@Kings and Generals I have done some with another person, we ended up restoring the glorious Roman Empire! Pity they don’t have dinosaurs...
Wonder what would have happened if Sparticus escaped from Italy and tried to find a place to settle in as King of his own Nation
They just took Spartacus off Netflix 😤😢
man i was waiting for this! great job

@TheGreaterGood80 I still watch B&S at least once a year, I love that series. I agree on the movies though, would love to see a long, even 3 part, epic of the whole affair.
It's been over 2000 years and we're still idolizing Spartacus and his rebellion. So strong was what his rebellion symbolized: fighting for freedom in the face of overwhelming odds and oppression, that we'll probably still be telling his story 2000 years from now. A group of slaves, immortalized by history. There's so few stories that are as epic.
Quite likely, he could have forced huge change on Rome with just 1 change. If they'd only killed cruel slave owners, Rome might have been forced to change their treatment of slaves. But they killed all the rich men they encountered, so Rome was able to see them as just bloodthirsty rebels, rather than people who were mistreated
@@kharnthebetrayer8251 It could be, that that's exactly what they did, but the numbers they killed were a result of how widespread the cruelty was. To this day, we have only vague accounts of how cruel the Romans actually were. We romanticize their achievements in literature, architecture and other things, but we tend to gloss over that it was slave labor that REALLY powered that empire. Spartacus is proof that there was resistance to that, and it was crushed with brutal torture and public executions. We know that happened. That''s part of the romantic story. So what about the rest of it? What was the rest of the Empire like? Historians are vague on that. We just do not know. History is violent, and cruel, beyond what we in the sheltered 21st century can even imagine.
@@ktvindicare I do remember hearing somewhere that they killed everyone who had slaves, regardless of treatment. I think it was Lindybeige but not certain. And there was surely some who treated slaves well, or at least better than others. So if Spartacus and the Slaves had been thinking long term (which is understandable why they likely didnt) They could have found the ones that treated slaves decently, and left them alone. With how Stubborn Rone was, probably wouldn't have made a huge impact, but it's certainly possible that some kind of slave treatment reform could have happened because of the rebellions
Hero
Spartacus was the real Achilles
Spartacus is without question one of the most badass people in history, imagine leading an army of 100,000 plus with that many overwhelming victories, with no supply lines, no equipment, compromised of slaves who spoke different languages and were united only by their hatred of Rome. That's some next level G shit right there.

It is done. Your lives are your own. Forge your own path, or join with us, and together we shall see Rome tremble.
SPARTACUS!!
We are all Gods this night! And the Roman's, shall feel our Wrath!👍
Spartacus! Spartacus! Spartacus!
Split heavens with the sound of his name! Let it carry to Crassus and Pompey, as distant thunder promising storm and blood. Let all those who are able, prepare to make final stand against Rome. And this I promise you: we will live free, or join our brothers in Death! One of my favorite quotes from the show.
Was this Shakespeare or did Spartacus have scribes writing down these soundbites?
10:15 "Crassus was no stranger to warfare" Parthian: Doubt
Underrated comment ^^
To be fair, Crassus didn't deal with much light cavalry before facing off against the Parthians - then again, he was more of an administrator than a fighter...
Lol
He wasn’t a stranger but a coward. Dude legit didn’t even have the balls to get off his horse to face people he deemed inferior. But dam really one of the people I was happy got a brutal death in the end. Not to sentimentalize historical figures I never met, but if this history is true than I feel for Spartacus to a certain degree.
At Carrhae Crassus was 62 and had not lead an army for 18 years. Even good generals get old.
Some slave: *I’m Spartacus!* Slave 2: *I’m Spartacus!* Slave 3: He’s Spartacus.
YOU'RE SPARTACUS
It turned out he was Alpharius
Maybe the real Spartacus was the one we made along the way.
Spartacus: "I'm Spartacus!" Slave 2: "I'm Spartacus!" Spartacus: "That's right [pointing at Slave 2]! He's Spartacus!"
Slave 3 is Peter Griffin snitching and ending a entire revolt lol

The DORUK Also Rome: But then our gladiators wouldn’t be so entertaining!!
@Crimson SPARTACUS WAS A DOCTORE HE TRAINED THE GLADIATORS HE WAS NOT A COMMON SLAVE THIS IS WHY THEY FOLOWED HIM!!!!
This makes me wonder. Had Spartacus lived during the Pricipate period where Rome was ruled by Emperors who had their Praetorian Guards stationed in Italy. Would Rome's most elite troops be able to put down a strong slave uprising led by Spartacus?
@@bobifetski bulgarians are not thracians
@@alexvlaxos6620 they are but no one wants to admite it for they must be destroyed as a nation and for this they must not have a heritage.
It’s interesting to see that Crassus was so cautious in dealing with Spartacus but was so bold as to be foolhardy when picking a fight with the Parthians.
I believe it's written he was jealous of other's politician's military successes and that was his motivating factor.
@@ARandomGuy24 It is just interesting how radical the transformation of tactics was. He gave a bunch of slaves more caution than an empire which rivaled Rome in size and military might. What impatience does to an MF, I guess. And it suggests to me that he never had a very good grasp of tactics to begin with, either.
@@samiamrg7 I think as this vid implied the dude was bitter over the general who came from the North mopping up fleeing slaves and claiming he ended the rebellion when Crassus did the actual battle. If he was as obsessed with legacy and was that unhappy about the way people perceived the slave rebellion to have ended it may make sense why he went out of his way for "glory" to the point of arrogance. It seems like a logical theory judging from what was valued by Roman society at the time.
@@ARandomGuy24 that dude was pompey.... No wonder they hate each other.....
Those freaking pirates could've been immortalized in history, instead they chose a few pieces of gold :/
Was just thinking that. Fuccck lol
Fate decided not them
If only they had met Captain Jack Sparrow
seems like we are missing information on it though. I highly doubt spartacus had the cunning and tactics to defeat multiple consular armies, but then get scammed by pirates.

@@kasinokaiser1319 tell that to the Eastern Roman Empire
@@Sandderad someone seems to be salty over a rebellion that happened more then 2000 year's ago
Crassus was killed years later at the Battle of Carrhae which is considered to be the worst defeat the Roman Republic experienced, Crassus after the battle was decapitated and had molten gold poured down his throat.
I disagree. The Battle of Cannae was MUCH worse.
In the Battle of Carrhae Rome lost more men then in the Battle of Cannae against a much smaller force that they should have beaten with few casualties
The Bactrian a belt-and-suspenders approach to killing a leader
Rick Quicker actually Crassus lost over half of his force which while the Parthians lost very minimal men and is still regarded by historians as the worst defeat the Roman Republic suffered as they lost more men at Carrhae (while having more men in their army then they did at sentium) the Sentium to a much smaller force
Rick Quicker also dude we are talking about a single battle not an entire campaign lol read the question more carefully next time
The entire Apennine became the "colosseum" for these Gladiator slaves to hunt or being hunted - yet this time they no longer fought for entertaining the audiences, but for FREEDOM！ Awesome animation, Kings and Generals. Your prolific works always impressed me, along with other series such as History Marche, Epic History, Baz Battles, Flash Point History...etc
Thanks for watching!
They fought for their bloodthirst for civilian lives.
@@Sandderad If anyone were to make you fight in the Colosseum, putting your life on the line wouldn't have you done the same You can't define reality in terms of good or evil. Good and Evil are storytelling tools and have nothing to do with reality
The Starz Spartacus series was a lot more historically accurate than I assumed. 😳
Except when Cracis marched toward Rome and got a glimpse of the city before meeting the Roman army and their doom. In reality he was far further south
Most of it is filler since only so much is known
Now I have to rewatch the entire spartacus series for the 10th! time again..damn.
For the amount of drama shown in the STARZ TV show, it was surprisingly historically accurate.
The sex scenes aren't that bad either.
Yep. Most of the "issues" were just the writers needing to condense history. Still wish we had gotten the follow up Caesar series...

Apart from the obvious changes that this rebellion brought to the Roman republic , It would be interesting to know at what extend this rebellion affected the Romans' perspective upon gladiators' recruit and training. Considering that only 70 or less gladiators managed to establish a rebellion by winning easily the first roman militia forces , we could assume that their fighting training was on a high level . Also , It is possible that most of the gladiators on this period had a battle experience as former soldiers who had been captured by the Romans during several wars. According to reliable historical sources and archaeological foundings , during the imperial period the gladiators were an elite class inside the slaves , gaining a great amount of money for their games in the arenas and being something like our nowadays football stars. Evenmore , It is known that the gladiatorial games during the imperial period had not a lethal purpose . In fact , only a 10% of the fighters were killed because of severe wounds and the dead gladiator's owner was receiving a compensation from the state for his loss . To all these above mentioned add the fact that gladiators served as special units in Roman army during this period in several occasions , epsecially on rebellions in the empire as an effective force in guerilla type warfare in exchange of land , political rights , even their freedom . So , these "military gladiators" were receiving an extra training of fighting to be capable in killing their opponents rather than just causing wounds to them as they did in the games . Taking all these into mind , we can safely assumed that this rebellion possibly changed once and for all the way that Romans were recruiting and training slaves to become gladiators . What is almost certain is that this rebellion changed the status of slavery in Roman society , forcing Romans to treat to their slaves with more care and interesting due to the fear of a new brutal rebellion. The vast numbers of slaves , eager to follow Spartacus to freedom , proves that leaving with their masters was unbearable. On the other hand , no major slave rebellion is mentioned in Roman history after this one and that could not be a result of fear but of social changes .
Bull crap. Name the “social changes”. The Romans didn’t do crap and still had slaves! It powered their empire. Maybe no rebellion occurred cause the slaves had no chance at one again. The Romans tightened the screws to put it simply

Glory to Spartacus! Freedom is priceless
Aye mate.
I just started re-watching Spartacus yesterday. So this video is well received 😎
I don’t think I’ve ever grown to admire a character as much as I have grown to admire Spartacus. Take a minute to ponder on the enormous legacy he left behind. A man who lived more than 2000 years ago and is still talked about. He refused to be treated in a manner akin to that of an animal; he believed that all human beings are worthy of respect, and that even slaves should be treated with kindness and compassion; had the Romans or any fortunate enough a human who was a master treated their subordinates with due respect, many wars would have been prevented. I hold to high regard his unwavering rejection of inhumane treatment and the shedding of blood for mere entertainment. Wherever you are right now Spartacus, rest assured your legacy still lives and that you are not lost down the memory lane 💙 - a fellow free soul 2000+ years later.
I agree with your words, and it sure sounds nice. But the brutal reality is different than what we'd like. The rebels were all killed, with thousands of them crucified. Spartacus is remembered because his revolt was so effective for so long, and sadly... for how brutally it ended. The aftermath which is the fall of the Republic is some sweet irony though.
That is awesome. Well done. Appreciate what you wrote here.

I absolutely love the mosaic background style of these series. It could be used more often when doing Roman history videos. Great improvement in quality since 1 year I´m following this channel
Thanks!
Thanks for watching the Sertorius video and the other 2 Servile War videos also has the same style, check them if you haven't yet!
Spartacus TV SERIES is one of the best I've seen. And they try to be historically accurate, which makes it even more appealing
Lolz I was rooting for Spartacus at the end.
Damn, I really had no idea Spartacus lasted for 3 years and had such a huge army. What a stud

I know I’ve said this before but I have to say it again. Y’all do a fantastic job with the music, I think it’s one of the things that makes Kings and Generals stand out in my mind amongst the other history channels on KZhead that cover similar content.
This is the best explanation of the Triumvirate I've ever seen or read. Nice job with the conclusion here and how you guys threaded the connections. I hadn't fully connected the 3rd Servile war to the politics and tales of Caesar, or it's domino like influence on the fall of the Republic. Thanks.

Love it. Also love the possibility that the idea of Spartacus being Thracian penned from his fighting type - The Thracian, and the man is still a massive mystery.
In sources he is described as being a Murmillo (fish man) gladiator not Thraex (Thracian) gladiator. He was from Thrace yet he was called "Spartacus" since he wasn't fighting as a Thraex calling him something like Thracius was not fitting. Gadiators were specialised according to their bodytype, weight, artistic and military background. So Murmillos were generaly heavier then most other types. Thraex and Secutor were lighter with smaller shields (ofcourse Thraex with the identical Thracian curved sword). Murmillo generaly fought against Thraex or an other Murmillo or some times Hoplomacus (the most heavily fitted spear wielding, Greek Hoplite mimicing one). Secutor fought against Retiarius (fish net and trident wielding one).
Was that Plutarch?
One can only imagine what would have happened if those fucking Pirates held true to their word. And Spartacus killing his horse was fucking badass O,o

Music and storytelling perfect. Thanks a lot!
Love the topic of the Servile Wars! Spartacus was quite the heroic figure! Amazingly, he defeated consular armies 3 times! If he'd have turned northward at that point, history as we know it might be radically different.

As Voltaire called it: "a just war, indeed the only just war in history."

@@historian252 Fair enough. It is a subjective opinion, of course.
I think people might be attributing nobler motives to Spartacus than he actually had. He committed numerous atrocities himself and there's not much evidence his objective was the end slavery entirely.

Spartacus is probably the only world wide famous thing to come out from Bulgaria in ancient times but for some reason we never talk about him here. Seriously his story is truly epic.
Could it be because records are unsure whether he was Thracian or just fought in a style called something alike Thracian (can't remember). His past is pretty much unknown.

@@alketvedra3387 When I say "Bulgaria" I mean the people who live in Bulgaria today, not the Bulgars who are just a part of the modern Bulgarian population. I don't understand why you think Bulgars committed industrial scale genocide when they came to the Balkans. They wouldn't have been able to do it even if they wanted to. The more likely case is that they mixed with the local population just like how the southern Slavs assimilated the Bulgars.
The Total War Rome 2 music in the background is a very nice touch.
I like the new artwork style. Good shit dude
Thanks for watching! Sertorioud video and other two Servile Wars videos have the same style, check them if you haven't
💜 Finally Spartacus omg. I once asked about this in a comment and You said its coming. I was in My doubts truth to be told. I have read books about him and I think He was a really genius and fascinating leader. Thank You fare creating this and listening to viewers. :) :)

Love this one! Kings & Generals is my favorite new channel. Y'all are killin it 👍
Good Stuff Bro! ⚔️
Lets train the slaves to become killing machines! How could this go wrong lol? edit: i just drew a cute squirrel if anyone wants to check it out :3 (or dont, its pretty mediocre lmao)
And yet how often this happens in history...
ArtWithDatDude Official can u draw spartacus?
zarni000 i didnt mean spartacus in specific, just the concept of training someone that you treat like shit to kill is not the smartest thing to do
@@EthGemsnStuff pay attention to the video, those who HAD MILITARY background were sent to gladiator schools. Most already knew how to fight.
@@EthGemsnStuff while it could have been a risk, the gladiators were not normally poorly treated. They were highly priced slaves kind of like how a racehorse is treated today. I'm not comparing animal ownership with slavery.
