Julius Ceasar crosses the Rubicon

January 10, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

On January 10, 49 BC, Julius Ceasar crossed the Rubicon, thought to be the start of a civil war.

The Rubicon is a shallow river that runs from the Apennine Mountains east to the Adriatic Sea. Modern flood control, developed over centuries, has erased the Rubicon from the landscape, and as it ran through shallow flood plains, its course changed often prior to man-made flood control. Ruby or red was the root of the name, so the river was thought to be muddy with a reddish tint.

Ceasar was returning from military campaigns in the north, and the Rubicon ran a little north of San Marino and Pesaro. Pompey had been appointed sole consul, and Ceasar wanted to be the leader of Rome. The Senate feared Ceasar and had sent word to him to disband his army and stop campaigning. Pompey even accused Ceasar of insubordination and treason.

Ceasar defied the Senate and Pompey and marched on Rome, even though he was told that if he brought his army south of the Rubicon, Senate armies would meet him and kill him. Many Roman citizens though saw Ceasar as a hero and Mark Antony was also one of his supporters. As Ceasar approached Rome with a single legion, the Senate and Pompey cowered southward with two legions.

During subsequent years, Ceasar battled Pompey’s legions with mixed results. Pompey never pressed his victories, while Ceasar would not relent. At one point Ceasar drove Pompey to Egypt where one of Ptolemy’s lieutenants murdered Pompey. Later, Ceasar went against Ptolemy, installing Cleopatra as ruler and they had a son, Ptolemy XV Ceasar.

Ceasar returned to Rome, and by 47 BC had complete control. He cleverly reformed legions and continued to conquer foreign lands, but what he really wanted was for the Roman Senate to make him permanent dictator, a notion entirely counter to Roman tradition. Nonetheless, by 44 AD he had achieved such, the same year in which he was later to be assassinated.

Atlanta Moving Services

January 2, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

After providing moving services for Atlanta customers for more than three decades, Mark the Mover has gained notoriety as a dependable moving company for household relocation. If you have bought a new home in Atlanta, Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Duluth Georgia or Roswell Ga, or anywhere around the greater Atlanta area, Mark the Mover is an established name for moving and storage in and around Atlanta.

We provide moving, packing and household storage. You can ask your friends and neighbors about reliable moving companies, and chances are you will hear about Mark the Mover as we have moved thousands of Atlanta homes in 30 plus years of Atlanta moving services. But our new customers are also using Kudzu.com and Yelp to learn more about Mark the Mover.

With dozens of reviews from happy customers, you can be assured that Mark the Mover strives to remove your stress on moving day. Our reviews are real customers, while some other companies desperate for business may be putting fake reviews on the internet, or bribing customers for good reviews, at Mark the Mover we do not. Never have. Nor do we spend an exorbitant amount on advertising. Other moving companies need to charge higher prices or deliver less service because they can’t rely on the word of mouth that accounts for a great deal of our business at Mark the Mover.

In fact, around half of the moving engagements served by Mark the Mover are from repeat customers, and people referred by former customers. That is an amazing number of people that heard about Mark the Mover even before checking our reviews online. At this very moment as we look at our last 20 moves, five were repeat customers and six more were referrals. Another five prospects saw Mark the Mover on google and decided to give us a try.

Thanks to everyone that has ever used Mark the Mover, and especially thanks to those that left comments at Kudzu.com and Yelp, as we are sure that internet karma will be coming your way.
