The last person and his siblings prove that nepotism gets you started but your skills and talents will unltimately decide where you go. If they were simply put in a position thanks to their father they would stay in that position and not rise at all or even lose the position entirely. Respect to all these men.

I personally think Decimus' career is the most impressive. Going from Garrison Guard to Primus Pillus without any connections (i assume at least) just by pure skill and determination is quite the achivement, while the others had some form of higher connection or already had established family esteem. What a beast

Love hearing stories of lowborns climbing to the peak of society. Centurions honestly in my opinion are way cooler than any emperor or general. Great fighters, great logistics managers, capable leaders, an inspiring presence for legionaries or an intimidating killing machine to barbarians.

I have a question with regards to Marcus Petronius.
Do we know if he was promoted to Centurion within 4 years of joining the legions? Or did he spend several years as a Librarius and then when he started getting promoted again and ended up being promoted to Centurion within 4 years?

I have two suggestions for future videos:
1. How important was Arminius rebelion and leadership, since he stopped Rome to colonize Germania and that free folk later ended the Empire
2. Why didn't Rome developed an important industry, something that make it economically instable

Nothing has Changed. You can still work your way up in the Military to become the Highest Ranking Puppet of the Rich Families. Only that Today, you can Surpass a 20 Year Long, Veteran General, by being a Gender, Minority, Races Appointment. With No skills at all.

What happened if the sons of centurions or important people turned out to be incompetent fools themselves once they were parachuted into higher positions? Would they just get quietly transferred to unimportant positions after a while?

No. I do not want to meet them. They are professional grade mean, aggressive and hurt people then get away with it on a regular basis. So no, I don't think I want to meet. I do like the idea of them fighting for my side though

Amazing how Ancient Rome and USA are going down the exact same path to destruction. Too many foreign wars. Too much debt. Devalued currency. Poisoned population. Perverted morals. Self worship. Idol worship. We're doomed.

How are these impressive (other than the first one? In both cases, we're talking about people elevated by their own father's, or elevating their own children. It's easy to excel when you start halfway up the ladder.

The only thing I hate about your videos is how you prounounce letter C it really isnt pronounced as K especially when talking about Roman names and such. Try fixing that and your vids will become pure perfection.

You mentioned multiple legions with the same number, for example first Italica, Minervia and Adiutrix and second Adiutrix, Augusta and Partica. Why were there multiple legions with the same number?

In Republican Rome and in the Empire NOTHING WAS MERIT BASED! It was ALL who you were friends with and which family you married into sort of like government and corporate politics of today.

I'm pretty sure Roman generals were willing to fight in the front line as well, a hell of a lot of them seemed to get wounded or killed. Look at Caesar's career as an example.

Is the centurion seniority correct? I was sure that the Pilus Prior were the leads of their respective cohorts, if so why are they placed underneath the posterior?

What is amazing is that we can look back on the carers of individuals who died 2000 or so years ago in an empire that fell 1600 years ago.

You notice all the wheat bix kids put some kind of sugar on them? Theyre like eating cardboard without something to flavour and give them taste.
