 Gaius Flaminius - LoveToKnow 1911
He erected the Circus Flaminius on the Campus Martius, for the accommodation of the plebeians, and continued the military road from Rome to Ariminum, which had hitherto only reached as far as Spoletium (see Flaminia, Via).
He hastened at once to Arretium, the termination of the western high road to the north, to protect the passes of the Apennines, but was defeated and killed at the battle of the Trasimene lake (see Punic Wars).
His son, Gaius Flaminius, was quaestor under P. Scipio Africanus the elder in Spain in 210, and took part in the capture of New Carthage.

 Livy's History of Rome
Quinctius, who was pressing on the retiring foe, saw the Macedonians suddenly holding their spears upright, and as he was doubtful as to what they intended by this unfamiliar maneuver he held up the pursuit for a few minutes.
Quinctius sold some of the prisoners and a part of the booty and gave the rest to the soldiers, after which he proceeded to Larisa, not knowing for certain in what direction the king had gone or what movements he was contemplating.
Quinctius asserted that it belonged to Rome by the right of war, for before the war broke out he marched there and invited the citizens to enter into friendly relations with him, and whilst they were at full liberty to abandon Philip they preferred his allegiance to that of the Romans.

Philip's allies in Greece deserted him and in 179 he was decisively defeated at the Battle of Cynoscephalae by the Roman proconsul Titus Quinctius Flaminius.
Luckily for the Greeks, Flaminius was a moderate man and an admirer of Greek culture.
At the Isthmian Games in 196, Flaminius declared all the Greek cities free, although Roman garrisons were placed at Corinth and Chalcis.

 Livy's History of Rome
Quinctius had entrusted the Achaeans with the defence of the coast towns and they lost no time in sending envoys to the tyrant to remind him of his treaty with Rome and to warn him against disturbing the peace which he had so ardently sought for.
The Magnetes were indebted to Titus Quinctius and the Roman people for more than their liberty - for everything, in fact, which men hold dear and sacred; there was nothing which a man could ask the gods to give him that they had not received from them.
Quinctius was instructed to raise this force so that there might be no delay in the new consul proceeding at once wherever the senate should think it necessary.

 Titus Livius: The History of Rome, Book 3
Titus Quinctius Capitolinus, who had three times been consul, after recounting his own numerous distinctions and those of his family, asserted that neither in the Quinctian house nor in the Roman State did there exist another such example of personal merit and youthful courage.
Quinctius called out that when the day of trial has been fixed for any one indicted on a capital charge and is near at hand, his personal liberty ought not to be interfered with before the case is heard and sentence given.
As Caeso could not be restored to the house of the Quinctii, nor could the greatest of her soldiers be restored to the State, Quinctius was bound in justice and by loyalty to his family to prosecute the false witness who had deprived an innocent man of the power to plead in his own defence.

When Flaminius also sent out a small force they found the Macedonian party already atop the pass between the two main hills.
With the Macedonian left nowhere to be seen, Flaminius ordered his right to stay at the bottom of the slope.
The phalanx being the evidently superior force in the contest so far, Flaminius needed to act fast, if his left was not simply to be crushed by the Macedonian advance.

 Cyno
The Romans consolidated their hold on Epirus and voted Flaminius in for another term as consul and therefore military leader.
After some intense diplomacy to establish which of the less dominant, minor powers of the region were allied to whom, Flaminius and Philip met at Cynoscephalae, named from the Greek for “dog’s head” after the shape of a nearby ridge.
Flaminius also sent his light troops and cavalry forward but, seeing them hard pressed, led one legion and his allies forward on the left to relieve them, whilst holding back the other legion and the elephants on the right (see Figure 2).

 The Project Gutenberg eBook of Young Folks' History, by Charlotte M. Yonge.
And what was worse, the consul, Titus Menenius, was so near the army that he could have saved the Fabii, but for the hatred the patricians bore them as deserters from their cause.
Titus, a young man of that family, begged the Dictator's permission to accept the challenge, and, having gained it, he changed his round knight's shield for the square one of the foot soldiers, and with his short sword came forward on the bridge.
The Gaul made a sweep at him with his broadsword, but, slipping within the guard, Manlius stabbed the giant in two places, and as he fell cut off his head, and took the torc, or broad twisted gold collar that was the mark of all Gallic chieftains.

 History of the Roman Empire - FileFront Gaming Forums
In 198 BC the command of the Roman and allied army was granted to Titus Quinctius Flaminius, and Rome's choice proved to be a wise one.
Then, in 197 BC Flaminius was able to bring Philip of Macedon to a decisive engagement at Cynoscephalae in Thessaly, where the infamous Macedonian phalanx was decisively defeated by the Roman legions.
Though as Flaminius left Greece two years later, the Aetolians, Rome's closest allies during the contest, had been treated with little respect and were left angry at Rome.

In May 217 BC Hannibal crossed the Appenines, losing an eye to a violent attack of ophthalmia during the crossing of the Arno, and ravaged Etruria.
He lured the army of Gaius Flaminius to battle at Lake Trasimene and almost completely destroyed it.
In 183 or 182 BC—probably 183—Prusias agreed to hand him over to Titus Quinctius Flamininus; this time, he escaped by poisoning himself.

 “A Well-Trimmed Ship”:
In the flush of victory, Flaminius advanced to Corinth, the headquarters of the Hellenic League which the Macedonians had used to dominate Greece.
Philippus was no longer "Hegemon." Flaminius spoke in glowing terms [in fluent Greek] of the "liberation of the Greeks." Many Greeks accepted Flaminius’ words at face value: Flaminius was hailed as a hero, and Greeks considered the possibility that the Romans were not barbarians.
Another quarter century would pass after the triumph of Flaminius before the proposition was tested.

 Battle of Cynocephalae (197 BC)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Philip V of Macedon had been an ally of Hannibal and despite having done little to help his ally during the war there was a sour feeling in Rome towards those who aided their enemies.
Despite the war-weariness of the Senate and the people of Rome, Titus Quinctius Flaminius managed to get senatorial authority to wage war in Greece.
Each player will have to decide whether to rush their forces ahead to gain the uphill bonus at the risk of not being fully deployed when the action begins (as chosen historically by Phillip) or to advance less quickly and deploy fully but maybe down slope (the choice of Flaminius in the actual battle).

 Imperium News SEXTILIS 198 BC
From what Imperium News has been able to gather, this unique situation was brought about when the quaestor, realizing he needed help immediately and not later, requested of Consul Titus Quinctius Flaminius that he order Praetor Varro to intervene in Tarraconensis with his Baetican legions.
Under a shroud of the utmost secrecy, the orders were given and Praetor Varro marched northward, rendezvousing with Caelius’ Legio XXI Allied a day’s march south of Bilibis; the rebels had been previously located at the city by the praetor’s scouts.
The delegation, which includes Consul Titus Quinctius Flaminius, his consular aide Quintus Caecilius Metellus, and Legio V commander Licinius Sempronius Nocturnus, remains hopeful, but notes that as both sides become increasingly frustrated chances for peace grow ever more slim.
