Caesar, Pompey, Crassus: The First Trium...

Gary Arndt | Glassbox Media
About this episode

In the year 60 BC, a very unlikely alliance was formed between three of Rome’s most powerful men. 

Gaius Julius Caesar, Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, and Marcus Licinius Crassus agreed to put aside their differences for mutual gain. 

For many years the alliance worked, and the three men were able to run the Roman Republic….until it eventually fell apart.
