Why did boudiccas revolt fail?

Even though the Romans were outnumbered by Boudicca's army (of about 145,000), the British rebels were in complete disarray. The Roman army (of around 10,000) was in strong formation and the Romans were amazing fighters.

The revolt failed because the Romans were just too powerful and strong for Boudicca's army. The Romans also positioned themselves on a hill, and so they had the advantage of positioning themselves up high.

In a way, the revolt succeeded because after Boudicca's death (she took poison in the battle) the Romans realised they had to treat the Britons better, otherwise there might be another rebellion.

The reason the Romans were so worried of another rebellion was because a lot of Romans had died before the final battle, and many Roman buildings had been destroyed or burnt.

How many Romans died during Boudiccas revolt?

During Boudicca's revolt in 60-61 AD, it is estimated that approximately 70,000 to 80,000 Romans and their allies died. The revolt was marked by the destruction of several Roman settlements, including Londinium (London), and significant loss of life occurred among both the Roman military and local populations. However, exact numbers are difficult to determine due to the lack of comprehensive records from that time.
