Caesar united with Pompey and Crassus to govern the Romans.
Leading the Roman armies many years, Caesar conquered
territory in Britain, Gaul, and Spain.
Pompey, who controlled the government, became jealous of
Caesar's victories and ordered Caesar to break up the army. But
the soldiers respected and trusted Caesar, and instead of
dispersing, they followed him across the Rubicon River to capture
the city of Rome in 49 b.c.
While controlling the government, Pompey became jealous of
Caesar’s victories and demanded that Caesar break up the army.
In 49 B.C., Caesar’s army refused to disperse, and followed him
across the Rubicon River on a mission to capture the city of Rome.
Five years of civil war followed. Caesar defeated Pompey's forces
in Spain, North Africa, and Asia Minor. One of Caesar's famous
victories occurred at the battle of Zela, now in Turkey. Caesar's
message to Rome was ``Veni, Vidi, Vici'' (``I came, I saw, I
conquered''). Caesar spent some time in Egypt, where he first met
the fascinating Queen Cleopatra.
Five years of civil war came to pass. Finally, Caesar defeated
Pompey’s forces in Spain, North Africa, and Asia Minor. After one
of Caesar’s illustrious victories, (the battle of Zela), his message to
Rome was, ``Veni, Vidi, Vici'' (``I came, I saw, I conquered''). Soon
after, Caesar spent time in Egypt, where he first met the
magnificent Queen Cleopatra.
By 45 b.c., Caesar controlled a vast territory that later was the
Roman Empire. The Roman government made Caesar dictator.
