During Septimius Severus's campaign to conquer Caledonia (Scotland), his son Caracalla was the second in command of the army and his other son, Geta, had administrative duties. Septimius Severus had taken the Southern Uplands and the Central Lowlands and was preparing to conquer the Highlands and wanted to exterminate the Caledonians. However, he fell ill and died. The troops proclaimed both Caracalla and Geta emperors. Caracalla abandoned the military campaign and both brothers returned to Rome. This was because both brothers wanted to be sole emperor and both wanted to concentrate on this power struggle in Rome. Caracalla tried to murder Geta at a festival of the Saturnalia (17 December) and later in that month he got the imperial guard to kill him.

How do you join the crusade in medieval total war 2?

Get an army, move it out of a settlement so it is on the game map. Right click on the general (you may have to have a family member leading the army) and there will be a small button towards the bottom that says "join crusade." Click that, and if you have a big enough army they will join the Crusade.


Why was the Western front called a stalemate?

The Western Front is generally considered a stalemate because of Trench Warfare. The line separating Allied Territory and Entente territory did not move much at all during the whole war. This is because both sides stayed in their trenches and if they advanced, they were pushed back quickly


How far did the roman army walk?

Probably about the same as modern armies can walk today if walking becomes necessary. I would estimate between ten and twenty miles/kilometers average, but several factors were involved such as the type of terrain and the weather. Then as today, an army could usually make better time on a road than cross country, but as their supply trains (wagons and/or pack animals) moved slowly it was not necessary for armies to move too fast when traveling.

How did diocletian try to reverse the decline of rome?

Diocletian first pushed back the Sassanids and the Germans. Then he ended the revolts. Then he tried to solve the problem of the civil wars between the two halves of the army. Diocletian worked out a system where there would always be two Emperors, and each of these Emperors would have two assistants. This system is called the Tetrarchy (rule of four). When one of the Emperors died, his assistant would move up to being Emperor, and choose a new assistant.
