Julius Caesar wants to come home to Rome after so many years of war in Gaul. The problem? He can only return home under very specific conditions that will grant him legal immunity. His enemies also want Caesar home, without legal immunity, so that they can tear him down. Who will win the legal battle, and how might Pompey Magnus help? And of course, what will happen, if Caesar doesn’t get his way?
Our essential question to keep in mind throughout the episode is: Was a new civil war inevitable?

Death of the Roman Republic (DOTRR) is an educational podcast, and any clips from other media is used to transform and elevate its educational content, using modern media to help people relate to a 2000 year old story. (Speaking as a not-Fair Use expert), DOTRR seeks to use Fair Use, in transforming media clips used for educational purposes, and in that Death of the Roman Republic will never make a profit (no advertisements, Patreon, etc.).
*2024 update - Google Podcasts is apparently shutting down, I am attempting to upload to podcast to Spotify. Fingers crossed this works, I nonetheless have an always will do this for fun, and do not seek to make any profit, and use media to elevate education (without outdated memes and references) through transformative means.
