The temporary status of Tiberius and Jerusalem's heir's parent became clear once Agrippa and Julia's new family began to grow. | <0>90<0>2775<0>2070<0>2176<0>253<0>253<0>3020<0>3318<0>1228<0>2750<0>4010<0>1114<0>4044<0>234<0>3136<0>2001<0>1284<0>3031<0>3828<0>78<0>2566<0>3123<0>2176<0>1901<0>1339<0>2592<0>2560<0>2775<0>2597<0>2989<0>2181<0>2903<0>1748<0>959<0>2181<0>2181<0>3307<0>1989<0>3599<0>1511<0>3973<0>1858<0>1710<0>546<0>3297<0>321<0>2176<... |
After marrying his best friend to his only daughter in 21 BC, Augustus kept a close eye on the new couple, hoping they would produce a long-term solution to his dynastic problems. | <0>2802<0>3695<0>3935<0>3067<0>3663<0>3663<0>623<0>1532<0>135<0>2700<0>2181<0>3904<0>3166<0>1370<0>1969<0>1394<0>1512<0>1126<0>1296<0>633<0>1394<0>2513<0>321<0>321<0>1370<0>2675<0>3253<0>3786<0>3918<0>2092<0>724<0>2566<0>753<0>3670<0>2713<0>785<0>2207<0>1236<0>3237<0>3237<0>2521<0>2640<0>2239<0>3809<0>779<0>2956<0>2016... |
It did not take long for Augustus to be greeted with the happy news that Julia had given birth to a son, Gaius, in 20 BC. | <0>2695<0>277<0>300<0>1858<0>3135<0>3438<0>1097<0>192<0>3786<0>321<0>614<0>2338<0>1370<0>1284<0>1820<0>3318<0>2903<0>805<0>3310<0>3123<0>3392<0>165<0>3108<0>756<0>2960<0>1277<0>2592<0>3763<0>1192<0>1675<0>2960<0>3123<0>633<0>234<0>2406<0>2370<0>1368<0>3129<0>3626<0>2729<0>192<0>2020<0>1512<0>3125<0>1185<0>648<0>3183<0>... |
More good news followed as the marriage of Agrippa and Julia proved to be a fertile one. And year after year, they produced child after child. | <0>2626<0>2146<0>2541<0>1119<0>300<0>2088<0>3253<0>277<0>3448<0>5<0>1370<0>321<0>321<0>2176<0>1277<0>3898<0>305<0>590<0>3235<0>2876<0>1671<0>2181<0>3135<0>623<0>3253<0>2054<0>1973<0>2181<0>2176<0>2067<0>3606<0>2637<0>3111<0>3626<0>1394<0>3988<0>2239<0>2176<0>3253<0>2176<0>234<0>1277<0>1394<0>2338<0>326<0>3982<0>2020<0>... |
Three years later, Agrippina the Elder was born, followed in 12 BC by the final son, Agrippa Postumus, so named because he was born after the unfortunate early death of his father, which we will get to in a moment. | <0>1278<0>492<0>192<0>192<0>277<0>2550<0>1512<0>941<0>3348<0>1989<0>3726<0>3726<0>2754<0>1242<0>507<0>2020<0>2020<0>1394<0>135<0>1394<0>192<0>321<0>3786<0>2176<0>3888<0>2406<0>1108<0>132<0>443<0>1748<0>3237<0>3237<0>3237<0>3237<0>2239<0>327<0>3701<0>321<0>1512<0>633<0>1935<0>321<0>4010<0>2339<0>1074<0>338<0>3060<0>1855... |
In addition to this week's maps, which highlights the Danube provinces secured during the period, I've also posted a family tree of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. | <0>2405<0>2070<0>632<0>1306<0>3713<0>2070<0>2070<0>3873<0>3291<0>3551<0>1512<0>686<0>1545<0>3918<0>2181<0>321<0>2176<0>3022<0>3003<0>3237<0>1278<0>3029<0>3318<0>1213<0>628<0>2796<0>2181<0>3904<0>2876<0>135<0>700<0>2400<0>1396<0>3177<0>1376<0>1480<0>2697<0>321<0>234<0>2903<0>135<0>454<0>2030<0>5<0>1635<0>492<0>3629<0>21... |
They're a tricky bunch to keep track of because not only do they share about three total names between the whole lot of them. So which agri-puner are we talking about again? There was also some pretty heavy intermarriage going on. So I hope the family tree will help you sort everyone out. | <0>4058<0>2070<0>2196<0>3472<0>3725<0>3277<0>1206<0>4088<0>235<0>2857<0>3378<0>2116<0>3007<0>1873<0>321<0>1820<0>1442<0>1168<0>3918<0>1219<0>290<0>3726<0>1378<0>548<0>3873<0>235<0>1503<0>321<0>2020<0>1394<0>3626<0>3626<0>2451<0>2704<0>2668<0>3828<0>2339<0>58<0>771<0>3043<0>1285<0>2054<0>3670<0>1919<0>2947<0>4010<0>2092... |
Keep it handy, because it should be good for about 80 more years. | <0>3726<0>2116<0>546<0>2152<0>2294<0>108<0>2486<0>1259<0>135<0>290<0>75<0>3022<0>426<0>90<0>3076<0>3291<0>1671<0>1394<0>3808<0>1738<0>2649<0>1370<0>614<0>58<0>1675<0>2945<0>1394<0>1394<0>3123<0>1289<0>2054<0>1394<0>3305<0>3898<0>1824<0>234<0>3981<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>3... |
As I was saying though, the birth of Gaius and Lucius immediately put a sell-by date on Tiberius and Drusus. | <0>1867<0>2070<0>2151<0>3840<0>2993<0>3291<0>277<0>1259<0>774<0>614<0>2178<0>3762<0>2700<0>2034<0>1846<0>2510<0>193<0>3974<0>1671<0>1204<0>2067<0>1419<0>2020<0>3918<0>2020<0>1512<0>408<0>1118<0>579<0>3058<0>2566<0>1277<0>2408<0>1394<0>1962<0>2020<0>963<0>1762<0>3873<0>73<0>4044<0>1370<0>2339<0>321<0>3108<0>515<0>1168<0... |
In a highly irregular move, Augustus decided to adopt the boys when they were still infants, bring them into his household and raise them himself. | <0>670<0>300<0>1099<0>628<0>2084<0>2020<0>192<0>321<0>2181<0>2207<0>3918<0>1289<0>3918<0>2176<0>2176<0>2700<0>2278<0>2680<0>2239<0>235<0>3131<0>2070<0>2325<0>1710<0>349<0>3904<0>253<0>253<0>1394<0>234<0>492<0>918<0>1820<0>321<0>998<0>1579<0>2339<0>1762<0>805<0>614<0>3918<0>3786<0>1855<0>1278<0>2176<0>3786<0>2100<0>724<... |
There was simply too much at stake not to involve himself in every aspect of their lives and education. One of them was destined to sit on the throne. Augustus needed to make sure that they would be ready. | <0>2669<0>3067<0>193<0>3642<0>3642<0>1206<0>102<0>1858<0>1671<0>2181<0>1339<0>2637<0>2143<0>1300<0>90<0>2975<0>3392<0>3726<0>2239<0>1394<0>321<0>2649<0>2176<0>2176<0>3168<0>3970<0>3982<0>724<0>234<0>5<0>1488<0>3786<0>290<0>2400<0>2054<0>2176<0>3681<0>3069<0>1503<0>1074<0>3122<0>3237<0>234<0>2566<0>2054<0>3918<0>2054<0>... |
But just because there was a planned obsolescence now built into Tiberius and Jerusalem, that did not mean that Augustus could simply ignore them. | <0>1031<0>3809<0>193<0>2196<0>2705<0>538<0>3695<0>2543<0>63<0>253<0>3701<0>1935<0>998<0>2339<0>2975<0>1097<0>234<0>443<0>321<0>3786<0>254<0>3898<0>3786<0>2947<0>4044<0>135<0>3609<0>3609<0>2181<0>614<0>1376<0>4010<0>2176<0>2020<0>1768<0>515<0>1362<0>724<0>1376<0>235<0>3305<0>785<0>1236<0>1688<0>3786<0>2339<0>3618<0>1118... |
It would be 20 years or more before Gaius and Lucius could even begin the process of establishing public lives for themselves. | <0>3068<0>2070<0>584<0>3297<0>1206<0>3344<0>3898<0>3135<0>3194<0>3194<0>1901<0>4072<0>2796<0>2697<0>2092<0>68<0>321<0>443<0>2899<0>2700<0>348<0>2665<0>1484<0>1370<0>3097<0>1820<0>321<0>231<0>4044<0>234<0>1259<0>2592<0>1671<0>3458<0>866<0>2406<0>725<0>3762<0>947<0>2506<0>1512<0>2092<0>2960<0>3003<0>3613<0>309<0>1168<0>6... |
Tiberius and Jerusalem were ready now, and with all the illnesses that had felled him over the years, Augustus knew that lasting the twenty years before his grandsons would be ready to take over was a dicey prospect at best. | <0>2281<0>2182<0>2750<0>3618<0>3302<0>4010<0>3175<0>317<0>2092<0>2067<0>2181<0>277<0>3609<0>2349<0>349<0>443<0>443<0>3786<0>2339<0>321<0>3111<0>2960<0>2675<0>3302<0>300<0>1192<0>2548<0>3003<0>3237<0>1108<0>1950<0>933<0>3253<0>2020<0>3543<0>288<0>3982<0>2020<0>2329<0>1296<0>2566<0>2020<0>3729<0>3224<0>135<0>2665<0>135<0... |
Plus, the ancient world being what it was, there was no guarantee that Gaius and Lucius would even survive childhood. It was best to keep as many irons in the fire as possible. | <0>1488<0>321<0>3449<0>2857<0>4037<0>3179<0>1508<0>3758<0>1754<0>785<0>724<0>1834<0>3786<0>1289<0>405<0>3123<0>1394<0>2675<0>774<0>614<0>2566<0>4010<0>4010<0>3117<0>2646<0>2700<0>1287<0>3179<0>2020<0>2339<0>2020<0>309<0>1370<0>3609<0>3963<0>1738<0>3873<0>249<0>633<0>2207<0>3477<0>1820<0>2001<0>3904<0>2020<0>3918<0>1512... |
So on the off chance that either Tiberius or Druces was indeed destined to succeed him to the throne, Augustus made sure that everything stayed in the tight family he was building. | <0>3279<0>3401<0>2541<0>3758<0>1846<0>1981<0>2594<0>930<0>4023<0>2016<0>2775<0>2551<0>1820<0>2020<0>2176<0>504<0>3963<0>1376<0>2341<0>235<0>3574<0>5<0>2665<0>288<0>1370<0>253<0>2176<0>2876<0>3626<0>2566<0>3977<0>4010<0>4010<0>633<0>3123<0>1394<0>3353<0>3353<0>2665<0>235<0>296<0>724<0>2538<0>73<0>1208<0>388<0>1486<0>369... |
So in 19 BC, he had Tiberius marry Vipsania, the daughter of Marcus Agrippa by his first wife, and not long after, Drusus married Antonia, the daughter of Augustus' sister Octavia, and, ironically enough, Mark Antony. | <0>4012<0>1157<0>1671<0>3663<0>3776<0>793<0>1394<0>2960<0>3670<0>2029<0>4044<0>1394<0>338<0>3003<0>3237<0>3179<0>3466<0>793<0>1624<0>2020<0>296<0>3663<0>3297<0>3003<0>243<0>3305<0>1394<0>3873<0>2054<0>2181<0>3574<0>3697<0>614<0>2369<0>4044<0>321<0>1370<0>1394<0>633<0>1748<0>3466<0>3726<0>3626<0>2592<0>618<0>321<0>1370<... |
Both marriages were happy ones, though in the case of Tiberius, it was this very happiness that would open up a rift with Augustus that would be the hallmark of their future relationship with each other. | <0>2681<0>1007<0>611<0>2070<0>2070<0>546<0>3904<0>2550<0>1484<0>30<0>54<0>3153<0>2092<0>1488<0>724<0>2116<0>3237<0>3237<0>2239<0>235<0>2020<0>2020<0>3873<0>1987<0>3280<0>3904<0>2700<0>89<0>3389<0>1376<0>909<0>235<0>2991<0>1467<0>3237<0>3179<0>1958<0>970<0>492<0>1118<0>135<0>3873<0>2038<0>2181<0>941<0>3462<0>1192<0>321<... |
One of his generals in Gaul lost a minor battle to some Germanic tribes. Rather than letting the incident pass without notice. | <0>2842<0>1484<0>2196<0>3176<0>3904<0>785<0>3302<0>235<0>774<0>2339<0>2592<0>3123<0>234<0>4010<0>3962<0>68<0>2566<0>253<0>321<0>254<0>1370<0>2054<0>54<0>2416<0>2339<0>443<0>1192<0>771<0>4088<0>234<0>1355<0>1762<0>2088<0>113<0>2178<0>2393<0>1982<0>1834<0>1723<0>3403<0>321<0>58<0>234<0>3873<0>1376<0>3237<0>3237<0>3237<0>... |

Just as is the case with most every civilized country across history, Rome never just declared war. | <0>1919<0>2070<0>3160<0>824<0>2543<0>3904<0>3253<0>3253<0>90<0>426<0>2329<0>3551<0>2176<0>2566<0>3918<0>805<0>3609<0>2181<0>507<0>1175<0>4044<0>2020<0>507<0>321<0>321<0>4072<0>326<0>135<0>3243<0>4028<0>3305<0>1219<0>321<0>2697<0>4044<0>2660<0>1118<0>2143<0>235<0>2991<0>2395<0>3726<0>3726<0>3237<0>405<0>1007<0>2510<0>19... |

It was very important to the Romans' sense of themselves that they only entered into just wars of self-defense. | <0>3194<0>2070<0>782<0>1309<0>3663<0>807<0>3642<0>1108<0>666<0>321<0>3123<0>2034<0>2176<0>3786<0>321<0>2092<0>724<0>504<0>239<0>3778<0>2020<0>2592<0>2566<0>3918<0>2404<0>3609<0>1488<0>2898<0>3310<0>2640<0>2018<0>2020<0>2020<0>3182<0>3543<0>2975<0>866<0>2023<0>3468<0>1768<0>1168<0>3123<0>3123<0>290<0>3237<0>2562<0>3963<... |
In theory, this meant that they were always on strong moral footing when they marched off to war. But in practice, this meant that they simply seized on the flimsiest pretext to launch a campaign. Now, Augustus had his flimsy pretext. | <0>1508<0>243<0>1376<0>1685<0>623<0>3988<0>493<0>1688<0>3123<0>317<0>3873<0>4072<0>648<0>120<0>235<0>321<0>3543<0>618<0>2752<0>4072<0>2020<0>2393<0>388<0>1855<0>3982<0>3982<0>774<0>3918<0>2548<0>2548<0>1488<0>1301<0>507<0>1503<0>2960<0>3973<0>2239<0>2566<0>724<0>3224<0>3168<0>321<0>156<0>1164<0>1819<0>5<0>2092<0>2092<0... |

In the single summer of 15 BC, the two brothers ruthlessly prosecuted a war of pacification against the tribes living there. The causes bellae for the invasion, I should note, was some reported ill treatment of Roman citizens passing through the territory. Flimsy pretexts.

Rather than being satisfied with simply beating the tribes on the battlefield and turning them into taxpayers, the two brothers decided that the best way to ensure the mountainous region remained safe for Roman travelers was to initiate a mass deportation of the men. | <0>2548<0>4009<0>2151<0>2070<0>2152<0>623<0>623<0>1654<0>1607<0>1969<0>253<0>73<0>2898<0>2181<0>2566<0>805<0>1228<0>3224<0>2566<0>1671<0>1376<0>3574<0>1394<0>3574<0>1277<0>2595<0>321<0>2181<0>5<0>3918<0>234<0>3786<0>1820<0>3962<0>2339<0>1219<0>3918<0>614<0>3726<0>2566<0>135<0>3982<0>321<0>277<0>633<0>3918<0>724<0>2116<... |

The tribes there had been friends of Rome since at least 170 BC, and had actually been important allies of Julius Caesar during his civil wars against the Senate. | <0>2663<0>3465<0>2541<0>2735<0>2769<0>3438<0>3185<0>3642<0>3297<0>2185<0>1552<0>628<0>4072<0>3609<0>2181<0>507<0>2181<0>3918<0>63<0>3873<0>2592<0>1259<0>1394<0>1378<0>326<0>3786<0>774<0>3609<0>1624<0>2181<0>2566<0>2960<0>3670<0>1376<0>3670<0>785<0>4044<0>1394<0>3125<0>1376<0>3237<0>3237<0>3726<0>1489<0>4084<0>3068<0>32... |

The fiercely independent Pannonian tribes could barely stand unofficial servitude, so there was no way they were going to be able to stand official servitude. | <0>5<0>1618<0>3695<0>807<0>3840<0>3287<0>2294<0>1394<0>234<0>3661<0>3598<0>2627<0>3626<0>1376<0>1982<0>1168<0>3786<0>1394<0>633<0>3887<0>2756<0>3403<0>321<0>3918<0>2105<0>3179<0>2683<0>3052<0>1118<0>234<0>3031<0>2505<0>1394<0>73<0>750<0>4072<0>3117<0>1203<0>724<0>1168<0>2178<0>2116<0>2467<0>3786<0>2223<0>2649<0>2020<0>... |

Because not only were they predisposed to standing apart from Rome, they were also predisposed to standing apart from each other. | <0>465<0>3397<0>277<0>2020<0>628<0>774<0>2020<0>1512<0>2511<0>250<0>4058<0>3052<0>3574<0>2637<0>1118<0>234<0>2176<0>234<0>2406<0>3378<0>1278<0>2937<0>724<0>3918<0>1649<0>1488<0>1370<0>1219<0>1222<0>2566<0>774<0>1762<0>614<0>2566<0>3726<0>3237<0>924<0>2239<0>235<0>1289<0>3982<0>3982<0>2413<0>2176<0>771<0>2505<0>3337<0>7... |
unable to establish a united front, the tribes were easily picked off one by one. | <0>3164<0>1503<0>3291<0>1512<0>2181<0>2176<0>805<0>63<0>2260<0>321<0>507<0>1316<0>1394<0>3670<0>633<0>2181<0>1394<0>2338<0>2338<0>1680<0>2178<0>2239<0>3237<0>3466<0>1958<0>1376<0>3626<0>2756<0>1820<0>277<0>2775<0>1056<0>1671<0>1394<0>2020<0>3626<0>1376<0>983<0>3237<0>321<0>1289<0>3151<0>2566<0>1762<0>2980<0>58<0>1762<0... |

In 13 BC, the 29 year old Tiberius served his consul for the first time. | <0>1768<0>3626<0>2070<0>1020<0>546<0>3194<0>2960<0>3111<0>785<0>4044<0>1655<0>2100<0>3726<0>3726<0>3726<0>234<0>805<0>2541<0>546<0>3663<0>1309<0>1394<0>2975<0>1819<0>63<0>628<0>4072<0>2960<0>235<0>3305<0>2506<0>1824<0>1064<0>2176<0>1671<0>326<0>1973<0>321<0>614<0>3609<0>68<0>1219<0>3918<0>1442<0>5<0>1370<0>3993<0>2705<... |

The one concession Augustus had allowed Lepidus when the latter left the public stage was allowing him to remain as Pontifex Maximus, an office he had held since the death of Julius Caesar. | <0>2566<0>300<0>2550<0>3642<0>3642<0>3176<0>2762<0>1607<0>3834<0>862<0>3253<0>77<0>1086<0>321<0>4044<0>2903<0>3904<0>321<0>2949<0>2181<0>321<0>1512<0>3786<0>2181<0>1277<0>724<0>2016<0>2566<0>1277<0>2566<0>1512<0>1736<0>235<0>4088<0>2092<0>1503<0>5<0>2566<0>724<0>614<0>234<0>2857<0>2143<0>1396<0>1396<0>765<0>3003<0>3237... |
Now, the princeps was the official head of all three branches of Roman public life, the church, the state, and the military. | <0>3466<0>243<0>235<0>2176<0>614<0>390<0>2987<0>2239<0>2700<0>196<0>1488<0>2393<0>1300<0>2876<0>1738<0>90<0>2700<0>3018<0>3027<0>2176<0>135<0>3175<0>1300<0>3841<0>2454<0>2020<0>3041<0>1097<0>724<0>1219<0>443<0>3982<0>3982<0>68<0>180<0>2176<0>587<0>2339<0>321<0>1966<0>3609<0>3873<0>1442<0>774<0>321<0>2675<0>234<0>871<0>... |
At the end of the year, with operations in Pannonia going well, but not perfectly. | <0>1500<0>2775<0>1011<0>1685<0>546<0>3253<0>3353<0>506<0>3898<0>614<0>3803<0>1376<0>3466<0>2975<0>3834<0>3962<0>1883<0>321<0>2181<0>3574<0>862<0>135<0>277<0>1277<0>426<0>1394<0>2020<0>1394<0>192<0>2006<0>321<0>2566<0>3140<0>3786<0>235<0>321<0>614<0>234<0>724<0>1762<0>614<0>1734<0>2176<0>3609<0>1406<0>4088<0>3606<0>3003... |
Augustus sent in Marcus Agrippa to bring the annexation to a speedy conclusion. | <0>443<0>3150<0>546<0>3185<0>538<0>2152<0>3927<0>2975<0>309<0>1671<0>618<0>1370<0>73<0>3904<0>196<0>3786<0>2181<0>998<0>321<0>90<0>234<0>1370<0>3574<0>1394<0>3690<0>1394<0>2395<0>3123<0>2038<0>633<0>3574<0>299<0>1688<0>614<0>2016<0>1545<0>196<0>3670<0>3153<0>2182<0>614<0>1370<0>2020<0>1512<0>3715<0>3918<0>3003<0>602<1>... |
Suffering from a number of nagging ailments, Agrippa caught sick and was forced to return home in March of 12 BC. But landing in Brundisium, he took a turn for the worse. Messengers raced to Rome to deliver the news to Augustus, who dropped what he was doing and rushed to Brundisium. But by the time he got there, it w... | <0>3071<0>538<0>2151<0>1846<0>2070<0>3598<0>1503<0>3918<0>3606<0>4072<0>235<0>1370<0>321<0>3918<0>941<0>47<0>3392<0>2960<0>3183<0>3670<0>2020<0>2566<0>2566<0>3029<0>948<0>1989<0>1538<0>725<0>2239<0>1442<0>628<0>321<0>1734<0>1370<0>321<0>5<0>73<0>3904<0>2408<0>2018<0>3097<0>3466<0>2566<0>633<0>3224<0>1023<0>3543<0>2181<... |
Agrippa was basically the reason Augustus had gotten anywhere in life. | <0>2669<0>3404<0>2510<0>1846<0>1846<0>1512<0>135<0>1512<0>700<0>3904<0>3165<0>135<0>1394<0>365<0>1394<0>3353<0>2960<0>1762<0>3574<0>2509<0>2566<0>3123<0>945<0>1111<0>326<0>90<0>3041<0>1277<0>947<0>2895<0>1277<0>970<0>3105<0>633<0>614<0>58<0>3426<0>1289<0>724<0>2393<0>2669<0>3981<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>398... |
The inherited name of Julius Caesar was obviously the catalyst for his rise, and the savvy advice of Messinus helped him pick his way through the treacherous world of Roman politics. | <0>3088<0>2070<0>3194<0>280<0>253<0>628<0>1394<0>1394<0>192<0>3918<0>3918<0>3436<0>1394<0>3626<0>3125<0>1339<0>3364<0>3670<0>942<0>3528<0>2700<0>4019<0>2020<0>3235<0>321<0>1512<0>3175<0>63<0>1512<0>1394<0>3629<0>151<0>3675<0>321<0>3786<0>2592<0>858<0>2020<0>1329<0>3125<0>3786<0>1488<0>1488<0>2020<0>5<0>3237<0>3237<0>33... |
But it would all have been for naught without victories on the battlefield. | <0>3615<0>2196<0>1007<0>2541<0>2865<0>2541<0>3840<0>2566<0>1394<0>2116<0>507<0>3918<0>1277<0>321<0>1734<0>614<0>2092<0>66<0>443<0>3123<0>243<0>3147<0>1512<0>3177<0>2055<0>1222<0>3918<0>2700<0>2458<0>321<0>545<0>1488<0>1074<0>3918<0>614<0>998<1>2014<1>3080<1>1555<1>3925<1>1504<1>1771<1>1652<1>3456<1>3442<1>3442<1>1614<1... |
And all of Augustus's most important victories against first Sextus Pompey and then Mark Antony had been won by Agrippa. | <0>3726<0>300<0>2700<0>3982<0>3982<0>3982<0>2176<0>234<0>3411<0>1370<0>1023<0>1339<0>90<0>234<0>3918<0>2176<0>349<0>2092<0>2566<0>1488<0>3786<0>1277<0>196<0>3299<0>2154<0>3918<0>3024<0>589<0>3237<0>3726<0>4019<0>1153<0>756<0>4072<0>3609<0>1301<0>2020<0>1830<0>4044<0>1214<0>1132<0>2182<0>3378<0>1488<0>1488<0>321<0>2566<... |
The death of the great general at age 51 was a harsh reminder that while he was now all powerful, Augustus never really had been able to do it alone. | <0>835<0>3626<0>901<0>2070<0>2020<0>2020<0>2176<0>507<0>3963<0>2100<0>1363<0>2001<0>2416<0>1289<0>2176<0>3466<0>633<0>1394<0>2404<0>3609<0>426<0>90<0>1671<0>2339<0>2535<0>2980<0>1376<0>3237<0>2700<0>390<0>443<0>2550<0>562<0>705<0>3982<0>300<0>2487<0>1192<0>2054<0>321<0>1168<0>235<0>2663<0>3179<0>771<0>4007<0>3135<0>401... |
The question of what would happen the next time a key military victory was required must have weighed heavy on Augustus's mind. | <0>2675<0>484<0>3135<0>1232<0>838<0>984<0>492<0>1074<0>321<0>507<0>2419<0>1827<0>1370<0>724<0>1982<0>1236<0>1396<0>277<0>1221<0>1578<0>1370<0>3918<0>196<0>3310<0>3253<0>1485<0>2960<0>2020<0>2176<0>2406<0>2181<0>2615<0>3808<0>1858<0>2154<0>2020<0>235<0>614<0>1512<0>1284<0>614<0>2548<0>618<0>321<0>2181<0>614<0>4095<0>301... |
Because not only had he been able to trust Agrippa to win the battle, | <0>2274<0>546<0>2070<0>1526<0>2151<0>3695<0>4008<0>3287<0>1318<0>2975<0>1532<0>1671<0>1394<0>2400<0>2092<0>2020<0>1919<0>69<0>1370<0>321<0>73<0>3125<0>1219<0>321<0>1649<0>2176<0>2092<0>614<0>1394<0>3626<0>2566<0>2648<0>2697<0>2548<0>1538<0>3017<1>2621<1>4003<1>512<1>3436<1>764<1>2254<1>754<1>2751<1>211<1>2358<1>2266<1>... |
The next great battle, if such a thing occurred, would be fraught with danger for the regime. | <0>2566<0>4072<0>1204<0>4028<0>2972<0>2020<0>189<0>2566<0>89<0>321<0>2548<0>2754<0>2239<0>3726<0>2395<0>63<0>1370<0>1997<0>2020<0>1396<0>3918<0>2866<0>2756<0>1370<0>1370<0>614<0>3237<0>3726<0>3726<0>3918<0>1277<0>3075<0>1578<0>507<0>3962<0>3579<0>1222<0>4058<0>962<0>3574<0>1394<0>633<0>2176<0>2054<0>2675<0>3918<0>2464<... |
Defeat would mean a loss of legitimacy, while victory would mean a new rival for power. | <0>2182<0>548<0>2454<0>2588<0>1671<0>2176<0>3918<0>2408<0>3786<0>2138<0>321<0>1736<0>4044<0>2020<0>2020<0>234<0>442<0>1394<0>3918<0>724<0>2903<0>979<0>648<0>1989<0>3237<0>1108<0>4037<0>443<0>321<0>2339<0>3253<0>277<0>3147<0>2595<0>235<0>979<0>3003<0>515<0>1219<0>1442<0>1671<0>1394<0>979<0>3670<0>756<0>1512<0>1289<0>321... |
But that did not mean Augustus was going to simply cash in his chips or linger too long over the death of his friend. | <0>2274<0>2543<0>2070<0>3713<0>1206<0>2070<0>898<0>546<0>3287<0>3297<0>2794<0>1736<0>3665<0>135<0>2016<0>3224<0>2006<0>2181<0>1394<0>73<0>2092<0>724<0>2406<0>1105<0>2974<0>628<0>3458<0>633<0>135<0>2406<0>917<0>192<0>2511<0>2406<0>234<0>2239<0>1541<0>287<0>3786<0>2181<0>2949<0>4072<0>1284<0>2034<0>1122<0>668<0>2176<0>37... |
After escorting Agrippa's body back to Rome, Augustus placed the remains in his own recently constructed mausoleum, so at least in death the two friends would be reunited. | <0>2286<0>1007<0>2151<0>2070<0>208<0>3982<0>253<0>941<0>1987<0>3786<0>2339<0>1114<0>3386<0>321<0>1820<0>3111<0>3786<0>2619<0>349<0>2339<0>3786<0>774<0>614<0>3918<0>3803<0>1376<0>3466<0>1819<0>1064<0>3834<0>389<0>135<0>2105<0>3786<0>309<0>2030<0>2649<0>2020<0>3888<0>724<0>3491<0>2566<0>1236<0>635<0>1512<0>2020<0>3786<0>... |
But when he closed the doors on the tomb, it was time to move on. | <0>998<0>2510<0>277<0>3353<0>1370<0>2176<0>2020<0>3729<0>234<0>321<0>3982<0>277<0>2020<0>724<0>1919<0>4072<0>633<0>614<0>3918<0>1376<0>3237<0>3237<0>2949<0>1118<0>367<0>1734<0>2181<0>2675<0>724<0>614<0>2176<0>1648<0>1488<0>614<0>2566<0>602<1>1853<1>2500<1>291<1>1468<1>2787<1>242<1>395<1>951<1>1291<1>2326<1>4025<1>3080<... |
He mulled over but then dismissed the idea of marrying her to an ally outside the family. | <0>1785<0>1835<0>492<0>4008<0>1441<0>3840<0>507<0>507<0>2020<0>2178<0>614<0>3840<0>309<0>648<0>309<0>2030<0>1277<0>4072<0>3904<0>3609<0>700<0>1820<0>2400<0>2100<0>633<0>234<0>2987<0>614<0>1442<0>324<0>506<0>4010<0>1797<0>3243<0>1738<0>2176<0>2176<0>3528<0>3203<0>774<0>321<0>321<0>3977<0>321<0>614<0>5<0>321<0>2178<0>63<... |
No, Augustus wanted to keep everything in a nice tight little bundle. So he settled on marrying her to Tiberius. | <0>3726<0>1394<0>4072<0>2176<0>614<0>3973<0>3658<0>3018<0>1734<0>2176<0>3591<0>3840<0>226<0>2152<0>1488<0>2312<0>135<0>3697<0>1074<0>2185<0>1748<0>1488<0>2176<0>3305<0>2665<0>2092<0>1284<0>3918<0>633<0>2181<0>1394<0>3904<0>1098<0>374<0>1969<0>3726<0>2020<0>1512<0>2665<0>3726<0>2178<0>1168<0>614<0>3726<0>1989<0>3237<0>3... |
The only problem was that Tiberius was happily married to Vipsonium, and he had no desire to marry the woman who had so recently been his stepmother-in-law. | <0>2405<0>2070<0>2070<0>998<0>3151<0>1192<0>321<0>2339<0>3918<0>234<0>955<0>2867<0>562<0>3904<0>309<0>300<0>1174<0>234<0>3999<0>807<0>1011<0>63<0>2020<0>2966<0>628<0>321<0>2020<0>1394<0>2092<0>321<0>3389<0>3626<0>234<0>234<0>2406<0>2741<0>253<0>321<0>235<0>633<0>614<0>290<0>1989<0>2700<0>955<0>741<0>3466<0>4072<0>1526<... |
He and Vitsonium had already produced a healthy son named Nero Claudius Jerusus named unusually after his uncle rather than Tiberius himself as was the custom. | <0>3041<0>3585<0>3194<0>1671<0>2020<0>2903<0>253<0>321<0>309<0>1394<0>1688<0>948<0>3510<0>628<0>3982<0>253<0>289<0>1649<0>2176<0>3808<0>277<0>73<0>2006<0>2580<0>321<0>68<0>2100<0>2404<0>73<0>2020<0>2020<0>2566<0>3237<0>3179<0>1376<0>1394<0>2960<0>2960<0>3574<0>492<0>321<0>1819<0>2551<0>1488<0>321<0>1512<0>1394<0>3364<0... |
But when Augustus made up his mind, he made up everybody's mind. | <0>359<0>2541<0>3185<0>546<0>3834<0>562<0>1427<0>805<0>2020<0>309<0>3253<0>234<0>3904<0>614<0>614<0>724<0>3140<0>3803<0>3237<0>2719<0>793<0>633<0>1679<0>3675<0>614<0>1071<0>2018<0>243<0>1284<0>3918<0>998<0>1502<0>785<0>614<0>2054<0>819<0>290<0>2669<0>3981<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>3981<1... |
Tiberius was forced to divorce Vipsania and marry Julia. | <0>2105<0>3834<0>1512<0>3834<0>277<0>73<0>2176<0>2404<0>3029<0>2752<0>300<0>589<0>4073<0>1219<0>1219<0>321<0>3841<0>1667<0>3918<0>1919<0>2338<0>321<0>1762<0>1966<0>234<0>3237<0>3237<0>2566<0>724<0>324<0>1289<0>3918<0>365<0>2887<0>1671<0>2566<0>756<0>3122<0>1748<0>4058<0>3981<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>... |
The bitterness over the incident grew slowly in Tiberius, sparked at first simply by his longing for Vipsania, but then nursed into a full blown fiery rage when he really got to know his new wife. | <0>2239<0>1118<0>2151<0>2196<0>3146<0>1685<0>226<0>321<0>774<0>1168<0>700<0>724<0>2020<0>633<0>2675<0>3726<0>3726<0>614<0>1007<0>584<0>2454<0>2794<0>2176<0>4010<0>2511<0>2400<0>1671<0>1288<0>3536<0>3973<0>107<0>235<0>3932<0>2105<0>2105<0>3237<0>2182<0>3237<0>3237<0>3881<0>2018<0>1715<0>3489<0>321<0>3477<0>538<0>2338<0>... |
The problem was that the two were simply not compatible. | <0>2921<0>1117<0>1480<0>2510<0>2541<0>3135<0>2649<0>2339<0>2020<0>805<0>3973<0>3237<0>2018<0>1056<0>1388<0>2543<0>182<0>3235<0>782<0>774<0>321<0>3062<0>3834<0>614<0>2511<0>1394<0>321<0>771<0>524<0>3918<0>3101<0>2211<0>1902<0>1370<0>3786<0>877<0>1108<0>602<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0... |
Tiberius was conservative, thoughtful, and at times an admittedly humorless man. | <0>3309<0>901<0>2581<0>3963<0>1901<0>1987<0>805<0>2176<0>805<0>1098<0>1579<0>2713<0>254<0>2181<0>321<0>3918<0>229<0>2535<0>1989<0>3466<0>3253<0>1486<0>1935<0>1370<0>3151<0>2338<0>68<0>1834<0>1989<0>2239<0>530<0>3014<0>2070<0>3287<0>3438<0>2642<0>1488<0>2181<0>941<0>648<0>349<0>933<0>4072<0>3606<0>1277<0>4072<0>3876<0>3... |
He was smart, talented and ambitious, but embraced none of the flamboyance that had come to Mark Julia's personality. | <0>3726<0>1173<0>2176<0>2413<0>616<0>2096<0>651<0>321<0>3786<0>2018<0>3726<0>1108<0>3910<0>2531<0>1370<0>724<0>127<0>1394<0>1396<0>1394<0>324<0>1376<0>4072<0>3291<0>2400<0>805<0>349<0>3237<0>3726<0>2370<0>2159<0>1612<0>4058<0>807<0>2615<0>321<0>1780<0>2978<0>90<0>3253<0>4010<0>2339<0>2020<0>1192<0>1219<0>2975<0>3918<0>... |
As the only daughter of Augustus, Julia had been raised in a pampered world of wealth and privilege. | <0>1683<0>277<0>546<0>3150<0>3287<0>546<0>1820<0>3701<0>2020<0>2339<0>1442<0>3688<0>2181<0>2176<0>326<0>3626<0>3117<0>234<0>3237<0>3237<0>3237<0>2729<0>368<0>2070<0>3758<0>3642<0>3287<0>3123<0>1168<0>1488<0>1901<0>1754<0>317<0>2116<0>724<0>1989<0>3073<0>3574<0>614<0>2176<0>614<0>2092<0>68<0>3786<0>1289<0>2511<0>2566<0>... |
But now that she was grown up, she was not daddy's little girl anymore. She was now simply a pawn in her father's dynastic games. | <0>2866<0>3849<0>2956<0>492<0>686<0>3062<0>1277<0>2016<0>3165<0>628<0>321<0>445<0>1118<0>2700<0>3123<0>3466<0>1614<0>408<0>3253<0>1118<0>2020<0>321<0>3973<0>135<0>3061<0>277<0>1655<0>2339<0>3786<0>1074<0>2006<0>321<0>3962<0>443<0>2395<0>3918<0>2092<0>68<0>1488<0>614<0>290<0>3237<0>3237<0>3237<0>2729<0>3076<0>1671<0>805... |
Never one to consider his daughter's feelings. Augustus married her off as was politically expedient and then took her son's guys and Lucius away at the first opportunity. | <0>2023<0>807<0>2541<0>2541<0>546<0>1434<0>1394<0>3904<0>2876<0>235<0>3079<0>805<0>2406<0>321<0>618<0>2176<0>491<0>1747<0>1394<0>614<0>3243<0>551<0>2663<0>3237<0>4036<0>2176<0>3955<0>1370<0>2857<0>135<0>648<0>1320<0>235<0>3079<0>1370<0>321<0>321<0>321<0>1973<0>1820<0>2181<0>2020<0>1512<0>2096<0>3117<0>2092<0>2020<0>196... |
In response, Julia began to act out against her father's obsession with traditional morality and proceeded to carry on affairs with Rome's leading men. | <0>1848<0>3642<0>3642<0>2152<0>2745<0>2541<0>2541<0>3135<0>326<0>1989<0>3762<0>2640<0>2640<0>3693<0>2375<0>3840<0>2581<0>3297<0>1206<0>2657<0>309<0>793<0>2551<0>628<0>43<0>2754<0>618<0>321<0>1259<0>2566<0>3609<0>649<0>5<0>1446<0>2697<0>321<0>2092<0>234<0>2663<0>2105<0>2903<0>1990<0>2087<0>3123<0>614<0>290<0>4028<0>1277... |
Essentially making a fool out of Augustus behind his moralizing back. | <0>1071<0>3179<0>484<0>3927<0>1685<0>1011<0>2947<0>4072<0>4072<0>3353<0>938<0>3918<0>978<0>1943<0>2550<0>2752<0>3786<0>2181<0>2339<0>229<0>1376<0>1943<0>2181<0>3318<0>918<0>426<0>955<0>3018<0>2339<0>2648<0>1370<0>4072<0>633<0>1782<0>3253<0>3888<0>2548<0>1289<0>614<0>793<0>3982<0>614<0>3786<0>1820<0>1820<0>3097<0>2295<0... |
Tiberius stepped into the situation and soon found himself playing the cuckold. | <0>1098<0>3185<0>3297<0>3302<0>3834<0>1097<0>73<0>2509<0>1370<0>3628<0>633<0>3224<0>1997<0>1830<0>2016<0>3572<0>2176<0>3786<0>1987<0>3921<0>2960<0>2566<0>3466<0>3803<0>135<0>446<0>3253<0>1671<0>5<0>1111<0>321<0>172<0>3918<0>2369<0>2020<0>614<0>1219<0>1575<0>1370<0>633<0>1834<0>870<0>524<0>321<0>2551<0>2548<0>2548<0>121... |
She even sent a letter to her father through an intermediary denouncing Tiberius as unworthy of her hand in marriage and beneath her. | <0>3858<0>379<0>2581<0>368<0>3297<0>3966<0>3551<0>1503<0>3786<0>2566<0>235<0>235<0>1119<0>2020<0>614<0>2020<0>998<0>321<0>321<0>3918<0>1519<0>1982<0>3918<0>3183<0>1394<0>614<0>633<0>3353<0>3353<0>1259<0>1289<0>2840<0>2725<0>2278<0>349<0>3849<0>1485<0>321<0>2020<0>4044<0>324<0>5<0>3069<0>196<0>3888<0>3918<0>3123<0>2406<... |
After their only child died in infancy, Tiberius seems to have renounced marital relations with Julia.

After Agrippa died, Tiberius inherited not just the general's widow, but also his commanded Pannonia. | <0>2541<0>2748<0>657<0>2070<0>1007<0>507<0>321<0>3840<0>234<0>774<0>2181<0>2566<0>1376<0>3762<0>3237<0>955<0>326<0>2070<0>3642<0>807<0>546<0>2848<0>2023<0>3585<0>548<0>2181<0>1901<0>1394<0>1394<0>321<0>2675<0>57<0>517<0>1278<0>1208<0>2382<0>2054<0>1488<0>4088<0>2092<0>614<0>1394<0>724<0>614<0>1376<0>2239<0>3726<0>1118<... |

And in contrast to Diperius' unhappy private life, found his own family a source of great joy. | <0>2018<0>317<0>2045<0>1370<0>321<0>909<0>1820<0>348<0>296<0>2176<0>2181<0>4007<0>235<0>1797<0>3551<0>135<0>2592<0>1370<0>3253<0>3486<0>321<0>2924<0>1639<0>2650<0>2650<0>196<0>2138<0>1222<0>1601<0>1632<0>1989<0>3237<0>1108<0>507<0>1370<0>135<0>2016<0>507<0>2020<0>724<0>2338<0>66<0>3918<0>2566<0>135<0>2876<0>2339<0>3786... |
His marriage to Antonia was a happy one and produced three children, each destined for a life in the public eye. | <0>3510<0>300<0>3663<0>1232<0>2375<0>3832<0>3135<0>3287<0>2769<0>3486<0>774<0>1394<0>2339<0>2176<0>1484<0>2466<0>488<0>2034<0>2960<0>1671<0>2548<0>3918<0>1688<0>234<0>774<0>2176<0>1370<0>648<0>277<0>277<0>73<0>3022<0>2949<0>3353<0>3584<0>2137<0>321<0>3027<0>2054<0>614<0>1989<0>3237<0>3237<0>2646<0>3183<0>1671<0>2855<0>... |
Drusus returned the compliment Tiberius had paid him by naming his own eldest son, born in either 16 or 15 BC, Nero Claudius Tiberius. | <0>2373<0>2070<0>546<0>2152<0>546<0>484<0>625<0>1370<0>1370<0>941<0>3626<0>2034<0>1370<0>1488<0>614<0>3224<0>90<0>253<0>3898<0>1671<0>990<0>1655<0>1339<0>1376<0>1568<0>2207<0>979<0>197<0>1639<0>3003<0>3237<0>3881<0>3973<0>1736<0>1126<0>4072<0>1394<0>1532<0>2775<0>235<0>2020<0>724<0>1289<0>234<0>2413<0>1935<0>1222<0>614... |
Of course, we know the boy today by the agnomen he inherited from his father, Germanicus. | <0>2548<0>1007<0>3982<0>723<0>4010<0>3825<0>3762<0>3237<0>2018<0>2499<0>546<0>2070<0>3150<0>1955<0>196<0>1488<0>774<0>90<0>3904<0>1376<0>862<0>2975<0>249<0>1989<0>2426<0>1649<0>321<0>317<0>1398<0>446<0>2181<0>2960<0>3918<0>724<0>1394<0>1394<0>1394<0>1394<0>748<0>3888<0>321<0>2960<0>4028<0>771<0>3918<0>3609<0>504<0>1648... |

Obviously the Romans were not much for unique naming. So from here on out, I'll be referring to them as Germanicus, Lovilla, and Claudius respectively. | <0>998<0>2510<0>546<0>2152<0>2775<0>1394<0>774<0>1901<0>321<0>3918<0>805<0>1370<0>3328<0>235<0>321<0>3918<0>724<0>2646<0>1219<0>2498<0>3670<0>3024<0>2960<0>1376<0>3123<0>2065<0>633<0>2960<0>1277<0>2018<0>1989<0>725<0>725<0>2899<0>918<0>3235<0>2949<0>2898<0>3486<0>65<0>2541<0>1846<0>3449<0>774<0>1734<0>2700<0>2239<0>120... |
Drusus, unlike his sad sack and socially awkward older brother, was outgoing and universally popular. | <0>2182<0>305<0>3123<0>1503<0>2181<0>73<0>2020<0>805<0>2182<0>2239<0>443<0>4072<0>2181<0>277<0>3186<0>3904<0>254<0>1419<0>1820<0>2020<0>3802<0>2095<0>3069<0>3882<0>1277<0>5<0>2592<0>2176<0>2467<0>3626<0>287<0>321<0>321<0>443<0>2178<0>1648<0>614<0>614<0>2020<0>321<0>3918<0>1649<0>2018<0>3237<0>3726<0>3726<0>2176<0>2474<... |
Antonia herself soon joined the auspicious ranks of Cornelia Africana, mother of the Gracchi brothers, and her own mother Octavia as a near deified paragon of womanly virtue. | <0>962<0>277<0>2087<0>321<0>4072<0>4072<0>1442<0>277<0>1355<0>2796<0>321<0>327<0>2239<0>704<0>2293<0>2239<0>1717<0>3642<0>3297<0>3085<0>2176<0>1512<0>1394<0>321<0>770<0>3310<0>1901<0>2032<0>2751<0>309<0>321<0>3795<0>1396<0>1960<0>234<0>998<0>3982<0>1671<0>1394<0>1394<0>2020<0>3685<0>592<0>3486<0>2338<0>1370<0>2006<0>89... |
When Jerusalem died, she refused to remarry, eventually living another five decades without ever taking a new husband, a highly unusual state of affairs. | <0>771<0>3253<0>2413<0>1370<0>300<0>3551<0>63<0>2006<0>321<0>2181<0>2116<0>2668<0>492<0>1645<0>4095<0>1394<0>1671<0>1118<0>2857<0>3898<0>1671<0>2092<0>3918<0>1738<0>2991<0>1748<0>1989<0>3237<0>2018<0>2700<0>2176<0>277<0>3292<0>1512<0>1394<0>2020<0>3224<0>1394<0>3918<0>2092<0>5<0>3982<0>1902<0>2181<0>234<0>2018<0>4067<0... |
From 11 BC to 9 BC, the two stepsons of Augustus battled their way into hostile territory. | <0>934<0>1232<0>3135<0>2070<0>2151<0>2769<0>3297<0>1206<0>3118<0>3497<0>919<0>309<0>1394<0>4072<0>774<0>633<0>2960<0>2226<0>446<0>1962<0>756<0>4058<0>3726<0>3018<0>920<0>2700<0>1118<0>1355<0>277<0>300<0>2030<0>2094<0>504<0>2338<0>2176<0>2903<0>2176<0>2176<0>3629<0>1736<0>73<0>3609<0>326<0>977<0>3599<0>2987<0>2700<0>331... |
Tiberias had the easier time of it because, as I said, the tribes of Pannonia remained too disconnected to really prove a match for the legions. But Germania was a different story. | <0>2096<0>2070<0>546<0>2410<0>901<0>3832<0>2070<0>2207<0>3088<0>3353<0>78<0>1378<0>2299<0>5<0>54<0>4072<0>3918<0>3918<0>3224<0>2700<0>3726<0>3808<0>3438<0>3750<0>4010<0>383<0>3626<0>2665<0>774<0>2176<0>292<0>4044<0>2876<0>4072<0>3626<0>1376<0>3237<0>1376<0>2566<0>2176<0>2453<0>321<0>253<0>73<0>234<0>866<0>1394<0>724<0>... |
The tribes there were larger, tougher, and more strategically advanced than the natives in Pannonia. | <0>2566<0>805<0>300<0>3244<0>2196<0>73<0>309<0>2181<0>2339<0>2020<0>3888<0>3962<0>321<0>2176<0>2505<0>207<0>1989<0>3237<0>349<0>2303<0>321<0>2338<0>2176<0>998<0>3237<0>3466<0>116<0>1671<0>3384<0>2804<0>4059<0>2176<0>2663<0>2506<0>1394<0>1394<0>5<0>4072<0>1394<0>1259<0>3108<0>633<0>5<0>3726<0>3123<0>3626<0>3153<0>2973<0... |
Drusus was able to eventually push his armies all the way to the Elbe. | <0>538<0>2070<0>3935<0>1715<0>2543<0>4072<0>309<0>942<0>2020<0>2176<0>2176<0>2176<0>4072<0>135<0>3224<0>290<0>1734<0>2176<0>408<0>317<0>4010<0>321<0>3243<0>73<0>3985<0>1488<0>3982<0>2020<0>3786<0>633<0>2566<0>2100<0>349<0>1370<0>1648<0>2548<0>2535<0>602<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>3... |
But every winter, he was forced to withdraw back to safety of golf. | <0>390<0>2151<0>2028<0>507<0>3253<0>2092<0>1296<0>2505<0>1738<0>1989<0>3237<0>3237<0>1671<0>3253<0>2404<0>3982<0>562<0>2369<0>2339<0>229<0>1278<0>1935<0>3962<0>321<0>998<0>3061<0>1804<0>1172<0>3466<0>135<0>1962<0>979<0>493<0>1508<0>2960<0>1219<0>1973<0>321<0>3962<0>2548<0>602<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0>2068<0... |
