Gaius Marius reformed the old legions into a new professional legion which fought more effectively than the old ones and opened the recruiting process to the Plebian class. He also unified the legions by eliminating four out of the five symbols, leaving the Eagle as the single sign of the Roman legion. Gaius Marius was Consul seven times (107 BC, 104-100 BC, and 87 BC), defeated the Cimbri and Teutone in battle with his cohor system (revised military system), and prevented Saturninus and his mobs from ruling the streets of Rome.

Why did civil wars occur in the Rome during the first century?
Rome was facing a rebellion in Asia Minor that required Rome intervention. The people wanted Marius to lead the war but the senate chose Sulla, who had become a consul. As a result Sulla marched on Rome and declared Marius an outlaw. Marius left to Africa, and Sulla went to the east to deal with the rebellion. As soon as Sulla left for Asia, Marius and his supporters went to take control of Rome once again. Marius died in 86 BCE but his followers continued the battle to take control of Rome. In 82 B.C.E., on his way back from the east, Sulla marched in yet again with his army and the first civil war broke out. Hope this helps!
