Ausstrahlung: Mai 08, 2022

Kings and Generals' historical animated documentary series on the history of Rome continues with an episode of the post-Caesar Civil Wars, as we look at what happened after the initial shock of Caesar's assassination. This episode will continue with the aftermath of the battle of Mutina, as Octavian, Antony, and Lepidus created a triumvirate, taking over Rome, which signaled to Brutus and Cassius, that there will be another civil war. The latter collected their legions and started building their base of operations, leading to the battles of Xanthos and Rhodes, and that, in turn lead to the battle of Philippi that would decide the fate of the war between the Caesareans and Pompeians.
