Well the roman empire did make some stupid mistakes from time to time, the battle of Cannae and Crassus disastrous march into Parthia for instance. The legionnares were however quite adept when it came to conquest and holding teritorry over extended periods of time.

"wE're fRieNds oF rOmE". Yeah, right. Shooting an arrow trying to assassinate the governor, killing the aquilifier and nearly causing the eagle standard to fall to the ground, shutting their door, then hiding the assassin. Very friendly indeed.

@@dillonhonore3579 An Aquilifer was a special type of signifer (standard bearer). Normal Signifers carried the eagle of their cohort/century, and this was already a special role/designation. The standards would have cohort/century awards and recognitions. An Aquilifer was the sole signifer in a Roman Legion to carry the Eagle of the Legion (standard for entire legion). Losing the eagle was considered a grave dishonor to everyone (Rome, the Legion itself, legionaries, and the commanders), and Aquilifers were often accompanied by veteran Legionary bodyguards.
@@dillonhonore3579 Samuel explained it nicely just to ad that the Aquila itself (Eagle) was a sacred symbol associated with Zeus and revered not only by the Legions but from all echelons of Roman society. Originally, in the Republican Era, it was just one amongst many military symbols (signa militaria) but after the Marian reforms it gained precedence. During the late Republic and the subsequent Imperial Age, the Aquila represented the power&glory of Rome projected wherever the Legions marched and loss of even a single standard in battle incurred great shame/lamentation but also extreme forms of retribution (example: the loss of three Eagles in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest and the campaign of revenge that led to two of the Eagles been regained leading to the Battle of Idistaviso)
That's not exactly how the Roman punishment system worked, if you say, attempted to assassinate a high ranking Roman official, let's say a general, diplomat, or, god help you, Both.

you may want to brush up on your roman army count, nephew. a century aint taking a city and a cohort sure aint taking a country. Julius Caesar's famous siege of the city of Alesia involved 10 legions...10.
I love how the legionnaires' helmets are covered in dust and they are singing cadence. The rhythm is very similar to a cadence I sang with soldiers when I was in the Army. Its probably the same one but adapted for the movie. Apparently people don't know if the Roman Legions sang cadence or not. And sadly, a Roman Eagle standard is not known to have survived.

A thing the movie gets wrong is the dust, romans kept their gear in incredibly pristine conditioned even on the march under pain of that one stick the centurion has. It's even said to have given away an ambush before because their shields and armour had shiny metal on them. they're too tarnished just for a desert march here, some dust would be great but not the level of caked on it is.
@@itshunni8346 I agree..A legionnaire would have been inspected by his centurion. There are documents of soldiers being whipped for having rust on their armor.
Colleen McCoullouch writes about the marching songs in her Masters of Rome series. A lot of them were bawdy songs about their generals. Fun series if you like to read. HBO's "Rome" echoed a lot of her vision combined with Roman historians as advisors.
Killing an Auxilary? That's a strangling killing a legionary? That's a butchering. Killing and auquilifer and almost causing the eagle standard to hit the ground: That is a crucifixion.
I am from central Italy, my family too. I remember going toRome almost every weekend with my parents when I was a child, and I remember my father telling me about ancient Rome. He was so passionate about it. He clearly felt a deep connection with our ancestors. Now I am 24, I don't want to sound exaggerated, but I get emotional everytime I see something about ancient Rome. I feel a deep connection with my cultural ancestors too. I love studying and learning about them. And I feel really proud. So that's gold for me, so thank you. Saluti from Italy, the birthplace of the Empire.❤️🇮🇹

Bulgarian's aren't Romans. The Romanians are the descendants of the Balkan Romans, and you took those land's. At least the Timok-Romanians still live in the region where Galerius, Licinius and Maximinus Daia were born
@@InAeternumRomaMaterthe Bulgarians are Bulgarians and they were highly romanised due to both cultural assimilation due to them settling in Roman lands inside Danube and due to their prolonged contact and influence of Eastern Rome.
@@zippyparakeet1074 How were Bulgarians "romanized"? Do you even know what that is? If they were, 1. They would have been part of the Roman Empire (which yeah, it happened during Basil the Bulgarslayer)✅️, 2. They would still follow the Roman law🚫 and 3. They would identify by the Roman ethnonym🚫.
@@InAeternumRomaMater 1. There were not just part of the Empire during Basil's reign, they remained within the Empire for roughly 150 years after Basil's death. Moreover, the lands they settled were Roman lands populated by Romans and so a lot of cultural assimilation took place since the natives outnumbered the migrants/invaders. They also were Christianised by the Eastern Romans and were Orthodox Christians, even the written slavic aka Cyrillic was given to them by the Romans (Saints Methodius and Cyril) 2. The Bulgarian law code (aka "Court Law for the People" aka zakon sudnyi ijud'm) was based heavily on the Byzantine aka Roman Law (Code of Justinian) 3. That's just not true at all. You can be Romanised but still identify with your local identities just like how the Germanic tribes such as the Franks, Visigoths and Ostrogoths were highly Romanised.

Lol what? The army is literally marching through the conquered city and the idiot decides to try and assassinate the leader of said army who is then protected by the family and the Romans are supposed to not take them into custody and issue judgement for hiding an assassin? It was absolutely justified. Would have been more morally grey if they gave up the amateur assassin and still were imprisoned/enslaved.

The Romans initially wanted to subjugated the villages and slaving them at worse (during this time, The roman Empire is giving free citizenship left and right). But since the Aquilifer (person who carry the banner) is dead and the banner fall to the ground. They literally slaughtered the entire village in revenge.

The fall of Rome is the saddest point of human history. A civilization centuries ahead of its neighbors, evolved in arts, literature, infrastructure, architecture, government, warfare, and just about everything else. Just think about how much further along we'd be if they hadn't collapsed, it took us more than half a millennia just to get on the tech level they had before they fell.
Right. In Britain, the tech-level after the fall of Rome sank under those of the celts. Londinium had about 500 citizens left, Rome ifself ca. 30.000 in the sixth century (from over a million!). it was not early medieval times, it was a Dark Age for sure.
Amen. Not on did civilization regress in the west (the Eastern Empire was doing just fine, still basking in the light of Rome) but it forever split Europe up into petty realms who wasted centuries squabbling over petty disputes. Once you could walk from the coast of northern Gaul to Egypt (minus a little trip across the Hellespont) and be in the same nation. All the while needing only 2 languages to be able to do so.
Not entirely true. Though civilisations did decrease at first on a technological scale, they did improve themselves over time. The Romans did actually quite little on improvements themselves, mostly because they did not have any opposition of a similiar caliber. Medieval countries actually had to improve all the time, otherwise they risked lagging behind.
The eternal legion, ever victorious. Of the people and senate of Rome. The roman aedifix, harbinger of civilization, never touching the ground, shining wherever the triumvate wishes.
if Hadrian is involved ? Simon Bar-Kochba happened, another silly rebellion. Hadrian put the foot down this time and erased Judaia and renamed it Syria Palaestina. jews were forbidden to enter Jerusalem, which was also renamed
You know shit's getting real when every roman legionary is wearing a segmentata. Though being serious, there were a few guys, especially the archers, wearing Lorica Hamata. Which makes this scene more historically accurate to the roman legions.
@@Hammadz-li Actually the lorica segmentata was largely developed after the disaster in the Teutoberg Forest in 9 AD. At that time Roman legionaries were equipped with Lorica Hamata, which was very expensive and time-consuming to produce. The loss of so much valuable equipment so quickly meant that Rome had to find a cheaper and easier alternative for the army. True, some soldiers had segmentata in that battle, but the vast majority wore mail.
MONUMENTAL ROME, all other empires can just kneel to you and your shocking beauty, might and elegance., city and empire that surpasses everything. No surprise that when Rome collapsed, World immediatelly entered PERIOD OF DARK AGES, we can see here why, it was greatest empire that ever existed
The Romans legionaries actually showed professional discipline by waiting for their commander's order and going into testudo formation (for protection from arrow fire), instead of just acting on their own and charging the building.

Noticed how the man that saves the guvernor waits until the arrow is released for him to know wich way he should pull the guvernor to save him. The amounts of balls on that man
Tonight on Empire Monthly, the Brave legions in Jerusalem were ambushed in a cowardly attack. It is suspected that the attempted assassination was the responsibility of the Judean People's Front...
Amazing how in literally 3 seconds from an unexpected attack there is already a shield wall of metal and dozens of arrows already flying in the assassin’s direction. This army is not to be f@cked with...
That's actually bad timing or bad directing even - just another mistake like the one where you see the army marching past houses barely reaching to their knees. The makers of this film wanted to present a spectacular chariot race, and in a way they did succeed in doing that, but there were a lot of other glitches in the movie. Just as the costuming - people at that time did not wear pants, at least not in that part of the world, and certainly women didn't. Yet there is one scene where you can see both Judah and Esther wearing pants...

So they had to lure the legions into a tight, constricted area where they could not deploy into battle formation, then use ambush and hit-and-run tactics, over the course of three days.
I would have tossed that fucking idiot over the wall ,bow and all so he dies or is crippled by the fall. The Romans could then finish himand if they then question me, I would beg for my pathetic life.

It's even said to have given away an ambush before because their shields and armour had shiny metal on them. they're too tarnished just for a desert march here, some dust would be great but not the level of caked on it is.
@@itshunni8346 I agree..A legionnaire would have been inspected by his centurion. There are documents of soldiers being whipped for having rust on their armor.

Bulgarian's aren't Romans. The Romanians are the descendants of the Balkan Romans, and you took those land's. At least the Timok-Romanians still live in the region where Galerius, Licinius and Maximinus Daia were born
@@InAeternumRomaMaterthe Bulgarians are Bulgarians and they were highly romanised due to both cultural assimilation due to them settling in Roman lands inside Danube and due to their prolonged contact and influence of Eastern Rome.
@@zippyparakeet1074 How were Bulgarians "romanized"? Do you even know what that is? If they were, 1. They would have been part of the Roman Empire (which yeah, it happened during Basil the Bulgarslayer)✅️, 2. They would still follow the Roman law🚫 and 3. They would identify by the Roman ethnonym🚫.
@@InAeternumRomaMater
1. There were not just part of the Empire during Basil's reign, they remained within the Empire for roughly 150 years after Basil's death. Moreover, the lands they settled were Roman lands populated by Romans and so a lot of cultural assimilation took place since the natives outnumbered the migrants/invaders. They also were Christianised by the Eastern Romans and were Orthodox Christians, even the written slavic aka Cyrillic was given to them by the Romans (Saints Methodius and Cyril)
2. The Bulgarian law code (aka "Court Law for the People" aka zakon sudnyi ijud'm) was based heavily on the Byzantine aka Roman Law (Code of Justinian)
3. That's just not true at all. You can be Romanised but still identify with your local identities just like how the Germanic tribes such as the Franks, Visigoths and Ostrogoths were highly Romanised.

The fall of Rome is the saddest point of human history. A civilization centuries ahead of its neighbors, evolved in arts, literature, infrastructure, architecture, government, warfare, and just about everything else. Just think about how much further along we'd be if they hadn't collapsed, it took us more than half a millennia just to get on the tech level they had before they fell.
Right. In Britain, the tech-level after the fall of Rome sank under those of the celts. Londinium had about 500 citizens left, Rome ifself ca. 30.000 in the sixth century (from over a million!). it was not early medieval times, it was a Dark Age for sure.
Amen. Not on did civilization regress in the west (the Eastern Empire was doing just fine, still basking in the light of Rome) but it forever split Europe up into petty realms who wasted centuries squabbling over petty disputes. Once you could walk from the coast of northern Gaul to Egypt (minus a little trip across the Hellespont) and be in the same nation. All the while needing only 2 languages to be able to do so.
Khalid bin walid:ill take that as a compliment
Imagine, we can't even recover all the technology they had lol
Not entirely true. Though civilisations did decrease at first on a technological scale, they did improve themselves over time. The Romans did actually quite little on improvements themselves, mostly because they did not have any opposition of a similiar caliber. Medieval countries actually had to improve all the time, otherwise they risked lagging behind.
The eternal legion, ever victorious. Of the people and senate of Rome. The roman aedifix, harbinger of civilization, never touching the ground, shining wherever the triumvate wishes.

That legion is really well equipped every soldier wearing lorica segmentata the upkeep must be insane on that legion.
You know shit's getting real when every roman legionary is wearing a segmentata.
Though being serious, there were a few guys, especially the archers, wearing Lorica Hamata. Which makes this scene more historically accurate to the roman legions.
They look more like a Gaurd or elite unit
@@Hammadz-li That's what every legionary during the 1st century AD after Augustus reforms looked like
The Vexiliarii and the Auxiliary Archers where using hamatas at least
@@Hammadz-li Actually the lorica segmentata was largely developed after the disaster in the Teutoberg Forest in 9 AD. At that time Roman legionaries were equipped with Lorica Hamata, which was very expensive and time-consuming to produce. The loss of so much valuable equipment so quickly meant that Rome had to find a cheaper and easier alternative for the army. True, some soldiers had segmentata in that battle, but the vast majority wore mail.

So they had to lure the legions into a tight, constricted area where they could not deploy into battle formation, then use ambush and hit-and-run tactics, over the course of three days.

“TESTUDO!!!! TESTUDO!!!” For some odd reason, this whole scene got me fired the flip up.
same sht been happening for over 2000 years, that's not a holy land that's a cursed land
The holy land its you bru. 💪😎
VI легион Victrix, чей марш исполняют легионеры, никогда в Иудее не был. В I веке до новой эры он принимал участие в гражданской войне, потом был переброшен в Испанию, где находился свыше 100 лет. За это его стали называть "Испанским". Где-то в конце I века новой эры его передислоцировали на германскую границу. Оттуда его переместили в Британию, где он в частности участвовал в строительстве "вала Адриана". В Британии он и находился вплоть до начала V века, когда скорее всего вместе с остальными римскими контингентами был отозван в Галлию или даже Италию.
When the Emperor finds out why you've been expelled from 109 countries
Roll on the US expelling them to make it 110.
vincere hoc faciemus
Oy gevalt
Oy gevalt! These Ancient Romans are antisemitic! Somebody call the anti defamation league!
They still have their own country at that point and are going to be expelled from their own land and for the first time ever.
Lol, zero historic awareness.
When civilization came to town...
We need the Romans to bring back civilization to our modern degenerate society

So that's what Euron Greyjoy did after the Game of Thrones ended, joined the Legions and marched into Jerusalem. Well, no wonder he received an invitation from Rome, that man was badass enough to shoot down a dragon.
The centurions look so intimidating by they way the wave their head with the beats of the march at the very beginning. (the ones walking)
*2:08* I would have sold this guy out. Just be like, "This is the guy! This is the guy that shot at you! Take him! Don't imprison me!!"
Exactly... sell the guy out... you would not risk the lives of your family for a moron.
@@louisdefilippi8982 indeed
I think he was his son..
@@thisguy4345 if i was him, i'd give the son away for his idiocy
@@thisguy4345 it was not his son it was a stranger he took in. The guy who owns the home is Ben Hur and instead of telling the Romans where the boy was he told them he was the shooter. The Romans enslave him, crucified the women, and the boy got off scot free. Really stupid.
Imagine waking up seeing a legion in your town
I'd sign up for the auxiliaries immediately.
I like how after he shot the arrow everyone is like “oh god were fucked”
Because they clearly are
What I love is how there singing
"We're friends of rome!"
*slash*
After the arrow was shot, they were already dead
The Romans wasn't listening to anything at that point
@@idontlikerome2744 Rome never forgets an injury
He shot the signifier causing the standard to almost touch the ground and the entire legion being decimated
The family was already ruined the moment that boy shot the Arrow
Teacher: „we’re going to an class trip to Jerusalem!!“
Girls: „Omg, thats gonna be so boring, what even is this place?!“

ROMA AETERNA !!! GLORY TO ROMAN EMPIRE !
Romans are the worst bastards this world haver ever seen. They all have a very special place in hell.
