  • Chauliac's Chirurgia magna, his seminal work on surgery, was complete in 1363 in Avignon. In seven volumes, it covers anatomy, bloodletting, cauterization, drugs, anesthetics, wounds, and fractures, ulcers, special diseases, and antidotes, among other things [4]. His treatments included the use of plasters. Chauliac also believed that pus from an infection was required in the healing process.

      The Fist Triumvirate made him allot more famouse then he was before. Sadly it only lasted for about 10 years. Any more and whe will have no idea how it will change our lifes.
  • Despite their ancient pedigree, the Julii Caesares were not especially politically influential, having produced only three consuls. Caesar's father, also called Gaius Julius Caesar, reached the rank of praetor, the second highest of the Republic's elected magistracies, and governed the province of Asia, perhaps through the influence of his prominent brother-in-law Gaius Marius.[8] His mother, Aurelia Cotta, came from an influential family which had produced several consuls.

  • He began his second year with double the military strength he had begun with, having raised another two legions in Cisalpine Gaul during the winter. The legality of this was dubious, as the Cisalpine Gauls were not Roman citizens. In response to Caesar's activities the previous year, the Belgic tribes of north-eastern Gaul had begun to arm themselves.

      Man Caesar army was strong. He addet two legions. one legion is about 10000 men or so. Only if your stupid you against does numbers.
  • Three candidates stood for the consulship: Caesar, Marcus Calpurnius Bibulus, who had been aedile with Caesar several years earlier, and Lucius Lucceius. The election was dirty. Caesar canvassed Cicero for support, and made an alliance with the wealthy Lucceius,

  • The principal sources of information regarding 5Jesus' life and teachings are the four canonical gospels, especially the Synoptic Gospels,[5][6] though some scholars argue that other texts (such as the Gospel of Thomas) are as relevant as the canonical gospels to the historical Jesus.[

  • According to chroniclers such as Eusebius of Caesarea and Lactantius, the battle marked the beginning of Constantine's conversion to Christianity. Lactantius recounts that Constantine and his soldiers had a vision that God promised victory if they daubed the sign of the cross on their shields.

  • He allegedly owned more than 200,000,000 sestertii at the height of his fortune. One of the richest men of the era and still ranked in the top 10 List of most wealthy historical figures, Crassus still desired recognition for military victories in the shape of a triumph.

      I read in google that he was one of the five more riches person im rome. It was mostly becouse he won so many battles. Inclueding when he won the battle bettwen Spartacus. Another reason he got so rich becouse he help the rich and he didnt even think about the poor.

      Pompey was pretty smart making an alliance with Caesar. He endet up marrying his doughter and making Caesar a famouse romen generall. Ill show you how famouse he is. No one in schooll ever heard about Pompey but whe herd about Caesar.

  • First Triumvirate had no official status whatsoever – its overwhelming power in the Roman Republic was strictly unofficial influence, and was in fact kept secret for some time as part of the political machinations of the Triumvirates themselves.

      If it had no reason for it so why waist your time strding one. In the end wHE all know wat happens next. You pick how to kill first. They always kill the most powerfull. Then you go after the weak one.
  • The alliance had allowed the Triumvirs to dominate Roman politics completely, but it would not last indefinitely due to the ambitions, egos, and jealousies of the three; Caesar and Crassus were implicitly hand-in-glove, but Pompey disliked Crassus and grew increasingly envious of Caesar's spectacular successes in the Gallic War, whereby he annexed the whole of the Three Gauls to Rome.
