During the Roman Republic, two brothers took it upon themselves to seek to change Rome to benefit the poor and underclass.
Needless to say, the Roman elites did not like this and did everything in their power to ensure it didn’t happen.
…and the elites were successful.
But in the process, they changed Roman history forever and put the Republic on a path to destruction.
Learn more about the Gracchi Brothers and how they tried to change Roman society on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
