    Here's episode one! The first episode in Ten Minute English and British History, a 42-part series which covers all of English and British history from 55BC to 2010.
    This episode covers the Roman Republic's early contact with and later imperial conquest of Britannia. It covers why using the word 'Celt' is problematic, what the Roman conquest looked like, just how 'Roman' Britannia became and what Britannia's role in Roman politics became.
    Ten Minute English and British History is a series of short, ten minute animated narrative documentaries that are designed as revision refreshers or simple introductions to a topic. Please note that these are not meant to be comprehensive and there's a lot of stuff I couldn't fit into the episodes that I would have liked to. Thank you for watching, though, it's always appreciated.

    Fun Fact: Caligula is actually a nick name the crazy Emperor had, and he Effing Hated it. It means "Little Boot." He got the nick name when he was a child and he wore a military uniform when out on campaign with someone, and he wore little boots (Boots were known as Calig's, and little boots is pronounced "Caligula"), and the other soldiers picked on him for this. And since he Sucked so much, everyone wrote his Official name as Caligula after he died so that he would always be remembered by that name he hated.

      Not quite. Gaius "Caligula" was the son of a hugely popular general Germanicus. He basically grew up in military camps and his parents used to dress the toddler in a version of a military tunic, caligae and perhaps even armour and parade him around the camp. The armies adopted him as a mascot and so gave him the nickname out of a sort of sentimentality. He may well have hated it and have seen it s patronising in later life.

    You should have done an "episode zero" to explain what happened before the Romans. From when people first arrived on Britain to 55 AD. Not a great deal is known about it but I imagine there is at least 10 minutes worth of stuff that happened. Although peoples names would likely few and far between.

Something not being in line or not matching up correctly bothering you is not ocd, this is a misinterpretation that thousands of people make. It makes light of a condition which is honestly hell to live with for those who deal with it. check the link for information on what OCD actually is. Imagine having to check your front door is locked 20 times before you leave the house & feeling like if you don't you will lose someone close to you. Or having some horrific though be all your mind will show you for an hour. Its crippling.

    Well done! Although, I would disagree that Septimius Severus begins the late period. Many have suggested it was Diocletian, with his enormous reforms, brought about the late period. I've always seen the 3rd Century Crisis as a part of the early period because no major structural changes occurred.

    Why is it that everyone hesitates when they use the word Celtic in an ancient context? There is little hesitation when ancient tribes are called Germanic, and if the P and Q Celtic theory is correct then Welsh and Breton are closer to Gaulish than to Irish and Scottish (and vice versa for Celt-Iberian). Surely if we can have the modern P and Q Celtic languages under the Celtic label we can use it for ancient languages.
    To be fair modern Celtic languages may belong to a separate insular group, but like mentioned above we still call a great variety of languages Germanic, ancient or modern.
    Great Video btw :).

    It's funny how Britannia was once a colony of a vast empire in the beginning and ended up becoming a colonial empire centuries later.
    Moreover, the way Romans suppress the Celtic tribes is very similar to how Great Britain suppress its colony as if the Roman was their tutor of becoming a colonial empire.

      You have tot remember that the Celtic rule over Great Britain pretty much ceased after 1066, when the "French" conquered it. So there is no direct line to the Romans.
