The narrative spans key events of Roman history—from Caesar’s war with Pompey, through his reign, to the conflict between Mark Antony and Octavian. But what can a modern viewer truly learn from this series? Renowned medieval historian Klim Zhukov and Dmitry “GOBLIN” Puchkov set out to explore exactly that.
Covering history from 52 BCE onward, this companion examines every aspect of the world depicted: political struggles, economic realities, military affairs, language, naming conventions, calendars, and architecture. The result is an engaging dialogue between “historical history” and “cinematic history,” offering fresh insights and corrections where the show takes creative liberties.
