  2. "Soon after three of the largest states of Etruria, the cities of Volsinii, Perusia and Arretium, sued for peace, and after each paying an indemnity of 500,000 asses obtained truces for 40 years." – 4:27

    "Carvilius was ordered to invade Etruria. Here he captured Troilum as well as five forts. The Falisci sent a delegation to Carvukius suing for peace. They obtained a one-year truce in return for supplying a year's pay for Carvilius' soldiers as well as an indemnity of 100,000 asses. – 16:10

    That sure is a lot of ass to give?

  3. I am from Sorrento, south of Naples, about 265 km south of Rome and I am amazed to see that you guys are explaining those battles with such accuracy, names and last names as if they had just happened.
    Boy am I glad I was born more than 2000 years later.
    Thank you for your wonderful job.
    Your supporter.
