  • Fun fact about Aurelian:
    He
    • praised the Sun
    • built a (tall, powerful, beatiful) wall
    • drank Mountain Dew (this one is disputed, however, by some current historical studies in which the lack of archeological evidence of a Mountain Dew in the 3 century AD is presented as the evidence)

      I would like to make a correction. The Romans at the point of Gallienus (spelling might be off.) started to move toward a cavalry army due to having to face many threats in quick succession. The Illyrian Emperors were the inheritors of this system. Though the military of the Empire was still in flux until the reign of Constantine.

      @liviuganea4108 Před 3 lety +22

      @@NarutoninjaXV Except the cavalry was way less numerous than infantry. For infantry, you have to feed the soldier and give him armor, a tunic, weapons, a ginormous scutum and his sack to potter his provisions to the front. For cavalry, you had to do all that (minus the scutum) AND feed the horse (it takes 3 times more food than a soldier - if I know my "horse anatomy" correctly), equip it with horse armor and prepare that horse for battle which is difficult. And counting the numbers only, for every horse you can have as many as 12 men, depends on the region, humans fuck more and birth more. Let's not forget the Romans went from a phalanx to a manipular and the cohort system. And the greeks didn't like cavalry either.

      ​@@NarutoninjaXV Not really. Cataphracts were present before and after the battle of Carrhae and the romans kept expanding. Just ask Daddy Caesar. They didn't have many or big changes in their evolution. If you mean light cavalry, that problem was always there. Only with the knights was this changed since a mounted knight could devastate heavy infantry. That's why the pikemen were invented. What changed was the need for mobility. You cannot have a state the size of the 117 AD Roman Empire with heavy need for mobility and expect the classical legions to manage.
      Armies WERE composed entirely of cavalry sometimes. Something something Temujin.

    Throughout the last millennium, Rome endured many dark times… Each producing Great men of their own.
    The fruits of their efforts were enjoyed by weak men, whose degeneracy brought dark times.
    The Empire is now at the mercy of evil and chaos. Enemies within, abroad… Tearing it apart.
    And in these darkest of times… The Greatest of All Men Arose, to fulfill the prophecy.
    In Aurelia… The Sun Priestess of the Aurelius Clan gave birth to a Divine Sun/Son: Aurelian.
    At the start of the crisis, he enlisted in the Roman Legions when she needed him most.
    Battle after battle, he defeated Rome’s enemies with talent and skill never seen before.
    Emperor after Emperor he served, killing barbarians and traitors alike… Always Loyal and Victorious.
    With tears in his eyes… Claudius begged Aurelian to save Rome as her Emperor with his last breath…
    For God and Empire..! He put on his mask. Marching to Italy and deposing the usurper Quintillus.
    When the Vandals dare to invade his home, he marched back and slaughtered Every Last One of Them.
    And as the Germs dared to invade Italy itself, he crushed their Hordes against the ocean, denying any mercy.
    Once in Rome… He restored the economy from decadence, cleansing the city of all corrupt Senators.
    To make Rome eternal, he ordered built the Aurelian Walls so that it would stand a thousand years more.
    After decades of terrorizing the Danube, Aurelian crushed the Goths, delivering justice to Cannabas.
    For the Empire’s sake, he evacuated the citizens of Dacia, strengthening the Danube against invasion.
    Sailing east, Aurelian gathered his Cavalrymen and slaughtered Zenobia’s army, making her flee away.
    Palmyra was then destroyed for all time as Zenobia was captured before fleeing to the Sassanids.
    Punished by Sol, Shapur was banished from this mortal realm and Valerian’s remains recovered.
    Returning West, he defeated Tetricus’s Legion of Traitors, making him bow once again to the Light of Rome.
    Restoring the Empire from the brink of collapse, Aurelian was acclaimed to Restitutor Orbis: The Restorer of the World.
    In his triumph he has Zenobia judged guilty, having her executed and lifting Dido’s Curse forever.
    Ruling alongside his wife, he eradicated degeneracy from the streets…
    Restoring Law and Order to Rome! Bringing Peace, Freedom, Justice and Security to his Empire, he began rebuilding it from its ashes.
    As the Hero of Prophecy, Aurelian was the only Emperor to be Luckier than Augustus and better than Trajan.
    To establish an eternality of Order, Aurelian served as a model to the best men of the next generation.
    In only just Five Glorious Years, Aurelian had made Rome One Empire, with One Emperor, under One God.
    Ave Restitutor Orbis, may you live forever in Sol.
