Second Triumvirate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 6 views

  • The Second Triumvirate is the name historians give to the official political alliance of Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus (later known as Augustus), Marcus Aerulius Lepidus, and Mark Antony, formed on 26 November 43 BC

      it was caused by the senates assassinating caesar. so now octavian, marc antony, and lepidus got together to start a civil war between them and the senates. it lsted one year for it to end

      they were against eachother in war. cleopatra was on antonys side sice they loved eachother. they had war on sea. eventually cleopatra left because she thought antony was dead. antony saw her leave so he left his soldiers behind and followed cleopatra. now the soldiers tht survived went on octavians side.
  • Both Antony and Cleopatra committed suicide in Alexandria, and Octavian personally took control of Egypt and Alexandria

      anthony thought that cleopatra was dead and he tryied to kill himself.but then they told him that she was not dead and they took him to where she was.when he got there he died in front of her.then that same day she died

      i wanted to highlight thois paragraph but it ddint let me. anyways antony and cleopatra wanted to go against octavian because they wanted to have power of rome and egypt together. but antony was defeate because his legions left antony alone and they went to octavian. tht was since they were doing war on ocean and he left his troops behind cuz he saw cleopatra leaving sea

  • After the Battle, the Triumvirs agreed to divide the provinces of the Republic into spheres of influence. Octavian — who had begun calling himself "Divi filius" ("son of the divinity") after Caesar's deification as Divus Iulius ("the Divine Julius") and now styled himself simply "Imperator Caesar" — took control of the West, Antony of the East, and Lepidus of Hispania and Africa. This pact enacted by the Treaty of Brundisium (Brundisium Agreement) in September 40 BC.

      eventually antony came up with the parts they controlled cuz in the movie he said octavian could have th west, lepidus could have hispania and africa, and himself could have the rest.

      yea like he was the special one and he could just keep the rest
  • The Caesarean background of the Triumvirs made it no surprise that immediately after the conclusion of the first civil war of the post-Caesar period, they immediately set about prosecuting a second: Caesar's murderers Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus had usurped control of most of the Eastern provinces, including Macedonia, Asia Minor, and Syria. In 42 BC, Octavian and Antony set out to war, defeating Brutus and Cassius in two battles fought at Philippi.
    • emily caba
       
      why would brutus be the last one to stab caesar. he was like a son to him. the only reason why he did tht was because brutus didnt like wat he was doing.

      its a good thing after they assasinated caesar, antony octavian and lepidus killed them

  • Despite having married Octavia, Octavian's sister, in 40 BC (Octavian had married Antony's stepdaughter Clodia Pulchra three years earlier), Antony openly lived in Alexandria with Cleopatra VII of Egypt, even siring children with her. A master of propaganda, Octavian turned public opinion against his colleague. When the Triumvirate's second term expired in 33 BC, Antony continued to use the title Triumvir; Octavian, opting to distance himself from Antony, refrained from using it. Octavian illegally obtained Antony's will in July 32 BC, and exposed it to the Roman public: it promised substantial legacies to Antony's children by Cleopatra, and instructed that his body should be shipped to Alexandria for burial. Rome was outraged, and the Senate declared war.

Also I think that Rome is a very big place and it should have more territorys. I think this because it is a very historical place.

  • Roman Republic was the phase of the ancient Roman civilization characterized by a republican form of government; a period which began with the overthrow of the Roman monarchy, c. 509 BC, and lasted over 450 years until its subversion, through a series of civil wars, into the Principate form of government and the Imperial period.

      I think that it should have lasted atleast 50 more years. This way it would have been 500 years b.c. . Also I think that the ancient roman civilazation over threw the roman monarchy becuase they were tired of the same thing. I also think that they wanted a change after soo long.

  • Main articles: Latin literature, Roman art, Roman music, and Roman architecture Roman literature was from its very inception influenced heavily by Greek authors. Some of the earliest works we possess are of historical epics telling the early military history of Rome. As the republic expanded, authors began to produce poetry, comedy, history, and tragedy. Virgil represents the pinnacle of Roman epic poetry. His Aeneid tells the story of flight of Aeneas from Troy and his settlement of the city that would become Rome. Lucretius, in his On the Nature of Things, attempted to explicate science in an epic poem. The genre of satire was common in Rome, and satires were written by, among others, Juvenal[92] and Persius. The rhetorical works of Cicero are considered to be some of the best bodies of correspondence recorded in antiquity. In the 3rd century BC, Greek art taken as booty from wars became popular, and many Roman homes were decorated with landscapes by Greek artists. Portrait sculpture[93] during the period utilized youthful and classical proportions, evolving later into a mixture of realism and idealism. Advancements were also made in relief sculptures, often depicting Roman victories. Detail of a mosaic found in Pompeii. The figure on the left is playing the double aulos, double-reed pipes; the figure in the middle, cymbalum, small, bronze cymbals; and on the right, the tympanum, a tambourine-like drum. Music was a major part of everyday life. The word itself derives from Greek μουσική (mousike), "(art) of the Muses".[94] Many private and public events were accompanied by music, ranging from nightly dining to military parades and maneuvers. In a discussion of any ancient music, however, non-specialists and even many musicians have to be reminded that much of what makes our modern music familiar to us is the result of developments only within the last 1,000 years; thus, our ideas of melody, scales, harmony, and even the instruments we use would not be familiar to Romans who made and listened to music many centuries earlier. Over time, Roman architecture was modified as their urban requirements changed, and the civil engineering and building construction technology became developed and refined. The Roman concrete has remained a riddle, and even after more than 2,000 years some Roman structures still stand magnificently.[95] The architectural

  • Roman religious beliefs date back to the founding of Rome, around 800 BC. However, the Roman religion commonly associated with the republic and early empire did not begin until around 500 BC, when Romans came in contact with Greek culture, and adopted many of the Greek’s religious beliefs. Private and personal worship was an important aspect of religious practices. In a sense, each household was a temple to the gods. Each household had an altar (lararium), at which the family members would offer prayers, perform rites, and interact with the household gods. Many of the gods that Romans worshiped came from the Proto-Indo-European pantheon, others were based on Greek gods. The two most famous deities were Jupiter (the king God) and Mars (the god of war). With its cultural influence spreading over most of the Mediterranean, Romans began accepting foreign gods into their own culture, as well as other philosophical traditions such as Cynicism and Stoicism

  • During this period, an army formation of around 5,000 men (of both heavy and light infantry) was known as a legion. The manipular army was based upon social class, age and military experience.[104] Maniples were units of 120 men each drawn from a single infantry class. The maniples were typically deployed into three discreet lines based on the three heavy infantry types. Each first line maniple were leather-armoured infantry soldiers who wore a brass breastplate and a brass helmet adorned with 3 feathers approximately 30 cm (12 in) in height and carried an iron-clad wooden shield. They were armed with a sword and two throwing spears. The second

      In 509 BC they had to overthrow their king. Ever since that the romans thought it would be better to live without just one king ruling everything. The problem was that when they had a king they have the power to do something so they could do what ever they want and take advantage of that power. After that Romans hated kings. You know whats cool I recently found out that the word dictator came from the Romans and the Romans only had dictators when it was and emergency.

      The romans spoke latin but the country that spoke similar to the romans were italians. Yes, Latinos had come from the romans (latin).

    • Veronica Rodriguez
       
      Also to pick the dictator they woluld pick the best general. The dictatror would only take charge for one year because some would love the power and try to become king. But the Roman hated kings so if that happened they would be killed. If the dictator dies or gets sick they would be replaced with another dictator, but that dictator would only compelete the time that needed to be filled.
    • Gabriela Morales
       
      In Ancient Rome though they hated kings when it was a military emergency they picked like a military leader to step in. They only had one year as to America we have four if you are president. The reason they had dictators was that if like a country wanted to invade Ancient Rome the king could declare what to do which is pretty good if it's a military leader because they would know exactly what to do. That is also where to word dictator came from.

Some weren't very well leaders or generals , but somtimes the other was. Either way if they hated each other they both knew they had to get along. i think it wasn't nesscary at all to pass laws just to make the other consul mad, but that's how it was in Rome.
  • In 83 BC, he returned to Rome, overcame all resistance, and recaptured the city. Sulla and his supporters then slaughtered most of Marius' supporters. Sulla, having observed the violent results of radical popular reforms, was naturally conservative. As such, he sought to strengthen the aristocracy, and by extension the senate.[56] Sulla made himself dictator, passed a series of constitutional reforms, resigned the dictatorship, and served one last term as consul. He died in 78 BC.

  • The first Roman republican wars were wars of both expansion and defence, aimed at protecting Rome itself from neighbouring cities and nations and establishing its territory in the region.[123] Initially, Rome's immediate neighbours were either Latin towns and villages,[124] or else tribal Sabines from the Apennine hills beyond. One by one Rome defeated both the persistent Sabines and the local cities that were either under Etruscan control or else Latin towns that had cast off their Etruscan rulers.[125] Rome defeated Latin cities in the Battle of Lake Regillus in 496 BC,[124][126] the Battle of Mons Algidus in 458 BC, the Battle of Corbione in 446 BC,[127][128] the Battle of Aricia,[129] and an Etruscan city in the Battle of the Cremera in 477 BC,[130][131]

  • Pompey's death did not result in an end to the civil war as Caesar's enemies were manifold and continued to fight on. In 46 BC Caesar lost perhaps as much as a third of his army, but ultimately came back to defeat the Pompeian army of Metellus Scipio in the Battle of Thapsus, after which the Pompeians retreated yet again to Iberia. Caesar then defeated the combined Pompeian forces at the Battle of Munda.

      I did not know that caesar had a army ? but it looks like they were a good army beacuse they came back to defeat the pompeian. cesar was very loayal .
  • The Roman military was split into the Roman army and the Roman navy, although these two branches were less distinct than they tend to be in modern defence forces. Within the top-level branches of army and navy, structural changes occurred both as a result of positive military reform and through organic structural evolution.

  • The native language of the Romans was Latin. Although surviving Latin literature consists almost entirely of Classical Latin , an artificial and highly stylized and polished literary language from the 1st century BC, the actual spoken language was Vulgar Latin, which significantly differed from Classical Latin in grammar, vocabulary, and eventually pronunciation. Rome's expansion spread Latin throughout Europe, and over time Vulgar Latin evolved and dialectized in different locations, gradually shifting into a number of distinct Romance languages.[91] Many of these languages, including French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian and Spanish, flourished, the differences between them growing greater over time. Although English is Germanic rather than Romanic in origin, English borrows heavily from Latin and Latin-derived words.

  • It was the People of Rome - and thus the assemblies - who had the final say regarding the election of magistrates,[8] the enactment of new laws,[9] the carrying out of capital punishment, the declaration of war and peace, and the creation (or dissolution) of alliances.[8] There were two types of legislative assemblies. The first was the comitia ("committees"),[10] which were assemblies of all citizens. The second was the concilia ("councils"), which were assemblies of specific groups of citizens.[11]

  • The constitutional history of the Roman Republic can be divided into five phases. The first phase began with the revolution which overthrew the monarchy in 510 BC. The final phase ended with the revolution which overthrew the Roman Republic, and thus created the Roman Empire, in 27 BC. Throughout the history of the republic, the constitutional evolution was driven by the struggle between the aristocracy and the ordinary citizens.

  • [edit] The Conflict of the Orders (367-287 BC) After the plebeian aedileship had been created, the patricians created the curule aedileship.[35] After the consulship had been opened to the plebeians, the plebeians were able to hold both the dictatorship and the censorship. In 337 BC, the first plebeian praetor was elected.[36] In 342 BC, two significant laws were passed . One of these two laws made it illegal to hold more than one office at any given point in time. The other law required an interval of ten years to pass before any magistrate could seek reelection to any office.[37]
  • [edit] The legion after the reforms of Gaius Marius (107 BC – 27 BC) In a process known as the Marian reforms, Roman consul Gaius Marius carried out a programme of reform of the Roman military.[112] In 107 BC, all citizens, regardless of their wealth or social class, were made eligible for entry into the Roman army. This move formalised and concluded a gradual process that had been growing for centuries, of removing property requirements for military service.[113] The distinction between the three heavy infantry classes, which had already become blurred, had collapsed into a single class of heavy legionary infantry. The heavy infantry legionaries were drawn from citizen stock, while non-citizens came to dominante the ranks of the light infantry. The army's higher-level officers and commanders were still drawn exclusively from the Roman aristocracy.[114] Unlike earlier in the Republic, legionaries were no longer fighting on a seasonal basis to protect their land.η[›] Instead, they received standard pay, and were employed by the state on a fixed-term basis. As a consequence, military duty began to appeal most to the poorest sections of society, to whom a salaried pay was attractive. A destabilising consequence of this development was that the proletariat "acquired a stronger and more elevated position"[115] within the state.

    • lezlie gonzalez

    • Andy Rosario
       
         Wait I thought the roman empire was rule by an emperor not a governor. Still even if a governor  can't run the city or state in the roman empire I don't think it won't to anything. Evan still cause of that roman empire  is divided into two. Still evan if a gov. coulten take care of his sitesen, it shoulden be dis bad.

    • Mark Ramos
       
      Constantine was a bit selfish during his time ruling the eastrn part of the empire. He wanted to rule all of Rome. He only ruled the eastern when he wanted to control the western as well. He was the only emperor in the eastern part, but in the western there was two emperors, Licinius, and Dia. He wanted to make friends with Licinius the stronger one. He completed the task, and he offered his sister to him to make sure he would'nt kill him. Then he told him if he kills Dia he will be the only one in charge. What Licinius doesn't know is, after Dia is killed, then Constantine will kill Licinius. Making him rule all of Rome.

      Even by the standards of the rapidly declining Western Empire, Honorius' reign was precarious and chaotic. His throne was guarded by his principal general, Flavius Stilicho, who was successively Honorius's guardian (during his childhood) and his father-in-law (after the emperor became an adult). Stilicho's generalship helped preserve some level of stability, but with his execution, the Western Roman Empire moved closer to collapse.

News of invasion, revolt, natural disaster, or epidemic outbreak was carried by ship or mounted postal service, often requiring much time to reach Rome, and for Rome's orders to be realized in the province of origin.

Caesarion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 26 views

  • Ptolemy XV, sometimes referred to as "Ptolemy Caesar", most commonly known by his nickname Caesarion, was born in Egypt in 47 BC and was the son of Julius Caesar. He spent two of his early years, from 46–44 BC, in Rome, where he and his mother were Caesar's guests. Cleopatra VII hoped that her son would eventually succeed his father as the head of the Roman Republic as well as Egypt.

    • ashley hernandez
       
      I think Caesarion wished he had all the goals his father had made in his lifetime.But Caesarion had destroyed that goal by murdering his family member.I don't agree of what Octavian has done to Caesar's only son and Cleopatra's, too. Why would Marc Anthony commit suicide?

  • When Octavian invaded Egypt in 30 BC, Cleopatra VII sent Caesarion, then seventeen years old, to the Red Sea port of Berenice for safety, with possible plans of an escape to India. Octavian captured the city of Alexandria on August 1, 30 BC, the date that marks the official annexation of Egypt to the Roman Republic

      he captured octvian and killed him and her sevrent posioned himself amd took marc atony before he died of suiced.
  • Mark Antony had committed suicide prior to Octavian's entry into the capital; Cleopatra followed his example by committing suicide on August 12, 30 BC. Caesarion's guardians, including his tutor, either were themselves lured by false promises of mercy into returning the boy to Alexandria or perhaps even betrayed him; the records are unclear. Octavian had Caesarion executed there, with the words "Two Caesars is one too many". No events concerning his death have been documented. Due to his young age of 17 years it is supposed he was executed by strangulation.

      mark antony committed suicide because of octavian came in to capital cleopatra also committed suicide and octavian had caesarion executed
    • ashley hernandez
       
      why did marc anthony commited suicide because of octavian came in to capital.Cleopatra might have been the bravest to commit suicide with a snake. I still wonder for what Octavian wanted Caesarion get executed. I think he wanted Caesarion executed because of all the ultimate power of everything Caesar had before.
    • daniel arocho
       
      i think octavion had executed caesarion to get all of ceasars belongins.but if it was foor that perpus then octavion was a very selfish person.because there was no point for that execution.

    • ashley hernandez
       
      Octavian wanted ultimate power of the whole world. Why was Octavian appear as pharaoh and the successor to Caesarion? I think he just wanted to be in control of the land that Caesar had conquer during he was still alive.Octavian had maybe had absolute control of Egypt because he was adopted nephew of Caesar.

      Caesarion was the son of cleoptra and caeser
  •  
    ceasarion died at the hands of octavian ceasar around the same time cleopatra died
  •  
    He was named Caesarion because that means little caesar. Cleopatra and Julius Caesar were his parents. They named him little caesar cince his father's name was Caesar and he was his son. Caesarion was supposed to be next heir of the throne after Caesar was declared dictator for life. He was the first to be dictator for life. Caesarion was the prince of Egypt since his mother was the queen. He is not the dictator of Rome. Because after Caesar was assasinated he did not have time to change his will. So now Octavian got everything even his name!

      yeah octavion had to be very smart if he defeated an egyption army and a roman army. and he was short a cople thousand man. he was smart enough to war at sea. octavion was a very smart man. he fought at water so the armys could be closer to equal to men
    • daniel arocho
       
      octavian is smart.probably the smartest move he couldv done was being located on a different ship not on his.it fooled anthony.and because of that move the wars was being won by octavian.so he was smart for the moves he did.

      yep thats right. it was all marc antony's idea. and that was a mistake he had ever done. he had more soldiers on land. but on water less (equal soldiers like octavian). in my guess i think he wouldve won if he had war on land. i would understand if he did it with more people on water. but my point is he did make a mistake

      octabion killed caesars xson and then took the ring that julia had given to ponpey and then caesar got it and handed it to his son
    • ashley hernandez
       
      Octavian caught Caesarion Caesar's only son he got him killed.I think he knew that if he didnt killed him that Caesarion might get power if Cleopatra makes him king of Egypt.If Caesarion became king he can conquer places.But,Caesarion means "little boots."
  • Cleopatra heard the news about Mark Antony's death

      After she heard the news about Marc Antony's death she prepared her ship to leave.When Marc Antony saw her ship living he got on a life boat and left he saw some of his men asking for help out of the water.He just went over him.When he got on Cleopatra's ship he just stayed speechless because of how guilty he was of living his men to die.

    • Jihad Little

  • Brutus was persuaded into joining the conspiracy against Caesar by the other senators
    • ashley hernandez
       
      Why would he do this to the man that forgave fro he had done before?If it wasnt to Caesar he had wroten that letter would you think that man would have forgive for what he had done.No.Caesar was a loyal,smart man that didnt deserve this.
  • Antony, as a show of great respect, ordered Brutus' body to be wrapped in Antony's most expensive purple mantle
    • ashley hernandez
       
      After Antony put his purple mantle over his body.The troops said "Hail,Antony."Why would Antony show respect to Brutus after being involved in the assasination? I think that was kind of right but at that same time not.
  • his wife, Calpurnia Pisonis
    • ashley hernandez
       
      She had a dream that she saw Caesar's statue nd saw that it full of blood.And that a bird came flying inside the Senate with a branch a dropped it in front Pompey's statue.This was the most famous assasination of all time yet.This was very painful for Cleopatra to handel she couldnt stand hearing about that she would cry forever.

      One day a man cam out of the crowd and told Caesar "beware the ides of March." Caesar didnt take it that seriously.That was the most tragic day for the Roman people.When they cremated them people started throwing furniture so it would be part of caesar's life.That day could never forget.

      how long did it last?this was the most famous battle of all time in Rome.I think this could have lasted at least 2 years.this was between marc antony,lucullus VS the assasins of Julius Caesar Marc Antony. MArc Antony and lucullus didnt get defeated.

    • ashley hernandez
       
      he committed suicide because he wanted to get that part of that life all over.when marc antony put his red cape on brutus after he did that they said "Hail Marc Antony."i would have been very uilty about the murder of Caesar because he was the greatest general and counsel of Rome.If I was Brutus i would have been guilty
