-Opening words from Roman Senator giving the commencement address at Caesar's funeral, 44 B.C.E.
@Anacronian
Julius Caesar: "If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine"
@NessJr
"Cicero made a long speech" Some things never change
@matthewwallack601
“Cicero made a long speech.” Sounds right.
@ThePointlessBox_
“We did it brutus, we saved the republic” “What now” “Dunno, didnt think we’d make it this far”
@N0TYALC
My favorite thing about Caesar is how his enemies thought of him. They called him a traitor, a liar, and a tyrant. They even assassinated him in broad daylight. Yet even among those that hated him the most, the unanimous consensus is that he was a genius.
@attilakatona-bugner1140
Even when he was dead, he still kept winning. What a madlad
@jack_corvinus
Man this Octavius guy sure sounds like an inconsequential figure in this whole story, I bet we’ll never hear about him again.
@hitrapperandartistdababy
I gotta give it to Anthony, he may not be the smartest guy but he completely outplayed all his enemies with that speech.
@cartmann94
Marc Anthony: Remember when I said I would honor Caesar's murderers? Brutus: Yes, I did! Marc Anthony: I LIED! Unleashes the Roman mob onto them
@TheJaviferrol
Caesar last clause of his will: "Ask Tribune Aquila if he's ok with all of the above"
@robertshein7744
The really sad thing about this is that so few ancient civilizations recorded their history in the way the Romans did, there can be few series like this one
@mathiashundstad8873
Bye bye little red square. It’s been quite a journey, I’ll miss the little thing
@Chris_seh
We did it Cassius! We've saved the republic! Lepidus, Anthony, Octavian: Allow us to introduce ourselves.
@misterpayah7723
Antony may have been an idiot on multiple occasions, but how quickly and strategically he acted to safeguard Caesar's bloc and play the crowd to obtain popular support is masterful. I think he should be remembered for this moment in particular, above most others.
@Jrel777
Step 1: conspiracy step 2: murder Caesar step 3: ???????? step 4: profit
@GeraltofRizziaa
This is the most “I didn’t think we’d get this far” moment in history.
@michaelrichardson9458
I find it incredible that these guys failed to see the carnage that killing caesar would create.
@megashark0305
Cassius: we did it guys, we saved the city. Marc Antony: HE WAS A CONSUL OF ROME!!
