The March of History: Julius Caesar

73: The Rain in Spain: Caesar's Luck


Listen Later

When monsoon rains hit Northeastern Spain, the Sicoris River floods, obliterating both of Julius Caesar's bridges. Now stranded in a narrow strip of land between two flooded rivers, Caesar soon runs out of food and his troops begin to starve. Finding himself in an increasingly desperate situation, Caesar must find a way to regain access to the Eastern bank of the river or else the war will be lost. Meanwhile, Decimus Brutus fights a naval battle at Massilia against Ahenobarbus and the Massiliotes. Stay tuned at the end for a special segment on Cicero and the cosmos.
