Julius Caesar: The Making of a Dictator
Conference of Luca
Caesar engineered an alliance with Rome’s two most powerful men, Pompey and Crassus. This "triumvirate" won Caesar the consulship, and his chance to conquer Gaul. But now their grip on Rome is faltering, and Caesar calls the two men to an urgent meeting in the north of Italy. He needs to retrench the alliance, to ensure he can continue his conquest of Gaul.
