Episode 15
Rome has lost four legions to the Cimbri. There is nothing standing in the way between Cimbri and the city of Rome. Panic spreads throughout the peninsula and an empire that had defeated Carthage now looks like it will crumble to a roaming tribe from the north. The senate and the Consul Rutilius Rufus have to scramble to save the Republic from collapsing. In today's episode we look at the Roman's response to the aftermath of the disaster at Arausio and discuss what happens to the Cimbri as they decide to move into Spain and try to set up a new home.
