  • Why did Boudican revolt Fail?
    How did 1 woman humiliate the Roman Empire?
    Boudica’s first place of attack would be the stolen Trinovante land of Camulodunum. The colony was left open with no fortified city wall nor a Roman force worth any value to protect it. Nothing more than the veterans themselves and an attempted relief from one Quintus Petillius Cerialis and his Ninth Legion to stand in the way of Boudica’s wrath. And thus, on a date unbeknownst to us but ingrained forever in the minds of all who were there that day, the Iceni and their allies, rallying behind their warrior queen, turned the colony of Camulodum into first a butcher shop, and next a firey graveyard.

      Yeah was going to comment the same, the Romans just found a hill where they couldn't be flanked and beat the enemy despite being severly outnumbered and the Britons overconfident in victory set up their bagge train and families behind their army so when they routed they trampled their own kid in desperation to save themselves. It was a one sided slaughter.

    As great as Boudica is, I hate how British nationalists became obsessed with depicting her revolt as one of the most important events in the history of the entire empire, even though her greatest achievement was committing a few massacres before being beaten in combat. Queen Zenobia literally took Egypt from the romans for years, and yet she gets much less recognition than Boudica.

    • @KingGayCockroach
      @KingGayCockroach 21 час назад

      There weren’t 100,000, don’t try and act smart. Their force of warriors was likely twice maybe three times the size the romans mustered. And likely the Romans mustered more than stated; as they always understated their forces and overstated the quantity of their enemies.

    aius Suetonius Paulinus (fl. AD 40-69) was a Roman general best known as the commander who defeated Boudica and her army during the Boudican revolt.
    Additionally, Boudica was able to unite different Celtic tribes under her leadership, which was no small feat, and she is said to have shown great courage and determination in the face of overwhelming odds. These are all qualities that would be considered valuable in a leader

    @chrisharmon8858 19 часов назад

    It's Boudica time again. As most have said further down, she did not bring the empire to it's knees like so many write. BUT, in her time this was something that shook the relative peace of Rome. It probably was disturbing to Nero. It was a big deal to those living it and those that heard about it first/second hand. The civil wars of the Republic and Empire, the Punic Wars, the Serville Wars. Now those were Earth shaking. Why does Queen Zernobia not get as much recognition as Boudica? Well during her little fit of hysteria, she was still acting as a client ruler of a Roman client state. Yes she was taking other Roman client states but she was still returning money and grain to Rome. It wasn't until Aurelian had became the Roman Emporer that she declared her son emporer. Aurelian had a few other things on his mind. First he had to defeat a bunch of Germanic invaders then defeat Zernobia and then he could take out the so called Gallic Empire to restore the pre-crisis Roman Empire. Why is Boudica better known than Zernobia? Because she's from Britian. Britian conquered a large part of the world, gaining an empire Romans could only dream of. It's their world, we only live in it.

    There is no evidence that the Iceni, or any of the tribes of southern Britain were 'Celts'.
    They are just as likely to be more Germanic, like the Belgae, & Parisi, for we are told of the relationship with those people across the sea, which means the semi German Belgae of Gaul, & north of these the fully German tribes, Batavians & others. Celts belonged further west , in Cornwall, Wales etc. These were related to other Celts in Armorica & Iberia. Indeed the ONLY people the Romans called Celts were the Celtiberi, in the Iberian peninsula. It is a mere assumption, based on a mistaken orthodoxy, that claims much of Europe, & all of Britain as a monoglot widespread Celtic cultural zone. Really much of this vast region was as much, if not more, Germanic, including the 'founding' cultures of La Tene & Hallstatt. This had come overland through the main river systems, to northern Europe & eastern Britain, while the 'celts' developed from groups who had migrated along the Mediterranean to Iberia & expanded along the Atlantic coast to western Britain.
