Marco Licinio Craso

politician Italy

Marco Licinio Craso was a prominent Roman general and politician known for amassing immense wealth through shrewd and often unscrupulous business practices during the late Roman Republic. He famously claimed that true wealth was defined by one's ability to maintain a personal army, and he leveraged the turmoil of civil wars to acquire properties at rock-bottom prices. His reputation was marked by both his extraordinary riches and his involvement in the formation of the First Triumvirate alongside Julius Caesar and Pompey. However, his insatiable ambition ultimately led to his downfall during a disastrous military campaign against the Parthians, cementing his legacy as a figure of both great success and monumental failure.
