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

The Roman Republic is a fascinating story all on its own, but it also serves as an excellent object lesson in civics. This video is a Remastered, Definitive Edition of three previous videos from this channel — History Summarized: "The Roman Republic", "The Punic Wars", and "Julius Caesar and the Fall of The Republic". This video combines them all into one narrative, fully upgrades all of the visuals, and adds extra historical notes and clarifications along the way. Please let me know if you enjoyed this, and are interested in more videos like this. There are many historical miniseries on this channel that would fit neatly into a compilation like this, and I'd be thrilled to make them! SOURCES & Further Reading: Virgil's "Aeneid", Polybius' "Histories", Livy's "Ab Urbe Condita" Plutarch's "Parallel Lives", Caesar's "De Bello Gallico", "SPQR" by Mary Beard, "Rome: A History in Seven Sackings" by Matt Kneale, "Rubicon" by Tom Holland, "The Storm Before the Storm" by Mike Duncan, (and also my degree in Classical Studies). Note for 14:15 — I mention Livy's History Of Rome ("Ab Urbe Condita") by name, but made the lizard-brain mistake of showing Polybius instead. Poor Livy, first 75% of his work is lost, and now this.
