In this episode of Fexingo History, Lucas and Luna explore the military and diplomatic crisis that defined Nero's early reign: the war with Parthia over Armenia. They focus on the pivotal Battle of Rhandeia in 62 AD, where Roman legions under Lucius Caesennius Paetus suffered a humiliating defeat. Lucas explains the strategic context, the clash between two great empires, and how Nero's general Corbulo salvaged a peace that held for fifty years. They also discuss the role of the client king Aristobulus of Armenia Minor and the Parthian general Monaeses. This episode fills a gap in the series, offering a detailed look at a turning point that shaped Nero's reputation as a military leader.
