Julius Caesar's Campaign: Gaul Campaign

Gaul Campaign
At the start of 52 b.c. Gaius Julius Caesar led a campaignrebellion against Gaul. His army was dispersed and vulnerable, but Caesar himself was far away in the Alps taking care of Roman politics. It was 58 b.c. when Julius first got involved with Gaul. At first many of the tribes welcomed Caesar as a friend and a redeemer. but as time went on all but a few allied tribes turned against him. The ironic part of it all was that the people leading the revolt were chieftains he had rewarded showing them favor and friendship.
The reasoning for all this conflict was that Caesar felt that he needed to redeem himself and uphold his family name. He was on a conquest to have the most power and and money. And it would also help him keep

his place in office.
Caesar Augustus had much more widespread trouble, although not as much as the rebellion of 52 b.c. Caesar’s conquests in Gaul will remain part of the Roman Empire for at least another five centuries. He based his success as much on careful diplomacy as much as it was also on military strength and skill. He also wasn't the last, imperialist Sir Arthur Wellesley found this to also be true. Its very seldom that imperial powers have enough troops to maintain hold of a largely populated area only by force.
“Remarkable range and degree of talents combined in The victory won, Caesar had the political skill to follow it up with a lasting settlement, and turned Gaul into a stable pro­vince of Rome. Few commanders throughout history have possessed the Julius Caesar, but it is also fair to say that many of his greatest successes came in getting himself out of tight spots of his own creation.”
