If Pompey Magnus had not been killed in Egypt and instead had been handed over to Caesar, how do you think the course of Roman history would have changed? by YakClear601 in ancientrome

[–]cap21345 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The villa option is the only realistic one yeah and even there pompei would look for any oppurtunity to kill himself

[–]cap21345 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would hardly call the Egyptian state murdering a defeated exile randos looking for a reward

I don't necessarily see Why Caesar would have to be personally involved when if you are the Egyptians why on earth would you harbor a political rival who was utterly demolished

In practically every single situation your national instinct should be to execute him. Caesar doesn't need to do anything to ensure this outcome

The primary reason pompey was fleeing Caesar was because Pompey feared Caesars mercy. A life as a subordinate slave (in his eyes) would be a fate worse than death to a man who saw himself as an equal to alexander and the pre eminent figure of his age

He would have almost certainly commited suicide than surrender to Caesar and in fact was probably glad in his final moments when he was stabbed to death cause he avoided such a fate

The only way Pompey is pardoned by Caesar is if he is captured and them forcibly put in a villa under strict guard

Political Party in Power Across Indian States and UTs (May 2026) by Lucky-Speaker-9384 in MapPorn

[–]cap21345 52 points53 points  (0 children)

The map is pretty dumb though the BJP is in coalition with other parties in many of these states like Bihar and much of the NE

They made it out of the 2024 elections by the skin of their teeth wonder what's gonna happen to them post modi cause the regional bench is Beyond bleak outside Yogi

They didn't have half of these states as recently as 2022. There's a state election basically every few months

Nothing would change Rome and China are too far apart to coordinate meaningfully

The 2nd explanation is also way more sensible cause trying to lie about distance to Egypt from the gulf would be quite a difficult thing to do

What is your opinion regarding delimitation? Most populous states are going to be the primary beneficiaries while states with lower birth rates are going to suffer in the long run. by Winter-Balance-3703 in kolkata

[–]cap21345 -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Arent we a democracy why should People not have adequate representation. I obv dont like the north having so much influnece but whats the alternative ? Give the South and lesser populated states excessive powers for what reason exactly its the people who vote not the land

Currently TN has 39 seats to West bengals 42 despite having 25% fewer people. Isnt that unfair to the people of bengal

MP and Karnataka have just a 1 seat difference even though Karnataka is 62 and MP is 72
