    There is something undeniably poetic about the murderer of the most prominent Roman of his age, dying because he couldn't tell friend from foe amongst the Romans. He claimed to stand for Republican values, when the Republic was already doomed. Yet he was sincerely a man of principled beliefs (even if said beliefs were misguided, to put it mildly). And he single-handedly redeemed the Roman East, after Crassus catastrophic failure. No wonder Shakespeare was obsessed.

      @@michaelsinger4638 What I will say is it took courage to claim his inheritance. He could have stayed out of it and just collected the money without putting his neck on the line.
      That being said, it's sort of like playing poker with 90% of the chips. Things Caesar did in virtually every theatre of war were much more harrowing (doesn't help Augustus' street cred that he just "happened" to be taken ill during many an important battle -- in his defense he didn't exactly seek it out, as his adoptive father had. Fortune favors the bold, after all -- or, just the fortunate.)

    Reupload for sure
    Edit: My mistake. Kings and Generals did a video on this battle few weeks ago. Sometimes I really feel these channels post the same or a similar video every so often.

    The death of Cassius has to be among the strangest and tragic deaths of all time.
