1. What specifically in the movie did you like? Dislike?

2. What proof, if any, did the movie claim to make about the founding of Rome and Aeneas?

3. What did the movie say about Octavian Augustas?

I liked the part that sould the time line. it had the Aeneid. he change his name to Augustas and was in the 2 triumferent 

I like the part with timeline talking about Caesar, Augustas, and Antony as well as a few others.This movie talked about the Aenied and how it is the story to the founding of Rome. The movie said that Augustus was in the second triumvirate. Then after Lepidus dropped out, he and Antony fought against each other and Augustus won. After this Octavian earned the title Augustus meaning revered one.

1. What specifically in the movie did you like? Dislike? I thought at first the entire video was in another language. The timeline was good but a lot to remember.

2. What proof, if any, did the movie claim to make about the founding of Rome and Aeneas? The two gates of war (Rome) were closed. Mercury reminds Aeneus he must return. After the 3rd Punic war Rome dominated.

3. What did the movie say about Octavian Augustas? Octavian Augustus accomplished peace. So great was the burden of founding Rome

1. In the movie, I liked the part where there was a timeline.  It showed all of the major events in Rome, so I understood everything that happened very well. I did not like how the video was nine minutes long and kept on throwing a lot of information at you. it was hard to remember, but the timeline helped me understand it.

2. The video talks about the Aeneid. First, the gates were closed. Then Mercury tells Aeneas that he has to go back to Rome. Later, the Punic wars occur and Rome wins it all.

3. Augustus lived in the second triumvirate. Lepidus drops out, so Anthony and Augustus fight for the title. Augustus won, so he became king and got the name Augustus.

Good post, but you only answered the first question.

1) I dislike this video with a burning passion. To me it was just a boring documentary.

2) The whole video was the proof. All that was in the video were practically facts and proof about the founding of Rome.

3) After uniting the armies in the civil war and after Anotny commited suicide Octavian was given the name Augustus which meant; The Revered One.

Good post, but you only answered the first question.

No, he does answer all questions, but it didn't look like it had much work in it because his second answer was only four words. It seems like you rushed.

1. This movie was very confusing at the start but then they showed the timline, that made my life much easier.All in all I did not like the movie because it was to confusing.

2. This movie said Jupiter said that the gates will first close then Mercury tells Agustas he has to leave carthage afterthe punic wars take place. There are three punic wars Rome wins the wars and Carthage is not a threat anymore.

3. This movie said that Anthony, Augustus, and Lepidus. Soon after Lepidus withdrew and then Anthony and Augustus battled. Augustus won so he became the next great ruler.

Niam I agree with what you said about your second post because that is what it says in the movie.

I agree that Lepidus dropped out and then Anthony and Augustus fought for the title.

I agree that it felt like the video was in another language at the start and i thought Mr. Vital gave us the wrong clip.

3. What did the movie say about Octavian Augustas?

1. I disliked the part in the beginning with the words being spoken in a different language, and having to read the English translations. I liked everything else about the movie.

2.The whole movie was proof about the founding of Rome and Aeneas. It had clips of the Aeneid. The movie was filled with different facts.

3. The movie said that Octavian Augustus was in the Second Triumvirate. After Lepidus dropped out, Antony and Octavian fought over who was going to be king. Octavian won, which gave him the name Augustus, meaning "revered one".
