Spartacus did not have much of an impact on the Roman Empire. His figure was mythologised many centuries after the end of Roman civilisation by romantic intellectuals. We get minimal information about him from ancient Roman historians. He was one of the leaders (not the only leader) of the slave rebellion which has been called the Third Servile War (73-71 BC). The revolt scared the Romans, especially the senate. The slaves were successful for a couple of years against small forces of the Roman army and local militias and ravaged the countryside and pillaged a number of cities. However, it was finally suppressed by the deployment of a large amount of Roman troops. This was the biggest, but also the last slave rebellion in Roman history. Over time it got forgotten by the Romans.

The questions and answers previously given do not provide a reason for Rome's initial defeat by the army of Spartacus. The reason Rome lost the first encounter with Spartacus was Rome's expectation that Spartacus posed no serious threat and so the small force Rome sent to defeat Spartacus was defeated because Spartacus had 90,000 troops at his disposal.
