I think Caesar truly was a populist caring for the people at least in some manners, as much as one can expect from that time period. Even after clearly being the Master of Rome he didn't stop with projects helping the plebs, often at the cost of the wealthy. He did it even when he had all the power and could have done anything he want (so to speak, of course there were limits.). Now of course Caesar was very vain and prideful, and simply wanting the affection of the people for his own vanity was certainly a reason, but I do think in some parts he did truly want to reform Rome.

You shouldnt take these political sides as some fixed ideological groups.

So i highly doubt anyone from that senate thought that way.

@@blackflagsnroses6013 He is actually completely correct. Optimates and Populares weren't analogous to Plebs and Patricians. That's the Struggle of the Orders from the 5th Century B.C., the Plebs agitated for places in the government, the right to vote and land reforms. Quite literally the formation of the Republic as it would stand till the mid 2nd Century. Tradition in Roman politics had become firmly established and very seldom did senators deviate from the established Mos Maiorum until the Gracchi, there was nothing to be gained from bringing the train to a halt. Optimates and Populares were types of senators that formed factions that served the needs of the individuals within those factions (The First Triumvirate for example). Men like the Gracchi Brothers and Marius who used tactics like gang violence, and abusing the popular assemblies by manipulating the Tribunate in order to pass their laws were considered Populares, "Men of the People." though over the course of the Roman Revolution for the reasons stated above, this became quite a negative term. Optimates ("The Optimals") were considered ideal senators who toed the line and respected the Mos Maiorum (Way of the Ancestors). These were men like Sulla and Cicero who tried to preserve the Republic. They weren't singular entities, or political parties, they were fluid factions that served the needs of the individuals and their supporters based on their values, what methods they were prepared to use and what they needed to accomplish.

While I know all of this from word for word the presentation is what keeps me coming back to Roman history

Very accurate and rightly synthetic! Bravo! These are such complex times! Just a reminder : you place Cicero within the oldest families, the nobles. Cicero was a "Homo Nuevus", a recently made aristocrat without a long family line. And he was not a real Optimates, but someone in between : we would say a moderate nowadays. He hesitated a lot before joining Pompey's camp and even when he did, he did it reluctantly. He was also a friend of Caesar, not really politically : but they were from the same generation and shared the same taste for literature. They knew each other well before those events. He became a firm opponent of Caesar very late : just before his assassination. He played a role and was for it, but his plans (actually the assassin's plan) for after this assassination came to no fruition.

Thanks Kings and General for the Roman civil war. Was eagerly waiting for it since the Gallic conquest.

Perfect Brief and profound story. Caesar was a true loving leader and practical military commander. Envy is all how it started, since the beginning of human kind and till this day. We need another Caesar these days a man who stands with all people. Poor and rich, white and black.

Voices in the senate speaking latin gave me the chills. Great job!

17:50 You misplaced the Rubicon and the city of Parma. The river you named Rubicon is in fact the Reno river, while the real Rubicon is further south. The city of Parma is further west, by no means near to the Panaro river.

"ANTONY!!!!!!, VETO THE MOTION, VETO THE MOTION!!!!!"

I have been waiting for this video for a long time, I’m so excited

Love this channel...it make me fall in love with history.

Senate: The senate will decide your fate Caesar: I am The Senate

Damo2690 he had many of these before the Gallic conquest. He was in debt and young most of his life. He was only old and rich after his success in Gaul

Sad, sad. We always asume famous and great men to look good and be good and for the lower to look bad. What is this insight?

I feel the present generation can never match the glories of Great men from the past. No wonder today's men are so depressed.

Interestingly, the revolutionaries who founded the US felt the same way about themselves.

Even Caesar felt this way. There is a story where Caesar looked at a statue of Alexander the Great when he was quaestor in Hispania already in his 30s and lamented that at his age Alexander had already conquered most of the known world. And Alexander looked back to Achilles and the mythical Greek Heroes and thought he could never match their greatness. There is no "greater" generation. Every generation looks to the accomplishments of previous generations with the benefit of hindsight without realising what their generation is achieving.

@Klaidi Rubiku the story was reported by both Plutarch and Suetonius who both wrote biographies of Caesar and are considered important primary sources, make of that what you want. Also I didn't reply to OP's comment on depression but his comment on the fact that this generation is not as great as the previous ones. Pretty much every generation thinks that, which is why I used this example.

Always look forward to your videos...thank you.

Amazing video as usual.

Cicero was a "new man", meaning that he was the first-ever of his family to become a consul. He was not a well-established aristocrat but a man who worked his way up the curses honorum with pure skills. He supported the Pompeians solely because he believed that they would be more merciful and lenient to the Republican system than the Caesareans.

13:41 It was the Caesarians who made this demand to Pompeii first. It was Caesar's plan to drive a wedge between Pompeii and the hardliner optimates who would agree to such a compromise as it made legal sense. This caused a lot of demands to go back and forth, giving Caesar enough time while the senate was bogged down It makes no sense for Pompei to have needlessly put his career and political clout on the line by making such an offer himself

Great graphics! great subject! Keep up the good work!

So so interesting, great video!

Hail Caesar!

3:38 is exactly what's happening in the USA, and the end of that Republic is on the horizon as a result

Ahhh Just what I needed , now I can watch “ceasar in Gaul “ then this video and then history marche video’s on ceasar’s civil war ☺️🔥 but still looking forward for this channel to bring out it’s videos on the civil war . this inside was welcoming and very entertaining to watch🔥

Very nice video! I hope you can do another on the roman economy in the future

2 political parties blocking each others ideas causing mass polarization? Where have I seen that before

I don't know who does the artwork for your videos but you better hold on to that person.
