Description

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 5, The Britons have been searching for Paulinus and the Roman troops to engage in battle and settle their quest for revenge. After being on the move for some time, the Britons detoured from a main Roman road nearby and ran into the Romans who were lying in wait on the expected detour route. Thousands of Soldiers and warriors have already been killed in the rebellion and three cities have been attacked by the Britons and destroyed. The Romans are fighting to hold their last grip of power on Roman Briton, and the Britons are fighting to destroy the last large military force left in Britannia and secure their freedom. The battle is here, and we are going to get into it in part 5, but we are also going to look at the aftermath of the battle and how it affected the lives of the main characters of our story and of the landscape of Britannia and the later day United Kingdom. Enjoy!
