Caesar's worst enemy - basic foodstuffs! And his greatest ally - construction materials!
@theeNappy
A Civil War where 2 generals are both racing to build a wall the fastest? That is THE MOST ROMAN THING I HAVE EVER READ.
@MrSaywutnow
"The enemy would have won today if they were commanded by a winner." Even in the face of disaster, Caesar was capable of some truly sick burns.
@imgoingforawalk1693
I love that Caesar had to explain to Bibilus's negotiator what negotiations were.
@tomaszskowronski1406
19:25 "Cato didn't agree with Cicero's reasoning, but respected his decision" meanwhile in the video "Thats dumb. You're dumb" You're probably closer to the truth than the chronicles.

"When in doubt, build a wall" - Gaius Julius Caesar
@Observer29830
Because of you, I cannot imagine Caesar to look like anything other than a red square.
@revelaitons3959
Caesar: refuses to let us come to shore to get supplies Bibulus: "I have decided that I want to die."
@fidget0227
“Please stop!” “In exchange for what?” “Wha?” “What will you give me if I do that?” “...nothing.” “Then... what is your purpose?” “Wha?” “Get outa here!” dies No comedy like history in hindsight.
@holdinmcgroin8639
"The enemy would've won today, if they had been commanded by a winner" Damn that's harsh criticism against Pompey.
@Nipah.Auauau
That battle was like 2 pro RTS players trying to out-meta each other to death. Try to "tron-bike" each other with walls only to end up building them 30km long, way outside of their own bases. Building forts inside of forts as a surprise tactic. Countering the enemy trying to starve you to death by making them dehydrate to death.
@StefanMilo
That negotiation scene lol. Priceless! WHA!?
@scharb
10:25 "attempted to goad Pompey into attacking" legions start wiggling/dancing
@simonpeter5032
Pompey: I'll build MY OWN wall! Caesar: The wall just got ten feet higher.
@Frosty14748
Bibilus wasn't surrounded by "Yes" men, he was surrounded by "What?" men.
@feartheghus
The bibilus achievement is like those video game achievements you get that show off to everyone who looks at your profile that you died 100 times in the first mission on easy mode before winning it.
@MrDrRalph
Jesus the fact that Caesar was able to use the calendar as a benefit just shows how much of a genius he was
@TheHylianBatman
I have officially watched every single Historia Civilis video to date, and I have to say, I am continually amazed, not just at the level of detail and dedication put into every single video, but the surprising amount of humor and personality a bunch of faceless squares can convey. Whoever you are, sir, you are extremely talented and knowledgeable, and I hope to continue to support you as long as I can. Once I get a steady income, bet on me becoming a Patron. Unfortunate that I don't have the money now, but just wait. This video took me by surprise. The saga of Bibulus, which I've seen built up for weeks, ending with him just... dropping dead, Cicero, one of the greatest Romans, being assassinated seemingly out of nowhere... they're truly cinematic-proportion twists. Thank you for educating me on the ancient and the modern world, and here's to whatever's coming next! Ave Historia Civilis!
@davidhoran7116
The fact that the pompeian fort has a set of walls within the walls, while the fort was itself within a wall, opposing another wall- god damn.
