The Great Jewish Revolt of 66 CE

The Roman Empire in the early 1st century CE was often regarded as the perfect empire. The outstanding military prowess of the Romans was used to expand the empire, and once the territories were acceptably pacified, Roman political power was installed from the capital of the empire to the local governments of the territories.

NEW MAP: Europe 132: Bar Kokhba Revolt (30 Nov 132) https://buff.ly/2UlvYdj In 130 Hadrian visited Judea and decided to build Aelia Capitolina—a new city dedicated to the Roman god Jupiter—on Jerusalem’s ruins. This act antagonized the Jewish population, who revolted under the leadership of Simon bar Kokhba. The outcome would be the bloodiest of the Jewish–Roman wars and the last serious attempt at Jewish independence for centuries. #ancient #ancienthistory #2ndcentury #ancientrome #carta #europe #europeanhistory #judea #historian #historic #historicalplace #historybuff #historygeek #historymatters #israel #judaism #jewishrevolt #map #mapping #maps #palestine #parthia #roman #romanempire #romanhistory #hadrian #spqr #romans #caesar #newmap (at Jerusalem, Israel) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-OvbVRAIVY/?igshid=1iwul3mdvjjm7

NEW MAP: Europe 69: Year of the Four Emperors: Galba (14 Jan 69 AD) https://buff.ly/2LHLiNi Already 69 years old when he displaced the 30-year-old Nero, the weak and indecisive Galba proved to be unable to impose his authority in Rome. In January 69 AD the Rhine legions mutinied against him, proclaiming their commander Vitellius—whom Galba had appointed to lead them just months earlier—as emperor. What would become known as the Year of Four Emperors had begun. #ancient #ancienthistory #ancientrome #imperialrome #carta #cartographic #europe #europeanhistory #germania #historian #historicalplace #historybuff #historylovers #historymatters #instahistory #judea #january #january10 #jewishrevolt #mapa #mapmaking #maps #roman #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #vitellius #galba #romanlegions #newmap (at Rome, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3KvqckAMnc/?igshid=1nzz11tzqxmpi
