History RE-Summarized: The Roman Republic!

A new video approaches! This is a compiled and remastered version of my histories of the Republic, the Punic Wars, and Caesar. All of the visuals & maps have been upgraded, and there are new historical notes, addenda, and clarifications/corrections. My goal was to create the definitive way to revisit my older videos on the subject

This is a bit of an experiment, but if you're interested in seeing more of these, please let me know! There are tons of other loose miniseries we can make into RE-Summarized episodes — Rome, Greece, China, India, and others. I had a lot of fun with this, and I'd be happy to make more of them.

History RE-Summarized: The Roman Republic!

Comments

Valid points! I'd chalk it up to the author being Roman and having an interest in Scipio looking good. As I allude to in the video itself, it is also entirely possible that the conversation was wholly invented afterward for dramatic effect. -B

What? Hannibal let Scipio get away with complaining that Hannibal brought an army? If anything, Hannibal brought an army home, an army that is no longer in Italy. Scipio should feel flattered most sincerely, and be grateful. There must have been something else going on, that Hannibal couldn't just point these things out to Scipio.

This was amazing. I loved it!

Melinda Alvey-Blackwelder

I enjoyed the video, although, to improve, maybe in future projects like this, you could rewrite more of the script, because, although the video is informative, it is a bit less engaging to people who have watched the previous videos.

Really enjoyed it, would like to see the same format for other groups of related videos. Typo at 30:55 :-( Cleopatra's speech bubble says "So sure, Friday sonds good"

Hugh Fisher

You know, it most certainly could qualify him, though it might be a tad overkill to go back to Caesar *again* in the near future. :D maybe some day

Question: Caesar, as you said in your video, wrote extensively during his campaign in Gaul. Does that qualify him in the History-Makers category, or is there more involved?

Eric Stovall

I like this idea and agree with NEON725 of this being a handy go-to video for all your Roman Republic questions. I wouldn't mind seeing this in the history of China

I really liked this longer, more comprehensive format. Particularly, it serves as a jumping off point to other videos that go into the individual events in more detail.

This is perfect I have an alevel exam on this in two weeks!! Thank you Blue!

I’m always down for more Roman history!
