joe Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 I've been considering doing an article on battles and campaigns the romans almost fought. for example caesar was planning a parthian campaign before his assassination; Agricola wanted to invade Ireland, Nero Sudan; and I believe Julian the Apostate was planning to invade Sassanid Persia. any other ideas?

Axel Wers Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) Augustus had some plans to take control (probably) over Arabia Felix (modern Yemen), but troops that were sent there, weren't very successful. Actually they were defeated. After this Augustus focused on other parts of borders. Julian the Apostate was planning to invade Sassanid Persia. Julian really invaded to Persia, but underestimated the situation and his campaign failed. Edited September 4, 2014 by Axel Wers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axel Wers Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Never mind. Empire was in almost permanent conflict with Persians, there were more attempts to invade Persia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
