Probus, Aurelian's prodigy and friend, rose to the purple shortly after Aurelian's murder just like his mentor had, through sheer grit and merit. In five short years he pursued Aurelian's policies brilliantly, with a deftness of touch perhaps that Aurelian lacked. He was everywhere at once, East and West, North and South, campaigning north of the Rhine like Germanicus and Drusus, showing the Persians that Rome was no longer afraid, in short, helping to reinforce Aurelian's miracle. To friend and foe alike, lest there be any doubt, thanks to Probus all knew - ROME WAS BACK.

Germanicus, son of Drusus, the golden boy! As remarkable as his father in so many ways, he made his name campaigning across the Rhine just like dad, and managed to recover lost Eagles, to give a proper burial to the Roman dead at Teutoburg, and to teach Arminimus a lesson. Perhaps he did too much in fact, inspiring jealousy in his adopted father, the Emperor Tiberius, and a suspicion that would bring about his early, tragic demise.
We enter the world beyond the Republic with the first Roman to have earned the cognomen "Germanicus", through blood sweat and tears. Grandson of Marc Antony, son of Livia, step-son to Octavian, you might think that he was tempted to live in the lap of luxury but instead, Drusus was cut from an older cloth. Determined to win military glory, and to live an exemplary life, he did so in spades before that life was cut short, but not before he planted some extraordinary seeds.
When word of his younger brother's life-threatening illness reached him, Roman General Tiberius (later Emperor Tiberius Caesar Augustus) who was in Pavia at the time, crossed the Alps like a man possessed. Without stopping day or night, he covered 200 Roman miles in a dangerous country. Tiberius' frantic dash across the Rhine from northwestern Italy to Germany to his brother's bedside evolved into a legend. Read this story in the blog.

Heute wird es wild in meinem Perry Rhodan Reread Podcast, denn mit dem 58. Band der Heftromanserie kommt es heute zur "Attacke aus dem Unsichtbaren" von Clark Darlton. Der verzweifelte Robotregent ruft unsere Terraner um Hilfe, denn immer mehr Lebewesen verschwinden spurlos. Perry Rhodan eilt mit der DRUSUS in das Mirsalsystem und versucht dem Geheimnis auf die Schliche zu kommen. Da es sich hier um einen Doppelband handelt, darf man vermuten dass dieses Problem nicht in diesem Band gelöst wird! Wie der Roman bei mir abschneidet, hört ihr in dieser Folge!
This week on Royally Screwed, we're continuing the Julio-Claudian saga! Before we get to Tiberius as the emperor, how about we learn a bit more about his past-- as well as the life of his brother Drusus-- as they help the Roman army take on the empire's northern neighbors.Subscribe for more episodes as they come.Twitter: @Denim_CreekInstagram: denimcreekproMusic:Intro/Outro: “Life O' the Lavish” - Jules Gaia, “Action rock_full” - Radio_Parma, “Underwater Junkyard” - T.

The people of ancient Rome knew of a tragic hero Drusus (Drusus the Elder), the younger brother of Tiberius who died in a campaign. But there was another, younger and lesser known, Drusus in Tiberius' family. He was Nero Claudius Drusus (Drusus the Younger, nicknamed Castor), the only son of Tiberius. The elder Drusus may have been a hero, but Castor seemed to be mostly overlooked first by his own family, as well as future historians.

This is the story of how Gaius Marius went from being the Greatest Man in Rome to Public Enemy #1.But Marius, usually master of the political narrative, ended up having his story written by his political rivals. What was the true character of this surprisingly elusive figure?What is worth imitating? What is worth avoiding? Before fully answering these questions, we must understand the details of his story, one of the most dramatic and memorable sequences in all of Plutarch's lives.On today's podcast: One way to respond when you're being undermined The problem with putting off legitimate political complaints Marius, Drusus, and the beginning of the Social War Sulla, Marius, and the beginning of the Civil War Marius' harrowing escape The prophecy about Marius' 7 consulships The Bloody Return of Marius Links: Thanks to our sponsor - ideamarket.io - @ideamarket_io on twitter!

The Republic had triumphed over all its enemies. But this multinational empire is changing Rome's society and institutions. A "new man" will rise to become the master of the Republic: Gaius Marius.More about VITOR at www.vitoritalytours.com
Non solo in Amazzonia: anche da queste parti si scoprono nuove specie, mai osservate prima. Di recente nelle vallate del Parco del Monviso è stato identificato un nuovo insetto, il Drusus delmastroi, un tricottero raccolto da Gianni Delmastro, curatore del Museo civico di Storia Naturale di Carmagnola, che ha poi dato il nome all'animale dopo che il prof. Hans Malicky ha capito che si trattava di una specie prima sconosciuta.Ne abbiamo parlato proprio con Gianni Delmastro
The Temple of Concord is the site of a series of shrines dedicated to the Roman goddess Concordia, and erected at the western end of the Roman Forum. The earliest temple is believed to have been vowed by Marcus Furius Camillus in 367 BCE, but it may not have been built until 218 BCE. The temple which had been occasionally repaired was completey rebuilt by Emperor Tiberius and dedicated in the year 10 after the original had been burnt down following a lightning strike. Tiberius paid for the construction with the spoils of his and his brother Drusus’ highly successful campaigns conquering and pillaging across vast areas of Germania. The early version of the temple was similar to the nearby Temple of Castor and Pollux with steps leading up through lines of columns supporting a pediment that led to the entrance doors and a long and narrow main cella. However Tiberius’ version was quite different as the temple expanded sideways with the main cella being wide rather than long – in part this was necessary because of the space limitations at the foot of the Capitoline hill and the fact that is was sited at the foot of the Tabularium. Its sideways expansion meant it ate into the space that had been occupied by the Basilica Opimia (sited to the left of the original building when looking from the path that runs in front of the Arch of Septimius Severus).
The Temple of Castor and Pollux is readily recognizable by its remaining 3 white columns standing in a line close by the Temple of Vesta. These columns are part of the side of a much later rebuild of what was originally a 5 Century BCE temple. The original temple to the semi-divine twins Castor and Pollux was pledged just after 500 BCE by Aulus Postumius Tubertus - an early Roman military leader. According to legend, Jupiter’s mortal son Castor and his immortal son Pollux came riding into battle in aid of Rome’s forces – the twins were seen by Postumius and his immediate troops. The semi-gods were carrying spears, riding white horses and helped guide an attack of the Roman troops. They were then seen again, later that same day, at the spring of Joturna where they spread news of Rome’s victory. The Temple and Spring of Joturna are very close by. In the early second century BCE the temple was repaired by possibly Aemilius Paullus in celebration of his victory over the Macedonians. Further modifications and updates were made by Lucius Caecilius Metellus and then by the Emperor Augustus following the devastating fire of 14 or 9 BCE. He used the repairs to better associate the temple and the divine twins with his own two sons - Gaius and Lucius Caesar. Sadly, both children would die before completion of the project and so, in time, the association changed to be with Tiberius and his late brother Drusus. In the course of all these repairs and updates the design was changed to be of a form similar to other adjacent forum temples such as that of Divus Julius. The updated version had two sets of steps flanking the entrance, a row of 8 columns at the front and back and 11 columns on each side. The 3 remaining columns, which have Corinthian capitals, are from the middle section of the east side. They support a simple but elegant entablature that would have run around the entirety of the edge of the roof – most likely with a carved dedication on the front that faced North. Ascending the steps at the front one would have passed through the front columns, under a large triangular pediment and into a single main temple hall that likely contained statues of Castor and Pollux. Given that the temple has a raised podium fronting directly onto the Forum it also served as an orators platform. Perhaps surprisingly, the extremely solid base of the temple’s foundations was divided into chambers for various official public services - particularly those needing the protection of thick walls. In addition to its civic function, the Temple was the center of annual celebrations commemorating the victory at Lake Regillus. A major cavalry parade was held each year on July 15th and featured as many as 5,000 young men carrying shields and spears.
Join in as we discuss the immediate aftereffects of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. From the German tribes' reactions deep in the heart of Germania all the way to Rome where an unsuspecting Augustus will reach the breaking point. In this episode we cover Arminius campaign to conquer all of Germany and how for the first time, since the arrival of Drusus, the Germans are able to release their rage upon the Roman soldiers and citizens alike.
Een belangrijk thema voor Nederland is de strijd met het water. De Romeinen hadden hier al mee te maken. De grens van het Romeinse Rijk, de limes, bestond in het noorden onder andere uit de rivier de Rijn. De Romeinen bouwden een hele infrastructuur rondom het water en moesten dit goed onderhouden. Denk aan de dammen, kades, havenwerken en kanalen. Deze podcast gaat over het promotieonderzoek van archeoloog en bioloog Jan Verhagen naar Romeinse waterwerken in de Rijn-Maasdelta. Een belangrijk onderdeel is de ligging van de befaamde Drususgracht(en).
Gallia wasn't as peaceful as Augustus' propaganda would have you believe. Meanwhile, Germania's shadow stretched across the Rhine. Until the bold leader Drusus decides to march to the ends of the Earth for the glory of Rome and his place as Augustus' successor.
Drusus dies in 9 BCE and now it is up to his brother Tiberius to finish the job and pacify Germany. However the mission is by no means easy as we discuss the 3 years that Tiberius spent to bring the region to heel. Now that peace has been established we have the arrival of Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus, who for the next 6 years will rule Germania. The question is how will this man with a wealth of experience, but a personality rivaling the world's worst tyrants, handles the newest addition to the Roman empire and what does this mean for Germany as we reach the end of 1 BCE.
Drusus lies dead after 30 days of pain and misery in the forests of Germany. Tiberius, his brother, stands looking over his beloved brother's body and mourns his loss. However Tiberius can not grieve for too long because he is in a crisis. He needs to get his brother safely back to Rome so he can be given a proper funeral. However he is deep in the heart of Germany, surrounded on all sides by hostile tribes, and is relying on an army who is on the verge of breaking down completely. Things have never seemed so dire for the Roman army in Germany before. So join in as we discuss the final trip of Drusus, soon to be, Germanicus as his brother tries to bring him home to rest.
In today's episode we look at Drusus's fourth and final campaign into Germania. This campaign has the typical battles and setbacks that the Romans are use to but it comes with an extra twist. This time Drusus has gone too far and spirits have intervened. Ghosts walk through the camps delivering omens, wolves howl and women scream throughout the night on all sides in the dark forest, and the sky itself is streaked with the stars racing towards the earth. Meanwhile the Roman army sit in their tents praying for daylight and the safety of the Rhine. Explore with us as we discuss the nightmare that the Roman army goes through this fourth campaign and how Drusus, the conquering hero of the Roman Empire, dies in the never ending forests of Germany.
We have our new logo! Send us a message if you would like a t-shirt with the logo on it! For this week's episode we look at Drusus's third campaign and how it was slowed to a crawl thanks to the efforts of the Sugambri and their allies/former enemies the Chatti. However life is not all that bad for Drusus as he receives word that he is going to be made consul and heads home to celebrate with his family. While celebrating the gods send a reminder that Drusus should stop invading Germania. Will he listen to them?
In today's episode we explore Rome's reaction to Drusus returning from his first exploration into Germany and how Augustus seems to believe that Germany could be the future. Despite his popularity, Drusus is not done with Germany and has plans for a 2nd campaign the following year. Listen in as we discuss the radically different second trip through Germany where Drusus will have to face some large and hostile Germanic tribes and a foreboding message from the gods' own winged messengers; the bees.
Drusus goes out on his first cruise of Germany and explores the mysterious land. For Drusus this is an adventure of a life time. The question is will this be the adventure to end his life? In this campaign he will make allies, fend off enemies and will be ambushed by trees! So much is at stake for Drusus because if he fails or is halted, Augustus may not give him a second chance. Join in as we ride along with this young warrior and see the surprises that await him in Germania.

So join in and find out how Drusus deals with pesky Gaullic rebels, crushes Sugambri raiders, and figures out where exactly he wants to go on his sightseeing adventure into Germany. Make sure to bring your swim trunks, flip-flops and gladius as we begin Drusus's quest for glory!
Hello everyone! Welcome back to the Podcast on Germany. This week we took a break from our discussion of Rome's invasion of Germany and instead discussed Ludwig II of Bavaria with Skye from Histories, Mysteries, and Conspiracies. Ludwig is known for a few things. 1. Creating the most beautiful castles in Europe and one of the largest tourist attractions in Germany. 2. Possibly being crazy. 3. Found dead in a lake just the day after he was forced off the throne by a coup d'etat. In this episode we discuss Ludwig's life and the mysterious that surround it and his death. So join in and ponder the mysteries of the Swan King with us! As a reminder, you can support the show by donating on our website www.podcastongermany.com and we will be back to Drusus crossing of the Rhine next week!
In this episode we look at Augustus's indecision on crossing the Rhine. While Marcus rectified his mistake by pushing the Sicambri back across the Rhine, Augustus starts to build up Gaul. For the next 3 years he will stay in Gaul and the Rhine stays on his mind. While Augustus pauses before making the leap, his stepsons Tiberius and Drusus make a name for themselves clearing the Alps of enemy tribes. Drusus (young, dashing, and highly charismatic) sees Germany as his Gallic campaign to prove himself worthy. Meanwhile his older brother is not a fan. The question is who will convince the Emperor?
“Bits of weapons and horses' limbs lay about, and human heads fixed to tree-trunks. In groves nearby were barbaric altars, where the Germans had laid the tribunes and senior centurions and sacrificed them.” — Tacitus “It stands on record that armies already wavering and on the point of collapse have been rallied by the women, pleading heroically with their men, thrusting forward their bared breasts…” — Tacitus“They are not so easily convinced to plough the land and wait patiently for harvest as to challenge an enemy and run the risk to be wounded. They think it is weak and spiritless to earn by sweat what they might purchase with blood.” — Tacitus A little over 2,000 years ago, Rome was a well-oiled war machine crushing everything in its path. At that time, the Roman legions were the most deadly military force in the Western world, and possibly in the whole world. Every year, they conquered new peoples and pushed the boundaries of their empire. Rape and pillage was the name of the game, and they were masters at it. But in the year 9 CE, something happened in the forests of Germany that was going to have a profound impact on the destiny of the world. Some historians go so far as to suggest that both the German and English languages may not exist as we know them, had things gone differently. News arriving from Germany, along with a severed head delivered by courier, threw Emperor Augustus in a deep depression. In this first of two parts about the clash between Rome's power with Germanic tribesmen, we'll look at what we know about Germanic tribal cultures from those days, walk among the grisly remnants of a battlefield with Roman general Germanicus, and consider how Tacitus' work was fuel to the fire of Nazi ideology 2,000 years later. Also, in this episode: Europe's pre-Christian religions, naked tribesmen snowboarding on their shields, the dramatic encounter between Gaius Marius with Cimbri & Teutones, Gaius Julius Caesar making a larger-than-life entrance into Germany, Drusus' campaign beyond the Rhine, racing on horseback for 200 miles to see one's brother, slavery with golden chains, and much more as we set the stage for part 2, when the big showdown will take place.

Brother Lucian – Tad Brother Sepheron – Freaky Brother Skold – John Brother Zahariel – Neil Brother Zada – Mike GM – Andy Completing their mission the Marines of Kill Team Epsilon are taken back up to the command ship, Blade of Drusus to determine their next move. Captain Grayson feels that it’s time to commit forces to attack the hive fleet. To this end he proposes to send Kill Team Epsilon aboard the hive ship to find the synapse chamber and destroy the hive link, sending the fleet into disarray. Secondary missions include rescuing any potential survivors and gathering genetic material from the ship. Our group of fearless Space Marines is loaded into torpedoes that have been converted into boarding craft and launched into the Tyranid vessel. Upon exiting the torpedoes, Kill Team Epsilon finds themselves inside the ship, which gives all appearance of being inside a muscle. Fighting off ropey tendrils they make their way deeper into the vessel. As they continue deeper they find lung-like “organs” that appear to be spore flumes. The flumes operate the spore shield so they are dispatched with prejudice. Next is the gestation chamber, filled with vile, incubating xenos. Brother Lucian is able to carefully extract a genetic sample without disturbing the gestating creatures. Moving from the reproductive chambers the team enters the “stomach” area. They are surprised to find a partially digested imperial ship covered in horrible slug-like xenos creatures. Brother Zada is able to jet pack over to investigate and determines that there are survivors inside the ship trying to hold off a group of tyranid warriors. Time for Kill Team Epsilon to get to work!

Vogul and his crew track clues that lead them to remote parts of the Koronus Expanse in search of the fabled ship. They must negotiate with cannibalistic savages, other Rogue Traders, and perhaps worst of all the snarky captain of Lady Orleans' freighter. And when a strange shuttlecraft approaches without hailing them will they destroy it, investigate, or run and hide?
After the death of Tiberius's son Drusus, Praetorian Prefect Lucius Sejanus's influence grew exponentially. Sejanus was the defacto ruler of Rome from 26 AD until his fall from power 5 years later.
Augustus promoted his steps sons Tiberius and Drusus to high office long before they were technically eligible. He hoped they would share power with him until Gaius and Lucius Caesar came of age, but Drusus died young and Tiberius went into self-imposed exile.
