How do you think the history of Roman would have been different if Spartacus had succeeded in crossing the alps?

First of all it is not sure whether Spartacus and his followers wanted to cross the Alps to reach Gaul. This is an interpretation which was suggested by Plutarch, while Appian and Florus thought that he intended to march on Rome. However, it is more likely that the rebels were just trying to escape the Roman army and were plundering Italy to feed themselves. Moreover, they could not continue their rebellion for long. Once the Romans gathered a sufficient number of legions to suppress the rebellion, they had military superiority. Assuming that Spartacus did want to cross the Alps and managed to do so he might have continued to plunder the countryside until his defeat by the Roman army there, or he might have tried to get the local slaves to join his rebellion. However, there were much fewer slaves there than in Italy. In this case, it is also highly likely that he would have been eventually defeated.
