List of Roman legions - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In the last years of the Republic, several Roman generals started to levy legions with their own money; these legions were loyal to their commanders, rather than to the Senate, so their presence increased the power of these generals. Maintaining these legions was, however, expensive, so they were usually levied for particular campaigns (such as those of Pompey against the pirates, those of Julius Caesar against Gauls, those of Mark Antony and Crassus against the Parthian Empire, and so on), and disbanded as soon these campaigns ended. These are mainly legions of the Roman Empire; earlier legions were not permanent named organizations. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/List_of_Roman_legions   (1748 words)

Roman Emperors DIR Basil II Scylitzes alleges that one of the reasons for the Phocas rebellion in 987 was that many leading generals had been denied a role in the Bulgarian expedition of 986. In the novel the emperor's hostility towards the 'powerful' families is of secondary significance: the Phocades, for instance, are named only in a later scholium rather than in the main body of the text. [[68]] Certainly, it is in the context of annual campaigns led by the emperor that Scylitzes refers to the battle of Kleidion, a contest in the passes near Strumitza north of Thessalonica, during which a Bulgarian blockade was broken by an attack from the rear by Basil's general Nicephorus Xiphias. www.roman-emperors.org /basilii.htm   (16624 words)

Picturing the Roman triumph: putting the Fasti Capitolini in context. - Apollo - HighBeam Research The Fasti which recorded the roster of Roman triumphs were, in other words, inserted into a room already resonant with triumphal images; in fact, the observant visitor would have been able to spot the record of the triumph of Paullus among the surviving fragments of the Fasti on the adjacent wall. Visual images, memorials and scholarly enquiry combine to present Roman office holding and its marks of glory as a seamless continuum from the foundation of the city under Romulus to the present day. Renaissance scholars also speculated on the ultimate authorship of the inscribed list, just as they did on the identities of the artists who had created the ancient sculptures then being unearthed from the ground. highbeam.com /library/doc0.asp?docid=1G1:106732100&refid=ink_tptd_mag   (2493 words)

Appeals Court, Reversing Itself, Holds 2 Salvadoran Generals Liable in Torture Case - New York Times Neris González, a Salvadoran Roman Catholic church worker who testified at the trial that she endured 12 days of torture, said in a statement that the decision showed "that the Salvadoran military bears responsibility for what we, as a people, suffered." A federal appeals court has reversed its own ruling and upheld a $54.6 million jury verdict against two retired generals from El Salvador who were held responsible in a 2002 trial for the torture of three Salvadorans during the country's civil war in the 1980's. An article on Sunday about a federal appeals court ruling that reversed its own decision and upheld a $54.6 million jury-trial verdict against two retired Salvadoran generals found responsible for torture during the 1980's civil war misstated the role of the Center for Justice and Accountability, a human rights law group. www.nytimes.com /2006/01/08/international/americas/08salvador.html?ex=1294376400&en=2e3d9b569532110c&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss   (816 words)

Amazon.com: Books: The Thirty Years' War 1618-1648 Instead he leaves us with lists of major leaders and generals in which one would already have to have an in depth understanding of this era to recognize and understand. The war which was fought to, and failed, settle once and for all, which religion a state's subjects should follow, succeeded in fracturing the once mighty Holy Roman Empire into over a thousand petty states and principalities. This was the first pan-European conflict, and a finer example of superpower meddling could not be found - local religious conflicts being transformed into all-out war by great powers, such as France and Sweden, invites comparison with Cold War conflicts or the current war in the Congo. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1841763780?v=glance   (375 words)

ROMAN ARMY - LoveToKnow Article on ROMAN ARMY Auxiliaries (as is said above) had served occasionally in the Republican armies since about 250 B.c., and in the latest Republic large bodies of them had been enlisted in the armies of contending generals. Thus Caesar in Gaul enrolled a division of native Gauls, free men but not citizens of Rome, which ranked from the first in all but legal status as a legion, the Alaudae, and in due course was formally admitted to the legionary list (legio V.). In the third or Imperial age there were many legions (indeed, a fixed number) quartered in fixed fortresses; there were also other troops, numerous and important, if not yet so formidable as the legionaries. www.1911encyclopedia.com /R/RO/ROMAN_ARMY.htm   (848 words)
