A political and financial patron of Julius Caesar, Crassus joined Caesar and Pompey in the unofficial political alliance known as the First Triumvirate. Together the three men dominated the Roman political system. The alliance would not last indefinitely due to the ambitions, egos, and jealousies of the three men. While Caesar and Crassus were lifelong allies, Crassus and Pompey disliked each other and Pompey grew increasingly envious of Caesar's spectacular successes in the Gallic Wars. The alliance was re-stabilized at the Lucca Conference in 56 BC, after which Crassus and Pompey again served jointly as Consuls. Following his second Consulship, Crassus was appointed as the Governor of Roman Syria. Crassus used Syria as the launchpad for a military campaign against the Parthian Empire, Rome's long-time Eastern enemy. Crassus' campaign was a disastrous failure, resulting in his defeat and death at the Battle of Carrhae.
This animated historical documentary video discusses how one of the wealthiest men in history - Marcus Licinius Crassus became so rich during the era of the Late Roman Republic and features other great Roman generals and statesmen like Caesar, Sulla, Pompey, Lucullus, Marius, and others. We will find out how rich Crassus was and how he became so wealthy. More videos on the richest people in history and the Roman economy are planned.

What Was Crassus Thinking? - The "fool" of Carrhae
Today I wanted to take a closer look at the common narrative that Crassus was a bumbling idiot who caused the disaster of Carrhae. What was he thinking! Today we will attempt to reconstruct his chain of decisions to determine if they really were misguided.
As a reference for this rehabilitation of Crassus, I recommend the book "Defeat of Rome in the East: Crassus, the Parthians, and the Disastrous Battle of Carrhae, 53 BC" by Gareth C Sampson

Deadly Moments in History - Avenging Crassus
In 54 BC Crassus launched Rome's first campaign against the Parthians only to face disastrous defeat at the battle of Carrhae. This humiliation required Roman vengeance. The campaigns that followed would become the opening salvos of the Roman-Parthian wars!

Carrhae 53 BC - Roman–Parthian War DOCUMENTARY
Previously we have made an animated historical documentary on the battle of Nisibis http://bit.ly/30vmmwO between the Roman and the Parthian empires. But that battle was far from first - two empires started fighting immediately after their borders touched and that war led to the iconic battle of Carrhae in 53 BC, during which the Romans of the triumvir Marcus Crassus fought against the Parthians of Surena.

Marcus Crassus - Golden Ambition - #1
Background and early life of Marcus Licinius Crassus.
published: 29 Aug 2016
The Bizarre Life Of The Man Who Killed Spartacus
Spartacus is a historical figure who is often celebrated as a symbol against oppression. He is a figure that is also popular in pop culture, and Stanley Kubrick’s 1960 movie about the rebellious gladiator has forever etched the phrase “I’m Spartacus” into the history of cinema. But what about the historical figure that killed Spartacus, Marcus Crassus? He is often depicted as the villain in stories about Spartacus. But what is the real truth about the richest man in Rome at the time and the man who crushed the rebellion led by Spartacus? How did he make his vast fortune and how did he rise to power in Rome? The details about Crassus's life are actually bordering on the bizarre and even comical.

Spartacus is a historical figure who is often celebrated as a symbol against oppression. He is a figure that is also popular in pop culture, and Stanley Kubrick’s 1960 movie about the rebellious gladiator has forever etched the phrase “I’m Spartacus” into the history of cinema. But what about the historical figure that killed Spartacus, Marcus Crassus? He is often depicted as the villain in stories about Spartacus. But what is the real truth about the richest man in Rome at the time and the man who crushed the rebellion led by Spartacus? How did he make his vast fortune and how did he rise to power in Rome? The details about Crassus's life are actually bordering on the bizarre and even comical.

Crassus rejects the idea of permitting his troops to cross Rubicon and enter Rome by proposing the fate of Sulla.
Movie: Spartacus (1960) directed by S. Kubrick
A political and financial patron of Julius Caesar, Crassus joined Caesar and Pompey in the unofficial political alliance known as the First Triumvirate. Together the three men dominated the Roman political system. The alliance would not last indefinitely due to the ambitions, egos, and jealousies of the three men. While Caesar and Crassus were lifelong allies, Crassus and Pompey disliked each other and Pompey grew increasingly envious of Caesar's spectacular successes in the Gallic Wars. The alliance was re-stabilized at the Lucca Conference in 56 BC, after which Crassus and Pompey again served jointly as Consuls. Following his second Consulship, Crassus was appointed as the Governor of Roman Syria. Crassus used Syria as the launchpad for a military campaign against the Parthian Empire, Rome's long-time Eastern enemy. Crassus' campaign was a disastrous failure, resulting in his defeat and death at the Battle of Carrhae.
