Previous Video : • Julius Caesar - Part 1 - Early Life • • Hey Guys, Josh from the Ancient History Guy Here, and we are looking at the life of one of Rome's greatest Generals, Gaius Julius Caesar. Last time we looked at Caesar's early life, and his changing of careers from Priest to serving in the military to entering politics. If you missed that video there's a link in the description box. • Now Caesar didn't exactly sit around and do nothing for a few years. He entered into the Roman political system starting right at the bottom and accelerating right to the top. Between 72 BC to 61 BC he gradually climbed the ranks, eventually landing the position of governor of Spain. Along the way, he made two extremely influential friends. • One was Marcus Licinius Crassus. A man who had made a fortune from seizing assets of state enemies, as well as providing a sort of firefighting service, meaning a fire would conveniently occur and Crassus would offer to buy up the now slightly torched building, the fire would be put out and within a short time the newly renovated building would be sold for a higher profit. He was also responsible for putting down the famous Spartacus slave rebellion. • The other was Rome's greatest General Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus. Pompey had sided with Sulla during the Social Wars, and as a result, had gained a lot of support from Sulla during his dictatorship, thus kickstarting his career into overdrive. By the time of meeting Caesar, Pompey was at that stage known as Pompey the Great. • The three men essentially agreed to help each other out. Crassus would provide the funds. Pompey would provide the big name, and Caesar would appear to support each one of them in politics. This alliance became known as The First Triumvirate and it appeared beneficial to everyone. Pompey later married Caesar's daughter further aligning himself with Caesar. • In reality, Caesar was using the other two men for his own desire of achieving a higher rank. By using Pompey's name and Crassus's funds, Caesar played his way to the top of the Roman Senate and became Consul in 59 BC. There he introduced a land reform, giving some land to Pompey's veterans and the poor. This was rather unpopular with the rich landowners of the Senate, as they wanted the land for themselves. • Caesar would also become Governor of Gaul in 58 BC, and from there he saw an opportunity to vastly increase his wealth and standing in Rome. Caesar found every possible excuse he could to slowly invade Gaelic lands. Over a year he quickly reinforced Rome's position in the area, defeating several prominent tribes. • Whilst doing this, Caesar began to send back reports of his adventures to Rome. These reports were open to the public and they were written in the styling of an Action-Adventure. People began to know who Caesar was, and the number of people hero-worshipping him began to outshine Pompey. Pompey, however, would not become jealous of Caesar as he had become completely obsessed with his new wife, even skipping important political meetings, thus allowing Caesar to slip into the void Pompey had left. • With this new political muscle, Caesar managed to extend his governorship of Gaul. With the extra time, Caesar made exhibitions past the Rhine and to Britain, something that no Roman had ever done before. The reports Caesar sent back from Britain were particularly popular with the Roman people, as this was a strange island that no Roman had ever been to and some didn't believe it existed. • However, Caesar's powerful alliance was about to fall apart. Crassus had wanted to make a mark in military history to eclipse Pompey. Since Caesar’s popularity was on the rise, Crassus wanted to do better than both of them. He invaded Parthia in 53 BC but died in an ambush. Caesar's daughter, who had been married to Pompey also died in childbirth the year before, and with Crassus dead, the first Triumvirate officially dissolved. With Pompey quickly trying to reassert his position he had left vacant for so long and becoming one of Caesar's most dangerous political enemies in the process. However, Caesar had bigger problems to deal with, as the people he was conquering began to rebel. • Join us next time to see how Caesar deals with this growing problem in Gaul.
