Examine the history of Ancient Rome with The Roman War Machine, a four-part documentary series narrated by Joseph Campanella. From its establishment in 300 BC to the crushing defeat at the hands of the German chief Akininis in 9 AD, The Roman War Machine examines every aspect of this legendary fighting force. Throughout each episode we’ll take a closer look at ancient Rome’s war politics, Roman legions, commanders, their disciplined war tactics and battles. See how Caesar used his soldiers for political gain as well as in the field of battle, follow Hadrian’s troops as they build monuments still standing today and learn what life was like for the common soldier with the help of ancient documents and historical re-enactments.
