Caesar was about to set out of Rome to conquest Darcia and Parthia in a 3 years military campaign, unfortunately he got assassinated before he could do that.

Could he make it had he not been killed by senator gangs ?

there is nothing caesar couldn't do, even not getting stabbed. he let himself get stabbed because he was such an unyieldingly democratic mind and it seemed his death was the majority vote.
Caesar was a god on earth and parthia would have been fucked hard and good
>>
>commander was caesar, at the time of the republics height.

Yeah pretty safe bet to say they were fucked
>>
>>1171799
That's a really beautiful painting.
>>
>>1171799
Yes. Caesar was an exceptional leader, and could have avoided the morale and logistical issues that plagued so many eastern campaigns.

Also, he's a fucking living legend, and men WILL follow him to their breaking point.

>>1171799
state which fucking Caesar dumbass

Nobody knows and anyone posturing otherwise on hyped up speculation and mental fanwanking should be ignored.

looks like you're the dumbass

This, desu. He was easily the greatest human being on earth at the time. Parthia was finished the moment he was born, and it was only the greed of the Senate that saved the Persians. If Caesar had been allowed to perform as expected, Islam would not exist. Or at least might be quarantined.

Depends. I think the war itself would have ended in his favour, but Persia is fucking far. The distance from Rome itself is much more of an issue than the whole persian population combined, and it's very doubtful whether the region could have been kept subdued after he leaves for Dacia. At best, I could see Mesopotamia becoming a client kingdom and the Caucasus finally falling out of the persian sphere of influence for good, but that's it.
Now Dacia would have been a joke by comparison, so there's not much to say. Yet another region that would be more useful as a client kingdom than a province.
All this assuming Caesar avoids getting murdered due to regaining his wits and stops behaving like an overt tyrant. If he keeps acting like he did after coming back from Spain, he'd get rekt politically even if he manages to escape the first murder plot.

>couldn't even conquer Britain
He would get REKT in Parthia like his pal Crassus
>>
>>1173005
The fuck are you talking about? Islam was created 500 years after Julius' death
>>
>>1173399
I think he's implying a roman persia = no sassanids = no conflict that destroys byzantium's and persia's war capabilities right when the arabs chimpout.

Caesar was great at figuring out solutions to new problems on the go, like Alesia and crossing the Rhine, what would he have done to defeat the horse archer meme?
>>
>>1173409
to be honest if anything, latin presence in the iranian hearthland would have caused a butthurt even greater than the one that created the rise of the Sassanians.
>>
>>1171799
Would have probably ended up similar to Trajan, but probably without rejecting any province before Julius' death.
>>
>>1173692
>what would he have done to defeat the horse archer meme?
Likely the same thing the likes of Trajan, Avidius Cassius and Ventidius did.
It's not like the parthians were hard to defeat for the romans, the problem was more holding the land without having to station there half the imperial army.
>>
>>1173392
How could he have conquered britain? no one did until they had an established hold on gaul. Why risk the entirety of his conquests on an island he literally knew nothing about?

Crassus got wrecked because he got boxed in and fought under unfavorable conditions, something Caesar rarely did. I'm not saying Caesar would have won or not but comparing him to Crassus is an awkward juxtaposition because Crassus was an entirely different kind of military commander.
>>
>>1173721
that depends on whether or not the culture would have shifted to a more greeco-roman version of itself like in many other roman provinces or if it would have been a subjugated divided class like under the sassanids. Also by being a part of rome it would likely have fallen under the christian mega meme.
>>
>>1173740

Crassus was a businessman not a commander, we all know the story, but it's really odd how full retard he went, and even then, his army should have reacted a little better on it's own after he died.

Carrhae really shouldn't have happened.
>>
>>1173749
I seriously doubt it would have stayed roman long enough to become properly romanized (let alone become christian). Several generations of seleucid rule didn't really hellenize them.
>>
>>1173707
If caesar had lived a full life he'd have tied all lose end and left a rome that would never ever fall.
Of course, who knows what a full life means for someone as fantastically superhuman as caesar? his natural age might be 400 years
>>
>>1173731

Military settler colonies worked well for the Seleukids. I don't see why they couldn't have simply exported their federal model to allied satraps for local support.
