Caesar in Gaul - Roman History DOCUMENTARY

In our animated historical documentary on the Gallic War and Gaius Julius Caesar, we will cover the war between the Romans and the Celts in modern France, and the battles of Bibracte, Vosges, Axona, Sabis, Gergovia, Alesia, alongside Caesars invasions of Britain and Germany. In these battles, Caesar and his legionaries fought against Helvetii led by Divico, Suebi led by Ariovistus, Belgae led by Galba, Nervii led by Boduognatus, Britons led by Cassivellaunus, Eburones led by Ambiorix and Arverni led by Vercingetorix.

This Caesar guy seems really talented. He should consider going into politics back home

[BloodyKnives]

Imagine being able to talk to one of Ceasars veterans and hear about everything they went thru... So many amazing stories lost forever in history.

It's crazy how a youtube channel overtakes the history channel in viewership while showing actual history.

When in doubt, build a wall.

- Julius Caesar, 50 BC

"Caesar slaughtered 40, 000 locals and replenished his supplies"
I didn't realise the Roman army ran on souls.

Helpless situation:
Caesar: we'll build a bridge/fort/boats/ramps/seige equipment/wall/ almost instantly.
There, that will solve it.

"Caesar quickly built a bridge."
-- Roman history in a nutshell.

* *_mild discontent and worry about enemy armies_*
Caesar: “That’s okay, those that do not wish to fight do not have to.”
* *_suppressed feelings of relief_*
Caesar: “I guess it’s just going to be me and the 10th legion. They never turn down a chance to fight defending our home and the Republic, as all true Sons of Rome do.”
**Other Legions start charging towards barbarians*

The glass breaking sound is so satisfying

[YeahYeahb-tch]

His victory at Alesia can’t even be believed. They had him encircled and he proved again that he would do ANYTHING to protect his men and win. This episode was simply amazing. I love your channel

[ibha-xhnn]

"Who are we fighting against now?" every Roman soldiers under Julius Caesar.

[rogerhwerner]

Over 2, 000 years later and Caesar's tactics in the Gaulic conflicts are still studied and the seige of Alesia remarkable.Looking at a video however one cannot truly comprehend the level of engineering and skill used by Rome. I've seen their walls, seige ramps, and aqueducts. That these were built with human and animal power aided with few mechanical tools makes them all the more amazing. Then there was sheer Roman bravery, tenacity, endurance, and utter ruthlessness. Their still standing edifices whould not be missed by anyone with an interest in history.

[Razzy]

One factor that doesn''t get talked about enough in these wars is that Rome had a standing army and reserve system while the tribal coalitions they fought had to be summoned from the region's tribes. The warriors of these tribes also often had to worry about their farms back home while the legionnaires did not.

Vercengetorix: It’s over Caesar I have the high ground!
Caesar: You underestimate my imperium!

[lebawsski]

This high quality production is worthy to be on the History Channel, BBC or any other big TV Station known for its Documentary.

[dmarks]

Caesar, such a great battlefield commander. He always figured out a way to defeat enemies in a very disadvantaged position. The tens of thousands of Gauls, Germans could not kill him. But it only took a handful of politicians to cause him death.

"Ah, shit. Here we go again..." Every Roman legionary under Cesar.

[rdatta]

This video is a brilliant example of how video, great production, presentation and delivery can make history come alive. Imagine if we taught history this way in schools and other forums. This is brilliantly done. Great job of putting the focus on the early part of the campaigns before Caesar faced off against Vercongetarix!
