ABOUT THIS EPISODE

In the time around 60 AD when the Romans were occupying what would later become the country of England, a grand rebellion took place. The fight was taken to the Romans by the fierce warrior Queen Boudicca of the Iceni tribe of Briton. Boudicca is one of the most famous women of ancient history. She led a group of various tribes in Roman Briton against their Roman occupiers to try and kick Rome from their island. Roman governor Suetonius Paulinus was caught off guard by the rebellion and had to mount a hasty defense to protect Roman interests in Briton or risk the wrath of the Roman Emperor. The future of Roman Briton was at stake.

In Part 3, the rebellion has picked up steam in the form of an army now moving towards the Roman Capitol city of Camulodunum. Boudicca, the warrior queen of the Iceni has now surrounded herself with allies and an army and has started her march toward a Roman city in Briton. The Romans are going to experience their first taste of revenge from the Britons for taking their lands and it is going to be devastating. Let’s see how it unfolds as the warriors of the rebellion, now under full steam, march toward the unimpressed and unprepared Romans.
