And stop making Cicero threads. Cato is where it's at.

Cato was a stubborn idiot.

He died well.

Rome is highly pro-Cesar,Cicero and Brutus were top tier politics and they made them look like faggots.

Yeah being a bitch ass opportunist is much better than believing in the republic. #makeamericagreateragain

HE WAS A CONSUL OF ROME

Cicero was shifty flip flopper.

I was going through episodes for the third time and I just noticed that caesar is a legit tyrant and had to be stopped. Learning about rome's history and I'm finding that caesar's reformist faction mainly consisted of bribing mobs with free food and assaulting people who disagreed with gangs. Even roma had problems with commies.

It is hard to imagine what went through caesar's head. One instance he is campaigning to redistribute land that elite have boguht up and neglected to poor ubrans, and in the next he is massacreing gaulish populations for seemingly no reason.

Rome was never a real democracy anyway and having all the high born fighting for the power was leading to nowhere.
Cesar did what was necesary in that moment.
he had some of tyrant in him without a doubt nevertheless.

>Rome was never a real democracy
STOP THE FUCKING PRESSED RIGHT FUCKING KNOW

they made cato old
brutus was a friggin nobody

Why didn't the guy who played older Octavian go on to do more stuff? he was pretty good but he hasn't done anything since 2008

You don't need a reason to kill Gauls.

Cicero was a pussy, but a pretty based Roman historian and philosopher.

Used to read a lot of his stuff

Cicero > Cato

>Cicero
>Historian

polly walker was the star of the show
what a babe

It's important to remember that Rome had been unstable for decades at that point and the senators were constantly conspiring against each other for personal gain. Caesar was trying to get things stabilized. Unfortunately he kind of turned into a dick towards the end and paid the price.

I unironically enjoyed adult Octavian's performance as well. The guy pulled off icy menace pretty well.

Everyone in rome was a dick. Caesar's downfall was sparing all his enemies.

Caesar didn't get killed for being a tyrant, there's no doubt he wanted to be dictator for life, but he wasn't really a tyrant when you look at Sulla. He got killed he was curbing the power of the nobility and giving power to the people.
There's a reason he wasn't killed in the streets, but was killed in the senate house.

His mistake was insulting the senate. It's one thing to consolidate power, but he took it too far by naming himself dictator for life (technically """voted""). Augustus was successful because he instead worked very carefully to maintain the prestige of the senators, actually giving them more honors and special roles in parades etc. And all the while, Augustus only gave himself republican titles. He was of course also a tyrant, but smarter about it.

Because Rome is character assassination: the show. Augustus was all about making Rome virtuous and noble again to the point that he banished his own daughter for being a massive slut, and yet in the show he's as much of a degenerate as everyone else.

Cato was a fool. Cicero was always well respected

I'm still mad they pussified Cato. Guy was a fucking legend. When he stabbed himself in real life his surgeon found him and sewed him back up, when he regained consciousness he got mad that his men didn't realise he wanted to die and ripped his stomach back open. Here he was just an old guy that died.

the word plebeian gets thrown around a ton but now it finally fits you FUCKING PLEB

>pulled off icy menace pretty well
he just seemed like an average gay guy

Cast the remake.

Maecenas
