Rome for Sale: How the Equites Bought the Republic (Part 3)

  • Resumen

  • In this episode, we dive into the Social War, the brutal conflict that saw Rome’s Italian allies rise in rebellion after decades of exclusion. As the Republic descended into civil strife, the equites once again found themselves shaping events.

    🔎 We track the rise of Sulla, his growing rivalry with Marius, and the explosive chain of events that led to Sulla’s first march on Rome—a shocking escalation in Roman politics. From the massacre of equestrian financiers in Asia to Sulla’s purges and proscriptions, we follow how the equites were both targeted and protected, depending on where their interests aligned.

    💡 As Roman institutions crumbled, the question grows louder: were the equites victims of political chaos—or its most cunning architects?

    🔔 Subscribe for Part 4! We'll explore how the equites recovered after Sulla’s departure, how they quietly rebuilt their influence, and why Rome could never truly cut them out.
