The Chosen Father of the Roman Senate

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.

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

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.

Does anyone have a feeling that it feels weird and awkward to read, or is it just me who feels this way?

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.

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.

The smell is too strong😂, I really can't get used to it. It would be better if it was more "popular"

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.
