Season 2, Episode 33. Ancient Rome's military machine was legend, taking over lands far outside its capital. But there were always those who fought back against the Empire, giving everything they had for freedom. A few of them even happened to be women. We're about to go on an adventure with two of them: Boudicca and Zenobia. They're from vastly different places and eras, but they have something in common: they both went up against the Romans, and for a while, they WON. The song "Hidden Past" comes courtesy of Kevin MacLeod. For a transcript, images, research notes, full music credits, and more, go to my website.
