1b. Marius vs. Sulla

Marius and Sulla compete in a contest of ‘who can terrify Rome the most’. All concept of restraint, pity and mercy are forgotten. In this civil war between two Roman titans, it is the Roman people themselves who are made to bleed. Amidst all the chaos and bloodshed, a young Julius Caesar makes his entrance onto the stage of history in dramatic fashion.

 

Correction: At one point I mistakenly say Caesar’s uncle and cousin’s heads were mounted on the Rostra. This is only true of young Marius (cousin of Caesar), not the elder Marius (Caesar’s uncle).
