Historical background


RUTILIA

(77 BC)

The year 77 is fertile in events. Catullus and Pompey crush Lepidus, who dies in Sardinia. Caesar sues Dolabella for extortion. In Spain, the revolt of Sertorius achieves several successes and he is joined by Perpena. Pompey, sent to Spain to put down the rebellion, takes the opportunity to crush a sedition in Transalpine Gaul.
