Julius Caesars Gallic Wars

The Commentaries on the Gallic Wars are of Caesar 's own accounts of the various wars that he had fought after he had become consul in Rome through violence and much bribery . On the historical context , much of the political skill and savvy Caesar displayed in the battle field sought to define the boundaries of races and culture in Northern Europe and it even began the use of Caesar as a title after his death when those who ruled without a crown became known as Caesars . The Roman military is highlighted together with

social history prevalent during that time such as driving all the Germans out of Gaul and showing them the might of Rome . Britain 's invasion twice also proved to be a significant move for Caesar , for after this hostile act , his conquests pushed his political prospects for public service . His famous words Veni , vidi , vici ( I came , I saw , I conquered ) summed up his report to the Roman Senate after his victory in Northwest Turkey . He always struggled against the Senate (for taking their position as merely advisory instead of listening to their opinions ) and Pompey (who grew jealous of Caesar 's victories and allied himself with Caesar 's enemies and his continuous popularity with the citizens of Rome are skillfully described in the Civil Wars . Caesar explored the general view of the Roman troops which was their efficiency in battle and emphasized war and society in Republican Rome as characterized by their motivations in battle (experiencing victory in the field ) and the lavish displays of wealth that superseded character building in the Roman elite , as shown by Caesar 's marriage to Calpurnia , a daughter of a nobleman and Pompey 's marriage to Caesar 's daughter (Julia Wiseman , 1985
