Belisarius - The Last Great Roman General

Flavius Belisarius, often revered as the greatest general of the Byzantine Empire, was a central figure in the military history of late antiquity. Born around 500 AD, Belisarius served under Emperor Justinian I and gained fame for his impressive military campaigns, which sought to restore Byzantine control over territories lost from the former Roman Empire. Known as "the last Roman," Belisarius played a crucial role in the reconquest of Italy, North Africa, and parts of the Iberian Peninsula, demonstrating exceptional strategic and tactical skills that cemented his reputation as one of history's greatest military leaders.

Dude deserves his own big budget movie

This is a prime example as to why you don't put in overtime and never leave a two-week notice.

This documentary was a fascinating look into the life of the last great Roman general! The way it highlighted his strategic brilliance and leadership during such a pivotal time in history really brought the story to life. Amazing production and storytelling! A must-watch for any history buff.

If he had achieved historical immortality, he might have been remembered as long as Alexander and Napoleon

This is why I love this channel. I'm always learning something new. Before this video I had never heard of General Belisarius but now I'm hoping they make an entire movie about him. Such a tragic ending for such a great man.

''This too, can I bear. I still Am Belisarius!'' Doesn't this moment perfectly capture the essence of stoicism?

[zulubeatz]

I cannot understand why this is the first time I have heard of this incredible leader. He seems to have shown several strategies I have heard of before. I will definitely do some more research on him.

A case of "no good deed goes unpunished".

He betrayed got betrayed from like it's even Steven

Guys, please. Strategos, and later Basileus Nikephoros II, George Maniakes, Narses, Alexios Philanthropenos are only some of the great Generals and patriots the Eastern Roman Empire featured. The great Strategos, terror of the unbelievers John Kourkouas, had been granted the nickname "New Trajan" for his valor. Honor and Glory!

[TheVideoNorm]

The painting is weak conjecture. Belisarius is believed to have retired back to his estate to live out his final days.

[viorelpiscanu]

Thanks a lot! In my oppinion nothing last If You want to built ( rebuilt) an Empire with military actions! This is another lesson from that past time ... Even Belizarie succed to restore for Justinianus former Roman Empire ... Very short lived...

[rickjames]

I thought he was betrayed and killed after dealing with the Huns but I guess he died a beggar which is even worse.
