"Groups of Catiline's supporters had been hanging around..." hehehehehehe
Snaggle Toothed boo 👎
Snaggle Toothed Props to you for knowing that the plural of hanging someone is hanged, not hung
lol
you really should make a sulla video
Yeah, every time he mentions Sulla I think about this.
i guess... he wont
he did.. on his second channel, Sam Harris
Sulla and Marius. Two guys who made Caesar possible.
@@Alpha1200 I want to see Sulla vs Marius
Zooming in on a purple square has never been so dramatic
Metellus reciting the bill from memory may be one of my favorite things ever.
It was pretty… Metell 😎
@@DeadCanuckGet out. Now.
@@DeadCanuckstole my joke!
Cato: _Pompey only marches on Rome over my dead body_
*Pompey actually seizes de facto rule of Rome for years and then is driven away to Greece*
Cato: _Guess I'll just stick with him_
Marc Nassif
Cato really wasn't happy to support Pompey. But when it came down to it, he'd rather support Pompey who is more likely to maintain the status quo, than to support Ceasar who he distrusts and has unclear goals.
@@Hrogoff Caesar's motives weren't unclear, he was a reformer and absolutely hated by the Senate who wanted the status quo. So it's no surprise Cato took the side of Pompey who was the Senate's favorite and a staunch supporter of the current rules.
Cato and Pompey never really trusted each-other, they just had a common enemy. This is why after Pompey was defeated they separated and Cato went to North Africa without him.
@@savvageorge Pompey was in league with Sulla too, and Cato hated Sulla
Cato was the biggest failure in the world. Bibilus looks like a beacon of accomplishment in comparison.
Fuck Cato. He died in too dignified and not painful enough of a way if you ask me.

Edward Jacobs That would take a lot.
@@unacittabizzarraechiassosa4143 He's chipping away at it.
don't forget the Year of the Four Emperors and the Jewish Revolt
I think people sometimes forget that yes, the Byzantine Empire was the Roman Empire still, they considered themselves the Roman empire lol.
As long as tribune Aquila allows him to go through it all
This is the best history channel on RUclips hands down. we should call you Father.
*Pater
If you wanted to call him "God's son", it would be "Dei Filius".
Emperor Augustus called himself "Divi Filius" ("son of the divine [Iulius]")
Make him Caesar!
+Jason Martin Caesar! Caesar! Caesar!
Hail Civilis!
My favorite part is when you zoom in on the square dramatically like it's a person.
It's interesting that Cato practically tried to silence a man who kept talking involving a bill while later, he, himself, would use it as filibuster against one of Caesar's bills.
You expect politicians not to be hypocritical?
@@rjs6510 Well, let's just say I just picked up on this hypocracy just now, but I am not surprised that he would pull this.
@@rjs6510 its not hyprocisry
One was legal
the other wasnt
@@palatasikuntheyoutubecomme2046 It wasn't illegal to bypass the senate. It was just unorthodox. Rome did not have any rules against this act and it was by design. The problem we see is that Tribunes of the Pleb doesn't work as a system in a deeply divided political system and that's where a part of the problems stem from.
@@jerm70It was illegal to commit violence upon a Tribune, which Carl’s friend did when silencing Metullus.
Time to drop everything im working on right now for 6 mins
same here
I think you mean 10 seconds, clearly says that at the start XD
Yup, once again.
haha. i literally just did that.
Hear hear!
Cato's performance at 5:39 is amazing. So intense.
Your videos show the other side of who Julius Caesar was. He wasn't just a man of the people, but a man of ambition to have great power for his own goals.
GOT Westeros haven't got shit on Rome. No nation was as violent, insane, illogical, pragmatic, brilliant, brave or badass as Rome. It was a mass of epic contradictions!
America definitely fits that mold
Plenty of nations have been and are like that. We're all human
@Sixshooter 9 A confusing and rather ignorant statement, in my opinion. Just because you're emotionally attached to your own country and its pride, doesn't make it superior. What geography is best is not for you to decide. There's plenty of beautiful countries I'd like to visit, and America makes 10th place. Not to say it isn't beautiful, I'm just pointing it out. And furthermore, a country doesn't become a superpower due to geography. In what sense? Productivity and wealth? If that's the case, there's plenty of countries that beat the USA by a major landslide, only they are tinier countries without the same population.
And if population figures don't really count, would a 20 billion population nation capable of producing a net worth of $2M a year be vastly superior or a superpower compared to a 1,000 population capable of producing a net worth of $1,9M?
I get your point. Rome is awesome. It is. But let's not poison the conversation with meaningless and sentimental nationalism.
@Sixshooter 9 What?? You think having some of the most fertile land in Europe on top of an extremely difficult to cross mountain range covering the entire north end of the peninsula, which as a peninsula is surrounded by water isn't a *HUGE* geographical advantage in the days of the Roman Republic?? You're nuts!
@Sixshooter 9 you sound so stupid, first off being in the Mediterranean on a large peninsula I'm sure had 0%, absolutely nothing at all(not even a little bit), to do with romes success. And secondly America is a superpower because of their technological innovations in both private sectors like the military/tech/economy not the geography alone. And if you truly believe they dont have anything in common then you need to study BADLY lmao
there's evidence to suggest (in coin dies) that the city was going through an economic depression around this time and creditors were probably calling in their debts. catos legislation on the dole may have been a reaction to this problem as much as a purely political act
Keep these coming Historia Civilis! Once my little cousin saw me rewatching His Year for Julius Caesar, and asked if it was for school. I said, "Nah, this is pure pleasure little cuz"
does anyone else see the dots between the squares?
I don't
The things you learn from RUclips comments sections...
No
I can't under it now. What have you done. FFS
Bob Jones stop the video at 5:43
WHAT? ANOTHER VIDEO SO SOON?! ALL OF ROME SHALL BE AMAZED AT THI# VICTORY, THIS DAY IS TRULLYYYYY OURRRSSS!
It is unwise to praise the day before sunset. But our men are winning the battle!
Man I really can’t help but wonder how involved caesar was in the catiline conspiracy
He definitely would have known about it at minimum
He was probably involved from very little to actually a lot
Best History channel on youtube!
I really enjoyed Dan Carlin's Death Throes of the Republic, which goes back all the way from the Gracchi brothers, through Marius/Sullah, till Caesar's assassination. This channel has been so great, as it really dives into the parts that Death Throes couldn't fit within its format, yet preserves the drama of this story. It's unbelievable that this stuff really happened, truth really is stranger than fiction...
Cato was spot on on the Caesar score too, he was definitely pulling strings considering what happened later haha. Pure intriguing period of Roman history.
Nice video man!
We need a good "Rome" like tv show that covers Roman politics from early Julius Caesar to either the ascention of Augustus or the end of the Julio-Claudian Dynasty.
I don't know if it fits your description, but there was an HBO series that ran for 2 seasons called "Rome" that followed (sort of) the tale of Julius and Augustus Caesar (be it not 100% historically accurate, nor filled to the brim with politics like it probably was back then). There are some parts that show all famous people that this channel mentioned to date- Caesar, Cicero and Cato, although the major focus is on Caesar, with Cicero being a big supporting character and Cato to an even lesser extent.
I recommend it very much, even without considering it being about Rome it is a very good show.
I have seen it, but on my opinion the focus was completely off, focussing of Vorenus en Pullo for no particular reason. I normally just skip all their scenes. In my opinion that series isnt good.
Yeah I thought that what you meant, wasn't sure though.
I disagree with saying that the focus was off, as I think that it was a very clever way to put some more narrative-driven characters in it without compromising its historical accuracy (as much as possible obviously), but I can completely see your point. I do think that it was a missed opportunity to do a new, "modern" TV show about how Roman life was, with all of its wonder and weird-to-contemporary-people glory and beauty.
Another TV show that's supposed to be really good (I'm saying supposed because I haven't watched it myself) is "I Claudius", which follows Emperor Claudius and the intricate and shady business around him and the manipulations trying to be the strongest person in the Roman empire. Heard almost only good things about it.
I have seen I Claudius, it is magnificent. It focuses on the right characters and is based on the intrigue of the time. I would recommend watching it.
A good modern series should focus on a combination of intrigue, politics (including policy), and battles. Though battles might be too expensive.
If such a show will air and will be good all-round, I'd would be following it religiously.
Sadly enough it seems people aren't really interested in accurate historic dramas (even though Vikings, even be it not historically accurate, having a large fan-base).
Sir could you please make an episode explaining the events leading up to the second punic war?
yes!
That would be nice!
If you want, Extra Credits has a small episode or two (in their Extra History Series about the Second Punic War) having a simplified explanation of the first punic war and the events leading up to the war.
Thanks!
The channel 'Reply History' doesn''t have anything specifically on the Punic wars, but there is one on the battle of Philippi. If you like HC's style of video then you could enjoy RH too.
Your videos are always great to watch. I appreciate all the work you put into them. Looking forward to the next one as always.
I'm absolute loving these recent videos, keep it up :)
Love the channel. Please continue to put up these great snippets of history on YT.
Thank you man for being more active. I came here initially for the battles but now love all of your content! Keep it up.
Really looking forward to any future Augustus videos you'll make.
I've just read the SPQR series of books. Your videos make so much more sense of it all. Thank you.
Your videos are always brilliant.
Keep up the good work!
Man, you consistently knock it out of the park. There's not a single one of your videos I dislike. Keep it up!
I LOVE your videos. You have a wonderful understanding of Roman history, and you explain in a way that I can understand and put into my knowledge in a clear, concise way.
PLEASE do a His Year on SULLA! No one seems to be talking about Sulla, and the guy was one of the most dramatic figures in all of Roman history!
There is a character in skyrim called nepos and he is part of the conspiracy in Markarth.
I immediately thought of that too! Good old Nepos the Nose haha
Also "Marcus Tullius Cicero" has two major character names
I would love it so much if you did a video(s) on Scipio Africanus & The Second Punic War. I thoroughly enjoy all of your videos, they have enriched my understanding of these events immensely and that’s why, selfishly, i hope you continue with Roman History. I think it would be great to see how you would go about presenting the vast panorama of events and people that make up the story of the Second Punic War.
This channel deserves much more subscribers !
Amazing music today. Great video man, so glad you are back and working hard. :)
I love this channel so much
Thanks for the new video!! Love the channel!
Great work! I appreciate your videos!
I'm really loving these videos.
BEST CHANNEL. DUDe, you are the best at what you do!
Excellent video, as always.
Love your videos man great to see you are making more again!
Love these videos man! Like straight and watch !
Love Love Love Love this series MAKE MORE!!!!!! you will gain subscribers fast!
Another great video, keep up the amazing work!
When he said that Catalina’s supporters were “hanging around” I chuckled a little
Yoooo y'all should really consider using the audio as podcasts. I always listen to them that way through RUclips Red and let me just say I cannot get enough, f****** love yalls content.
love this channel.
amazing!! keep up the good work!!
Love your videos, keep up the good work mate
loving this series
Another great video, keep it up!!!!
Historia Civilis, you sir, are awesome!
Damn! Videos are being popped out like crazy from you now! I love it =D
It would be really awesome if you could post your sources in the description, please keep releasing more, simply great stuff
Love these recounts.
love these series!
A video on Augustus would be fantastic and perhaps the collapse of the Roman Empire
You mean the history of the empire
These videos are great.
Have you done a video on Sulla yet? Can't find it. By the way, your videos are by far the best historical videos on RUclips and the often complex and confusing intricacies of Roman politics are presented and summed up by you extremely well. Thank you.
I love this channel!
I mean I wouldn't say Mattello was assaulted by what happened to him and he was breaking the law by speaking despite being vetoed.
Awesome as always mate!
I just want to thank you for these videos. This is much better than the history channel.
Finally after Cicero I was waiting for this.
Do more videos on Caesar. I want to know about his post-consulship career and the events leading to his assassination. I know this information is out there, but I love learning from you.
I love these "their years" vids keep it up
man your videos are all dope
i dont usually sub to anyone's accounts. you might be the first, actually. keep up the great work. your videos, on a time period that fascinates me, are incredibly insightful!
Not really sure about the music being so loud but keep it up, loving these!
yet another nice video.. would you mind makeing a playlist in cronologic order.. since im a little confused in what happen when and what led to what.. keep up the good work
Fully enjoying the His Year series. And the battles. And all of them now that I think about it. Keep up the good work.
PS - do the Eleusinian Mysteries! Or, maybe Justinian I's closing of the mysteries, temples, Plato's Academy, and the like. Very rich and rare subject request. Oh! oh! OR, the burnings of the library at Alexandria. =)
Your videos on the politics of the late republic are great. I would love to see more.
I'm loving this series. Are you going to cover some consul from the earlier part of the republic?
Love your videos! Can you do one about the civil war between Sulla and Marius?
great stuff
I can't wait till you finish Octavian versus Anthony. You doing a great service for history sir
please never stop making videos
Sulla videos! Let's beef up that Roman history playlist my guy
YOU ARE GREAT!
I love the chat bubbles! They are hilarious!
Awesome video, as always, could we have a later period battle, like a Hundred Years' War battle etc, love your channel :)
I love these videos about as much as the battle commentaries
just a suggestion, video on the Marian epoch, stretching from the Cimbrian war all the way to Sulla, I think it's a great topic! Also your videos are amazing!
Great videos. Just enough graphics and great pacing.
I can't explain how much I like these videos, absolutely my favorite content to consume while I work. Thank you Historia Civil is😁❤
I love your videos, do you think that you could make one about the Ides of March?
Another Historia Civilis video!? YES!!!
You are awesome
You've been on a roll!
Was posting that comment part of your plan?
Amsel Smith
Of courshe
Could you do a video on Sulla? or have you already and I am missing something? He is precursor of the eventual Empire and the only I can think of from history who simply retired after his reign of terror, or so is my understanding. I would be fascinated to see an in-depth analysis of this period.
FANASTIC !!! please do more on early roman republic, - LIVY - early roman history.
This would make a great computer game.
It's almost surreal how enthralling and informative this channel is-- I prefer these simple (yet well narrated) videos over any sensational BS the History Channel has to offer.
It made perfect sense now that I’ve watched your video. Cato by being in office would have denied it to a less desirable candidate, sort of like a saboteur of sorts amongst the tribunes.
Your material is really good! You should do a Sulla video, and if you haven't already, a complete Carthage and Alexander video series.
Catalina's supports where "Hanging around." Sounds like some of his other friends from the last video
Great episode,I'd love an episode on ceasars rise as an emperor and his death
The optical illusion starting at 5:39 really messed up my concentration
Nice videos this week
