24. Retribution of Rome

Julius Caesar recruits additional legions without permission from the Senate. With his new army he races to confront the Helvetii as they rampage through the territory of tribes allied with Rome. Caesar catches up with them at an opportune moment, and, never being one to miss an opportunity, he seizes it. We gain our first glimpse of Caesar’s ruthlessness in Gaul.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com   ----more----   The Show The March of History is a biographical history podcast on the life of Julius Caesar and the fall of the Roman Republic.

23. Knock Knock, It’s the Helvetii

A massive migration of "barbarians" is headed directly for one of Julius Caesar’s provinces. This is Caesar’s first test as Proconsul. The tribes say they want to pass through Transalpine Gaul but promise not to misbehave. Caesar is having none of it. What’s more, he has spotted an opportunity for glory.    Note: Further Gaul and Transalpine Gaul are two names for the same province. In this episode I use the terms interchangeably.   Correction: I discuss the practice of forcing your enemies to “pass under the yoke” in this episode. I stated the yoke would be a triangle made of spears that defeated soldiers would be forced to march under. This was a mistake as the yoke would really be two spears stuck into the ground with a third spear running perpendicular and connecting them at the top. This would form a rectangle for the soldiers to walk under, not a triangle.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com   ----more----   The Show The March of History is a biographical history podcast on the life of Julius Caesar and the fall of the Roman Republic.

22. Clodius Really Unhinged

Julius Caesar sits silently outside of Rome pulling the strings of politics like a spider perched on a web. Clodius wins the Tribuneship and immediately goes after his enemies, namely Cicero. In the ever escalating feud between these two senators, the norms of the Republic are being eroded at an alarming pace. Violence and brute force now rule the day.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com   ----more----   The Show The March of History is a biographical history podcast on the life of Julius Caesar and the fall of the Roman Republic.

20. The Consulship of Julius and Caesar (Part III)

Julius Caesar continues his blitzkrieg of legislation as Consul. His enemies can barely keep pace. The Triumvirate reigns supreme… or so it seems. The ground they stand on is not so sure as they think. In the background, the Optimates are priming a clever trap for Caesar.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com   ----more----   The Show The March of History is a biographical history podcast on the life of Julius Caesar and the fall of the Roman Republic.

19. The Consulship of Julius and Caesar (Part II)

Julius Caesar refuses to allow an obstructive Senate led by Cato to stonewall his legislation. Ignoring the Senate altogether, Caesar takes his bills directly to the people. At the first and most important of these votes, chaos breaks out in the Forum and fists (and much smellier substances) start to fly.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com   ----more----   The Show The March of History is a biographical history podcast on the life of Julius Caesar and the fall of the Roman Republic.

18. The Consulship of Julius and Caesar (Part I)

Julius Caesar wins the Consulship in a landslide. Despite this, he is put in a political corner by Cato and the Optimates’ maneuverings ahead of his year in office. Caesar will need to use all of his charm, charisma and political acumen to find a creative solution around that immovable object that is Cato. Necessity is the mother of invention and soon one of history’s most famous alliances is born. Caesar then starts off his consulship with a bang, unleashing a flurry of major legislation to the Optimates' displeasure.   Venmo If you enjoyed the episode and want to leave a tip, click the link below! https://venmo.com/code?user_id=3764325529420842984&created=1680471101.0362968&printed=1    Patreon If you want to contribute to The March of History with a monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.patreon.com/themarchofhistory    PayPal If you want to contribute to The March of History with a one time or monthly donation, click the link below! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=QZREW4PVL2M3A    Youtube - Trevor Travels https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-kjCywT0iuq1XgVY_u88gg   Social Medias (All can be found at the following link): linktr.ee/themarchofhistory  Instagram - @themarchofhistory Twitter - @march_history Facebook - Search "The March of History"   Music: LucasNapoleone/Shutterstock.com   ----more----   The Show The March of History is a biographical history podcast on the life of Julius Caesar and the fall of the Roman Republic.

Pompey Magnus has been away from Rome for 5 years waging war and reorganizing the Eastern half of the Roman empire. He returns to Rome as perhaps the richest and most accomplished Roman General of all time up to that point in history.
