8. The Plight of Bibulus

Julius Caesar gains a new enemy with his extravagant spending as Aedile. The ghost of Marius raises more controversy as Julius Caesar openly challenges the Optimates and emboldens the Populares. Enter onto the stage Marcus Calpurnius Bibulus.

• Corrections: 
  
  
  
  1. Cicero was from an Equestrian family.
  
  
  2. I referred to the god Victory when talking about the trophies to Marius. In fact, this was a goddess and her name was Victoria.
