At the end of the Roman Republic, the Big Three were divided into the first three and the last three. Logically speaking, this was a hot spot for foreign history. Although it was a long time ago, there were many historical materials that could be compared with each other, including Caesar's own battle records, Cicero's speeches, complete records of historians from the early Roman Empire to Theodosius, and the works of modern historians. Movies, TV dramas and movie novels are also popular areas, including novels with Spartacus as the protagonist, many movies related to Rome, the Spartacus series, and HBO's Rome Season 1 and 2. In terms of games, there are also many games with ancient Roman background, and there are endless works referencing its elements. But in the category of online articles, let alone high-quality ones, there are very few authors who can describe this period of history more accurately. Some authors even write routine articles, which are not very different from historical figures. I wanted to write about Rome very early, not long after I graduated from college. However, I was quite busy at work at that time and it was more troublesome to find information. The information I use now is accumulated over the years. When I saw the book about the Tsarist Russia that I was about to finish, I realized that I was very rigorous in searching for information, and even some flaws were not easy to spot. Therefore, I am also going to write about the end of the Roman Republic. I even originally wanted to write about Brutus' brother. I originally thought I would need to create my own character. When the information was complete, I never expected that in addition to the three daughters after his mother remarried, there was also a doubtful son. Although the identity of the male protagonist Marcus Junius Silanus is doubtful, the full name of the Romans has the abbreviation of the paternal ancestor, which is consistent with the husband of Seville, Decimus Silanus, and his father. Due to the relatively miserable fertility rate of the Roman aristocracy, basically His identity can be locked as the son of Decimus and Seville. Before Caesar was assassinated, he had been a young man in Caesar's camp. He was forced to change camps many times during the Octavian-Augustus period, and finally became the second consul and governor of many places in 25 BC. Finally, he retired as a member of the priesthood and died. As for the historical figures of Rome, I tried my best to use the historical figures of the time. Although the small figures basically rely on tombstones and Caesars, the accounts of many big figures are still reliable. This can be read with confidence. There are already many historical figures in the existing manuscripts. There may be some deviations from people's understanding on the Internet. Don't be surprised. As for the direction of history and the final status of the male protagonist, it will all depend on personal performance and leadership training. There is no Steppank on Appian Avenue, but the golden statue can be obtained. After all, the Junius clan has its own June, July and August in history. It really depends on the situation.
This is the biggest obstacle faced by the protagonist at the beginning of the book.
The promotion system at the end of the Roman Republic was called the Cursus Honorum. It was a legal career ladder for nobles and civilian elites to enter high-level political circles. They were required to hold public offices in order and meet age and seniority requirements. 1. Starting positions - Quaestor: the minimum threshold for public office, the age must be 30 years old (nobles) / 32 years old (commoners), responsible for treasury management, provincial finance or military logistics, and can enter the Senate after serving. 2. Advanced positions -Aedile: Not mandatory but recommended. Responsible for city public facilities, festivals, and market supervision, and can accumulate public support. - Praetor: Must be at least 39 years old (nobles)/40 years old (commoners). He has judicial power and can serve as a provincial governor or military commander. After serving, he will obtain the qualification of a senior senator. 3. High core position - Consul: The pinnacle of the official career, the age must be 42 years old (nobles) / 43 years old (commoners), 2 people are elected every year, and hold the highest administrative and military power in the country, with a one-year term. - Censor: Served by the outgoing consul, 2 people are elected every 5 years. They are responsible for census, Senate roster review, public moral supervision and state-owned asset leasing. It is a highly honorary position. Late changes: Civil wars broke out frequently at the end of the Republic. Warlords such as Caesar and Pompey broke through traditional restrictions, jumped some ladders through military prestige, and even served as dictators for life, leading to the gradual disintegration of the rules of the path of honor. Many people in the Junius clan even chose civilian status, so they must be implemented according to civilian standards.
This one is pretty good-looking too. But when I read historical texts, I really hate forcing technology trees and academic dimensionality reduction. Since we want to keep the style consistent with historical facts, we should get rid of these dramatic things. Anyway, the people who follow your book don't come here just for the pleasure of this kind of tradition. It's embarrassing to read.
Foreign history sermons will help you test the poison
Will the protagonist follow Caesar to fight in Gaul? In that chaotic era, it would be difficult if you had no military experience. If the protagonist actively gets closer to his uncle, he might become the second generation head of the Caesar Group, and probably nothing would happen to David Wu.
In Rome, the debt burden of ordinary people can be reduced. In a hundred or two hundred years, when the Senate holds a meeting to criticize mothers, they will probably have to pull out these two father and son as positive models and praise them, and then make the reigning emperor suffer from brain congestion and get annoyed when he sees the Silanus family.
Does anyone have a feeling that it feels weird and awkward to read, or is it just me who feels this way?
The author chose the theme well, but could you check the sentences after you finish writing? Some places lack subjects and you have to guess which character it is 😅
Come support this Rome
Of course, I don't want to compare it with "The Road to Augustus" Because for my book on Rome, I refer more to historical materials that can be seen Including "Biographies of Greek and Roman Celebrities", "Gaul Wars", "Civil War", "Catiline Conspiracy", "Outline of the History of Rome", "Roman Military System", "Biography of the Twelve Emperors of Rome", "History" and more There are physical books and electronic versions of scanned copies from the Commercial Press On the economic level, there are "Agricultural Chronicles", "Athens Income", "Transforming Traditional Agriculture", etc., Mainly scanned electronic versions The list of Roman consuls and the list of Roman clans that can be found on foreign websites If I must say, the Romans in British and American dramas Horses also have distortions The male protagonist was 7 years old when he appeared, and the protection period for novices is still very long. During this period, he can only study and farm honestly, and develop his own economy. If he wants to have some operations, he must at least leave Rome and go to Greece to study. If you want to make progress too much, you have to wait until you are appointed as a military tribune and have experience in the army. After the calendar, it is the time to really prepare to make a difference in Rome But during this novice period, he can still do things The first time the male protagonist is recorded in history, it was probably when Caesar sent him back to Rome from Gaul to deliver a message. At this time, according to the setting of the book, he is about 20 years old, and there is always room for performance on this stage.
I have read about half of this book. The biggest problem with the author's book is that many of the same descriptions are repeated in different chapters. The water injection is too serious, which seems to affect the readability. The author's historical materials are really good enough that I can read it as an imaginary history book rather than a novel.
Elections were held in BC, and elections are still held more than two thousand years later. Rome engaged in social crosscutting, incitement, and physical annihilation. Guess what... History, it's interesting
The smell is too strong😂, I really can't get used to it. It would be better if it was more "popular"
Some agricultural elements
Agriculture, rural areas, farmers Plowing, raising ridges, fertilizing Fertilizer type, fertilizer amount, fertilizer method Supplementary fertilizer, weeding, insect repellent Seven core contents Deep plowing, raising ridges, deep fertilization, beneficial bacteria, medium and micro amounts, temperature and humidity, organic matter , Welcome to collect, subscribe, and read. The specially selected father of the Roman Senate may also be able to see more professional knowledge points about agriculture. Other online articles may not be able to tinker with it 🤓 If anyone writes about ancient agriculture in the future, you can use my book as a reference book.
Speaking of which, there was really a Roman legacy at the end of the Kingdom of France.
Saint-Just's speech made many references to Roman times. One day, people will be surprised that people in the eighteenth century were not as advanced as they were in Caesar's time. At that time, tyrants were killed in the Senate without any other procedure than twenty-three swords; without any other law except the freedom of Rome. And today, we respectfully tried a man who was caught massacring people, and his hands were soaked in blood and sin! What procedures and investigations are you going to follow regarding the king's actions and sinister intentions? First, we have realized that the king is by no means inviolable to the master of the country; secondly, his crimes are written everywhere with the blood of the people, and those who defend you are bleeding, so to speak, all the way to your feet; thirdly, there is the example of Brutus. In this way, we should not respect the king. He oppresses a free country, declares himself an enemy of it, and abuses the laws. He should die to protect the peace of his people, since he intends to suppress them to protect his own peace. Didn't he review his troops before the battle? He ran away instead of stopping the army from shooting, didn't he? What did he do to stop the soldiers' atrocities? Someone proposed a civil trial against him, and you have realized that he is not a citizen. He did not save the people, but sacrificed the people for himself. But make haste to judge the king, for there is no citizen over him who does not have the power that Brutus had over Caesar. Since you do not accuse Leopold and Gustave of their deaths, how much less can you punish the citizens for inflicting the same behavior on the king, a foreigner. Louis was another Catiline. Like a Roman consul, he was a murderer, but he swore that he had saved his country. Louis fought against the people, and he failed. He is a savage, a foreign prisoner of war. You have seen his insidious designs and his armies. This traitor was not the king of the French, but of certain conspirators. Together with a few officials, he secretly summoned the army. He regarded citizens as his slaves and quietly exiled all moral and courageous people. He was the murderer of Bastille, Nancy, Marseille, Tournai, and the Tuileries. Which enemy or foreigner has caused us greater disaster? That he should be brought to trial at once was a suggestion made by wise and sound policy, and that he was a hostage left by the villains. Someone tries to arouse sympathy, and they quickly win tears. They did everything to get our attention, even to corrupt us. People, if the king is pardoned, then you must remember that if we are no longer worthy of your trust, you can accuse us of treachery.
69 BC, year of Hortensius and Metellus, map of Rome in 684 BC
Rome at this time was far from complete
This introduction, the last ancestor grandfather, the father of the lineage. Who are you? Wail. Jpg!
Reading should be a right according to the father
As a second generation, you should take full advantage of your father's rights. After all, you have the right to do so without expiration. Take some steps to advance and move quickly. Any kind of father will do, including father-in-law and adoptive father.
When writing about Rome, I have to mention an old book on this site called "The Road to Augustus". It is very powerful and although it was written a long time ago, it is still a classic. I hope this book can reach the same level.
When it comes to Rome, we have to talk about the American TV series and the PlayStation game Rulers: Rome
Among the film and television dramas about Rome, the two seasons of Rome and Spartacus are more attractive But there are probably a lot of historical details in it that are difficult to describe in a single sentence I have watched less of Spartacus Rome I have brushed it many times There are some small details and problems that others cannot see. Over time and with the accumulation of information, I have seen them As for P Club games Ruler: Rome That is It's Imbratus: Rome The best ones to use in this game are the Hellenistic successor countries. Because Rome is a republic, it is easy for tyranny to spread when the support of the Senate is low. I have used it several times when making achievements But it's not like I haven't done unnatural things, such as Archimedes becoming the Roman consul This is proved by pictures If anyone is willing to collect and follow up the vote, you will definitely welcome it
When did the author write about Zoroastrian Persia, which I rarely see in the historical area, or about the Middle Ages in the Middle East, it was interesting.
Reading summary
If you want to read this book, you must have a certain understanding of the period of transition from the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire, otherwise it will be very difficult to read. And you have to endure unconventional writing, translation accents, didactic taste and long dialogues.
Fans of Eastern history translate the excerpt "Crossing the Rubicon" from "History of Rome" by imitating "Historical Records", written by Marcus Silanus
At the beginning, King Wu (Caesar, here is the translator's personal posthumous title) used his few and weak troops to conquer the masses of Gaul and conquer the sea. The Senate was secretly jealous of it, so they secretly linked up with Prince Jing (Pompeo, the same translator's private posthumous name) to plot it. King Jing, the son-in-law of King Wu, was also a famous general at that time. He was jealous of King Wu's achievements, and together with the Senate, he planned to relieve King Wu of his military power. However, the Senate was careless in what they said and plotted to expose the emperor (Siranus the Younger). When the emperor heard about it, he hurriedly put on his armor and went to King Wu, saying: "The matter is urgent! The Senate and Prince Jing are plotting to remove the power of the Duke's army. The Duke should have made a plan early!" King Wu was shocked and at a loss when he heard this. At that time, the emperor was the deputy general of King Wu, and he sent two or three subordinates to declare to the three armies. The three armies had been serving King Wu for a long time. When they heard that the Senate wanted to harm King Wu, they were all very angry and said: "You are working hard on the border, serving the country with your heart, doing great work at home and abroad, and making great achievements. Yu, how can the Senate be so jealous of the wise?" King Wu heard this and said to Ying Taixi: "The reason why I work hard without caring about my own life is for Rome. Now that traitors are in the court and want to harm the loyal and good, I would rather bear the consequences of myself than Rome. "However, we still can't decide by patrolling. The emperor said: "The matter has come to this, do I have three strategies, upper, middle and lower, to offer to the Duke?" King Wu always regarded the emperor as his wise man. Hearing this, he was overjoyed and said: "The plan can be carried out quickly!" The emperor said: "The best strategy is to send the troops of Gaul quickly. , Following the old story of becoming king (Sulla) in the old year, he entered Rome and organized the dynasty. A few traitors and traitors can be eliminated, and the country can be safe. " "The middle policy is that Gaul is thousands of miles away and has millions of people. The soil is fertile, the people are fierce, and the soldiers are willing to fight. The public can send one. The army is blocked at the mountain pass, and it is enough to close the door and become a Gallic king. " "The Duke can surrender his military power according to the wishes of the Senate, defend himself, and return to Rome, but he will still be a wealthy man. The three strategies are here to be decided publicly. " King Wu Huo Ran stood up and said: "This matter is decided, I will be given the gift of my son today! In the future, we will share the wealth and honor, and we will not be in vain!" The next day, King Wu raised his account and ordered the generals to assemble the three armies and select 20,000 soldiers to march south. The Rubicon River in the army is the old system. Foreign generals who lead troops back to the country are limited to this river. Anyone who dares to lead troops across the river is a national thief, and everyone can kill him. King Wu could not make a decision, and the emperor said angrily: "At first I thought you were a hero, but I didn't expect you to be so indecisive! Now that the arrow is on the string, I have to shoot it, but I am still hesitant. What do you mean? What happened today is that we will live together if we succeed, and we will die together if we fail. How can I doubt it?" King Wu turned his horse back and said: "The dice has fallen to the ground!" Then he waved his troops to the river.
Sure enough, we still can't give up the temptation to complete great achievements with Caesar, so our poor Lord Crassus should still go to the East to get lunch.
Suddenly I saw a clue
Centurion: Marcus~~~ won the first place, so there are two bonuses, a total of 5,000 Asi. Comrade: Marcus, why are you silent. Centurion: Marcus, why are you silent? Comrade: Maybe he lost the military flag. Centurion: With your grimace, have you really lost the flag? Marcus: Sir, I, I will get it back! Centurion: Ah~ did you really lose the flag? Marcus: It's not lost, it's missing. Centurion: If you don't see it, you will lose it! Legion Commander: Twenty days? We have traveled to Asia Minor on foot, to Parthia on horseback, and to the Han Dynasty by boat! I don't care about the affairs of the Han Dynasty. If the military flag flows to Parthia, how much harm will you bring to the honor of the army and the country! Marcus: I was wrong, Legion Commander. Legion Commander: Wrong? You commit a crime!
This way of writing is so tiring that it can make people quit.
It seems too tiring, so let's change the way I write it.
This one looks much better than the previous one, but maybe that's because I wasn't interested in all the Russian names in the previous one.
Well, this classical Latin flavor is really pleasing to the eye.
Why do everyone deal with Cleopatra and not Adacino IV?
Will we follow Caesar in the Gallic War or go to the East?
