 | | The Romans had even decided to close the Temple of Janus in the Forum, something that only occurred when there was peace throughout Roman lands. |
 | | In 225 BC an alliance of Gallic tribes (Taurini, Taurisces, Insubres, Lingones, Salasses, Agones, and Boii) and mercenaries (Gesati) from Transalpine Gaul moved into Etruria through an unguarded pass in the Apennines. |
 | | To meet this invasion, the Romans called on the Insubres enemies, the (Adriatic) Veneti, the Patavini, and the Cenomani, who rapidly mobilised defensive forces. |
