battles/campaigns the romans almost fought

Recommended Posts

I've been considering doing an article on battles and campaigns the romans almost fought. for example caesar was planning a parthian campaign before his assassination; Agricola wanted to invade Ireland, Nero Sudan; and I believe Julian the Apostate was planning to invade Sassanid Persia.

any other ideas?

Augustus had some plans to take control (probably) over Arabia Felix (modern Yemen), but troops that were sent there, weren't very successful. Actually they were defeated. After this Augustus focused on other parts of borders.

 

 

Julian the Apostate was planning to invade Sassanid Persia.

 

Julian really invaded to Persia, but underestimated the situation and his campaign failed.
