Though a fictionalized account, the Starz historical drama Spartacusdoes tell of a real historical event called The Third Servile War. The series starts with a background on the titular character Spartacus, who actually doesn’t gain that name until later on. At first, he’s unnamed, a Thracian who leads a mutiny against the Roman officer leading the...
As mentioned, the Spartacus series franchise had multiple seasons, each with its own subheading. Spartacus: Gods of the Arena is the second season but unlike those that came after it, it serves as the prequel to Blood and Sand. In it, we learn a little bit more about the city of Capua, where Spartacus was later transported to for the gladiator batt...

Now, this is a series that I would definitely binge-watch were it ever to be remade – though it would be pretty hard to step out of the successful shadow of this original! I, Claudiusis an adaptation of two historical novels written by Robert Graves: the titular I, Claudius, and its sequel, Claudius the God. The events recounted in it are still chr...

We’re keeping the comedic vibes going (albeit taking it waaaay back in time) with Up Pompeii!, a British comedy series that aired at the dawn of the 70s. The story of Pompeii and the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius is one of the more well-known events in the history of Ancient Rome, and it serves as one of the comedic backbones of this series. Up Pompeii!...

So far, all of the shows we’ve listed are told from the viewpoint of the Romans – if not from a Roman protagonist then at the very least set primarily against the backdrop of that civilization. Well, Britannia– if you couldn’t tell from the title alone alluding to a different place entirely – provides a slight change of pace. Yes, the show is set d...
Similarly, Barbariansis a thrilling historical drama series that focuses on the perspectives of those on the other side of the battlefield. Produced by Netflix, the show delves into the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, the epic clash between the Roman Empire and the Germanic tribes in the 1st century AD that humiliated the Roman army. The series tel...
In many ways, The Caesars steps within the same historical boundaries as I, Claudius, which we mentioned a little earlier in this list. In fact, the timeline is the same; each episode in this ITV miniseries details the reign of one emperor of the Roman Empire, beginning with Augustus after the fall of Julius Caesar and ending with Claudius. Given t...
