I have. Particularly the Second Punic War, and Caesar's Gallic Campaigns. I'm rereading T.A. Dodge's 'Hannibal' now.Go back and study and see how the Romans did it
Them nikkas were the biggest (pause) dikk on the block (globe) for a very long time
Here's a quote describing the Romans: "Rome and all her officials were constantly on the outlook for opportunities for conquest; she always stuck her fingers in every pie, and never ceased to breed quarrels in order herself to benefit by eventual interference. She took sides with the weaker in order to weaken the stronger, and eventually to subdue both. Everything was justifiable which led to its end...Rome could be patient under adversity, and bide her time; but once at war, she carried on war with all her might; once victorious, her opponent was ground into the dust...It has been observed that the statecraft of heathen Rome, from the founding of the city till the fourth century A.D., and of Christian Rome, from the sixth century A.D till the present day, has always been the same - a Jesuitical statecraft, and a wonderfully able one."
when you study american history, and especially this situation with ukraine, this is it to a T.
