Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, commonly known as Pompey, was a prominent Roman general and statesman during the late Roman Republic. He is famous for his military conquests in the East, including the defeat of Mithridates VI of Pontus and the expansion of Roman territory in the Mediterranean. Additionally, Pompey was a key figure in the First Triumvirate alongside Julius Caesar and Crassus. His rivalry with Caesar ultimately led to a civil war, culminating in his defeat and assassination in 48 BC.
