Pompey the Great - Statesman and General of the Roman Republic

Описание: Did you know that Pompey the Great defeated the Cilician Pirates in under a year? This video is all about the fascinating Roman general and statesman Pompey the Great.

Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus – better known as Pompey the Great – lived between 106 and 48 BCE and was one of the greatest generals and statesmen of the late Roman Republic. His accomplishments are sometimes overshadowed by his younger contemporary Julius Caesar but, in his time, Pompey was far more popular – at least initially – and much more powerful. His assassination in Egypt at the end of his civil war with Caesar was a bad end to an illustrious life and has sometimes encouraged the view that Pompey was a “famous loser” but this interpretation fails to take into account his many impressive achievements and brilliant military strategies.
