Before the CIA: Rome’s Hidden Military Intelligence System

Описание: Rome conquered the ancient world with legions, but its true power operated in silence.

Long before modern intelligence agencies existed, the Roman Empire built one of history’s most advanced and ruthless intelligence networks. From covert scouts and secret informants to internal surveillance and political espionage, Rome mastered the art of information warfare.

In this episode of Spycraft Chronicles, we uncover the hidden world of Roman military intelligence—how spies shaped wars, controlled provinces, eliminated rivals, and protected emperors from unseen threats.

You’ll discover the secret roles of Roman intelligence units, how information flowed across the empire, and why Rome’s intelligence system was both its greatest strength and its ultimate weakness.

This is not a history lesson. This is the shadow war that built an empire.
