It was because of Gaio Mario

yeah thatd be awesome

That revolutionized the army and also improved the tactics

too bad hanniabl was way before

@Koningin Van Italië it's not that Historically correct but it's a cool film

its still apart of my historical collection

Almost no film is historically correct

Rome is pretty good tho

watch the tv show

13!

Btw did Rome ever borrow the phalanx technic used by Macadon

Yes

yeah the incorporated it and modified it

But adapted to the Roman scutum

Scutum is the shield

this is more accurate than gladiator

BTW now I'm studying gladiators, they are actually pretty cool

Did you know that there were woman gladiators aswell?

@Mtaddict in that film ..the boots that has the soles of a modern boot was invented..laying there in one scene

its a tv show

but yeh mistakes happen all the time on set

@Koningin Van Italië that's cool...I just more was into the Greek side

Well i can tell you something about that aswell

In fact the Roman gladiator traditions is splitter in 2: west and east

have you guys seen spartacus the show

Alexander the great is my favorite and Achilles

is not realistic but fun asf to watch

In the west part of the empire gladiator often represented wars or soldiers, this can be seen in their Graves

While in the east they mostly represented myths and the epic litterature

@Mtaddict yes..my aunt was telling my mom about it so I check it

LOL You aunt saw it damn

@Magneto ✌ and other fun fact. There is a recorder match between 2 female gladiators called respectively "Amazone(Amazon) and Achillia(female Achille)"

@Mtaddict yeah..I kinda see it as the Rome version of GOT

naaah its not grounded at all to be GOT

Watch Rome TV Show its actually what hnelped GOT get made

is really good

@Koningin Van Italië that sounds cool...the Amazon's also amazed me especially the myths circling around them especially the Queen of them whom achillis had to take her belt

Amazon's were the top of Roman erotic litterature and culture

lmao

@Mtaddict I will actually check it out..it looks cool In the link u showed already
