This version of spartacus missed all the sex scenes

Spartacus is without question one of the most badass people in history, imagine leading an army of 100,000 plus with that many overwhelming victories, with no supply lines, no equipment, compromised of slaves who spoke different languages and were united only by their hatred of Rome. That's some next level G shit right there.

It's been over 2000 years and we're still idolizing Spartacus and his rebellion. So strong was what his rebellion symbolized: fighting for freedom in the face of overwhelming odds and oppression, that we'll probably still be telling his story 2000 years from now. A group of slaves, immortalized by history. There's so few stories that are as epic.

Crassus: [defeats Spartacus and his army] Pompey: I have defeated Spartacus and his army! Crassus: That Egyptian-loving dog deserves a knife in the back. Ptolemy XIII: That's a great idea!

Crassus: “Would that you had been born a Roman and had stood beside me.” Spartacus: “Bless the fates that it was not so.”...

In the words of Count Dooku: *"I've been looking forward to this"*

Spartacus: I have done this thing because it is just. Blood demands blood. We have lived and lost at the whims of our masters for too long. I would not have it so. I would not see the passing of a brother, for the purpose of sport. I would not see another heart ripped from a chest, or breath forfeit for no cause. I know not all of you wish this, yet it is done. It is done. Your lives are your own. Forge your own path, or join with us, and together we shall see Rome tremble.

10:15 "Crassus was no stranger to warfare" Parthian: Doubt

Some slave: *I’m Spartacus!* Slave 2: *I’m Spartacus!* Slave 3: He’s Spartacus.

It’s interesting to see that Crassus was so cautious in dealing with Spartacus but was so bold as to be foolhardy when picking a fight with the Parthians.

Starz TV Series: Spartacus - Blood & Sand Spartacus - Gods of the Arena Spartacus - Vengence Spartacus - War of the Damned Have Fun!

"Spartacus... that is not my name. I shall finally hear it again, given voice by loving wife, in greeting long to form..."

Those freaking pirates could've been immortalized in history, instead they chose a few pieces of gold :/

Rome: *pErHaPs wE sHoULdnT tRaiN oUR sLavEs ThAt GoOd !*

In some alternate timeline, Spartacus made it home and became a diadoch worthy of Alexander's heritage

Crassus was killed years later at the Battle of Carrhae which is considered to be the worst defeat the Roman Republic experienced, Crassus after the battle was decapitated and had molten gold poured down his throat.

The entire Apennine became the "colosseum" for these Gladiator slaves to hunt or being hunted - yet this time they no longer fought for entertaining the audiences, but for FREEDOM！ Awesome animation, Kings and Generals. Your prolific works always impressed me, along with other series such as History Marche, Epic History, Baz Battles, Flash Point History...etc

Spartacus on Starz was so well done that it is the only series I can repeatedly watch. I sought documentaries out to figure what was real. He was truly impressive. It's nice to know that some of my favorites were real, though sad that they didn't enjoy their freedom without conflict.

The Starz Spartacus series was a lot more historically accurate than I assumed. 😳

" _This is where I want to be_ _And what they'll tell of me_ _I'm the slave who defied the Republic of Rome_ " Wind Rose - Spartacus

For the amount of drama shown in the STARZ TV show, it was surprisingly historically accurate.

"That man, he was all muscle"

My last name is Nucera,Nuceria is my family’s ancestral city , love seeing it on the map. 😃👍🏻

I just started re-watching Spartacus yesterday. So this video is well received 😎

Apart from the obvious changes that this rebellion brought to the Roman republic , It would be interesting to know at what extend this rebellion affected the Romans' perspective upon gladiators' recruit and training. Considering that only 70 or less gladiators managed to establish a rebellion by winning easily the first roman militia forces , we could assume that their fighting training was on a high level . Also , It is possible that most of the gladiators on this period had a battle experience as former soldiers who had been captured by the Romans during several wars. According to reliable historical sources and archaeological foundings , during the imperial period the gladiators were an elite class inside the slaves , gaining a great amount of money for their games in the arenas and being something like our nowadays football stars. Evenmore , It is known that the gladiatorial games during the imperial period had not a lethal purpose . In fact , only a 10% of the fighters were killed because of severe wounds and the dead gladiator's owner was receiving a compensation from the state for his loss . To all these above mentioned add the fact that gladiators served as special units in Roman army during this period in several occasions , epsecially on rebellions in the empire as an effective force in guerilla type warfare in exchange of land , political rights , even their freedom . So , these "military gladiators" were receiving an extra training of fighting to be capable in killing their opponents rather than just causing wounds to them as they did in the games . Taking all these into mind , we can safely assumed that this rebellion possibly changed once and for all the way that Romans were recruiting and training slaves to become gladiators . What is almost certain is that this rebellion changed the status of slavery in Roman society , forcing Romans to treat to their slaves with more care and interesting due to the fear of a new brutal rebellion. The vast numbers of slaves , eager to follow Spartacus to freedom , proves that leaving with their masters was unbearable. On the other hand , no major slave rebellion is mentioned in Roman history after this one and that could not be a result of fear but of social changes .

Wow. The part about his death made me cry. Imagining this rabble, freaking out because against all odds they managed to defeat legion after legion. And here, at the greatest battle of all, the force that made it all possible just vanishes. Those poor guys. Poor Spartacus.

Glory to Spartacus! Freedom is priceless

Spartacus shall always be a symbol of freedom

Richest man in Rome, helps to undermine the Republic. Fitting.

Finally! I ve been waiting for the third Servile war documentary

Damn, I really had no idea Spartacus lasted for 3 years and had such a huge army. What a stud

i've been waiting for this

I don’t think I’ve ever grown to admire a character as much as I have grown to admire Spartacus. Take a minute to ponder on the enormous legacy he left behind. A man who lived more than 2000 years ago and is still talked about. He refused to be treated in a manner akin to that of an animal; he believed that all human beings are worthy of respect, and that even slaves should be treated with kindness and compassion; had the Romans or any fortunate enough a human who was a master treated their subordinates with due respect, many wars would have been prevented. I hold to high regard his unwavering rejection of inhumane treatment and the shedding of blood for mere entertainment. Wherever you are right now Spartacus, rest assured your legacy still lives and that you are not lost down the memory lane 💙 - a fellow free soul 2000+ years later.

Spartacus TV SERIES is one of the best I've seen. And they try to be historically accurate, which makes it even more appealing

"In the last century, before the birth of the new-found faith Christianity..." RIP Kirk Douglas

Finally. Can't wait to be back from work to watch this.

As soon as I finish this semester, I promise to support your patreon. This is by far my favorite channel on youtube.

"i am Spartacus!" - Andy Whitfield :-(

This is the best explanation of the Triumvirate I've ever seen or read. Nice job with the conclusion here and how you guys threaded the connections. I hadn't fully connected the 3rd Servile war to the politics and tales of Caesar, or it's domino like influence on the fall of the Republic. Thanks.

Sensational work guys! Everything was just so well put together. The art, narration, music, all of it!

Love it. Also love the possibility that the idea of Spartacus being Thracian penned from his fighting type - The Thracian, and the man is still a massive mystery.

I can't get enough about the history of this man. Took on the greatest empire ever and made it tremble. He may not have made speeches like in the TV show but I love the idea he may have said that "so all men and women can live and die in freedom". Hey New Hampshire, he was the original live free or die guy. RIP, Spartacus from a fan more than 2000 years later.

What is it with Rome and trilogies

Oh yeah I’ve been waiting for this, Spartacus baby!

I absolutely love the mosaic background style of these series. It could be used more often when doing Roman history videos. Great improvement in quality since 1 year I´m following this channel

I know I’ve said this before but I have to say it again. Y’all do a fantastic job with the music, I think it’s one of the things that makes Kings and Generals stand out in my mind amongst the other history channels on RU-vid that cover similar content.

The quality of these videos just keeps getting better - astounding!

Crasus sounds like the tipical villain of a movie who kills his thugs just because they failed, its almost a cliche personified

In the words of Spartacus "Whatever happens, it happens because we choose for it. We decide our fates, not you, not the Romans... Not even the gods!" Plutarch, Appian and Florius all claim Spartacus died but his body was never found, so I assumed he was killed as you have stated trying to get to Crassus, or he was wounded and died of those or he went missing.

A long awaited series finally. Thankyou so much

Don't know if you guys will see this but you're videos on Roman history is what inspired my dissertation on the Marian reforms just wanted to say thanks for making awesome video's that helped me to keep my passion for history through many hard years at uni

One can only imagine what would have happened if those fucking Pirates held true to their word. And Spartacus killing his horse was fucking badass O,o

Great! Been waiting for this😃

I’ve been waiting for this for so looooong

Really glad to see Paradox sponsoring you guys.... one of my favorite companies sponsoring one of my favorite channels is a win-win.

Love the topic of the Servile Wars! Spartacus was quite the heroic figure! Amazingly, he defeated consular armies 3 times! If he'd have turned northward at that point, history as we know it might be radically different.

The part where he made 300 Roman's fight to the death to honor crexus's death was always my favorite part

Absolutely LOVE the new art-style. Thank you for this incredible quality

Music and storytelling perfect. Thanks a lot!

Lets train the slaves to become killing machines! How could this go wrong lol? edit: i just drew a cute squirrel if anyone wants to check it out :3 (or dont, its pretty mediocre lmao)

- Who is Spartacus? + Im Spartacus! ~ No, im Spartacus! - My wife and I are Spartacus!

Yessssss I was waiting for this! Thanksss!!

I've been waiting for this episode for a long time man

The quality of these videos is so professional and well put together, reminds me of the early days of the channel and its cool to see how far you have all come :)

I ve been sitting by the phone my friends. How long have i been waiting for this episode .

Love your videos mate keep it up you inspired me by making me so interested about history especially greek and roman thanks love your channel

Gratitude for the video I've been waiting for this one

Imagine how desperate Spartacus must have been to try to make a truce with Crassus. It's way too late for that man, you scared the crap out of the Senate and they weren't going to forget it

After the episodes on the first two Servile Wars I was wondering when this one would come up - and sure enough it was this day.

YES!!!! I have been waiting for so long to see this

Finally, been waiting for this one.

*I am Sparticvs.*

I've been waiting for this video for SO long. And it was worth the wait. So, when is Caesar's civil war coming? :)

Took u long enough thankyou guys been looking forward to this for a long time

The decline years of the republic are by far the most interesting to me. I just love these vids! :D

As Voltaire called it: "a just war, indeed the only just war in history."

One of my absolute favorites in history! It feels like my Birthday, thank you Kings and Generals!

4 seasons of a show to go through this, and this mad lad goes through it in 20 minutes

Finally!! I've been waiting :)

It took two consoles and three generals to stop this man dear God imagine if he 1v1 Caesar.

I love the Spartacus Rebellion such a fascinating event and some early effective forms of Guerrilla Warfare. As always great vid KG keep up the good work guys nearly 1.1 million subs great stuff well deserved.

Yesss, I've been waiting

Yessss, looking forward to this

Dooku voice, "I've been looking forward to this."

IF the Pirate's name is not *JACK SPARROW* then Dont trust him

Amazing documentary! Very well made.

Yes been waiting for this after seeing part 1

This entire story is so compelling. Very well done!

Rest in peace, Kirk Douglas & Andrew Whitfield.

Hey, wednesday is filled with K&G video for usual Thursday and Sunday in my place. Is this the sign of 3 videos per week? Love it

It would be glorious to be able to observe these battles. Wish there was a way to look back in time.

Literally one of the best channels that shows history, very unbiased and rely on facts, the commentary of course is on another level, keep it up!

MEMENTO GLADIATORES MEMENTO SPARTACVS ET MEMENTO TERTIVM BELLVM SERVILE

This video keeps coming on my feed, I have watched it maybe 20 times already, and will keep doing it, slaves uprising stories are just so amazing

I'm going to name my son Spartacus...the man who fought an empire for freedom.

“He's free.. He’s free, and he will remember you Spartacus because I will tell him, I will tell who his father was and what he dreamed of!” Spartacus 1960

Thank you. Always look forward to your content. I've fallen behind on the podcast, but look forward to the Mongol series.

Good Stuff Bro! ⚔️

Spartacus be like "I am the senate"
