I think that Caesar was genuinely saddened by Pompeys death.

And despite my anger at what happened I was still really saddened by it because I’d lost a friend. I think that in that moment (if Caesar really did weep) he didn’t see the severed head of his enemy but the desecrated corpse of an old friend. If Caesar really didn’t know anything about his death then I doubt he would’ve been ready to shed crocodile tears on a moments notice and that those tears were genuine.

Caesar was pissed off with Ptolemy XIII having Pompey beheaded for a couple other reasons: 1, The punishment for a former consul being an enemy was usually exile 2, Ptolemy owed Pompey Magnus a huge favor and he repaid him with betrayal and beheading him? Bad move. 3, A kingdom that was indebted to Rome had to respect Roman law and one of those laws was not to harm a Roman citizen of any class without Rome passing the sentence--in short, only Romans had the right to kill Romans, and even then, there had to be good reason. 4, Despite being enemies, they were still old friends and former in-laws. 5. Ptolemy violated a basic ancient law of hospitality.

NimbleDick Crabb // I never said that, although Historia Civilis pointed out in the video covering Caesar's term as Consul in 59 BC, Ptolemy XI had no legitimate heirs and in his will left Egypt to Rome, but Caesar did not press that claim and Ptolemy XII did a lot have Rome essentially legitimize his claim to the throne despite being a bastard and maintain his kingdom's independence so to speak. Ptolemy XIII did not plan to have Caesar and Pompey killed together. He had Pompey killed on arrival in the hopes of currying Caesar's favor since he won the civil war*, but he learned the hard way that that was a bad move and would later live to regret that decision. But when Caesar occupied his palace and then later supported Cleopatra, then he sought to try and kill Caesar. To put it simply in a comedic fashion, that Boy-King dicked with the wrong Dictator.

The events leading up and during the siege of the Ptolemaic royal palace of Alexandria, with Caesar and his budding new love interest Cleopatra VII trapped together inside of it for months before the Roman relief force arrives, honestly reads like something out of an adventure novel. It's just so damn epic. That's especially the case with the whole burning of the ships in the harbor that spread fire to the famous Library of Alexandria, burning part of it down.

Love your videos! I do have one tiny correction though: Mithridates of Perganom was not King. He was simply a powerful noble and general, being the son of the famous Mithridates, King of Pontus. The Romans had annexed Pontus and the surrounding territory after victory in the Third Mithridatic War in 63 BC. However, Caesar would make Mithridates King of the Bosporus for helping him out of this sticky situation.

But that his plan to parade his adversary in chains in Rome And be seen as the savior of the republic was dashed by the Egyptians, Seems too plausible for a general and strategist of Caesars’ level not to attempt.

There is a large number of scholars that are of the opinion that Caesar knew about the assassination plot. He was very clever so one wonders why he ignored all the evidence both human and divine. Well, 1) his epileptic fits were becoming more frequent and it was taking him longer to recover; 2) the political situation in Rome was becoming too much to handle; thus he planned to go on campaign to get out of the kitchen so to speak. When the plot came along he had a chance to go out at the peak of his career and maintain his auctoritas. He had the examples of Pompey, Cato, and others pointing to the road he did NOT want to take.
