The Praetorian Guard: Rome's Deep State?

Few historical institutions have so dramatically revised their purpose as the Roman Empire's Praetorian Guard. The Guard was formally established as an imperial bodyguard by the first emperor, Augustus. And within a hundred years, the Guard would kill a sitting emperor -- and it was not to be the last time. Later emperors all knew that their safety depended upon keeping the Guard happy. So who, then, really ran Rome? And is there any overlap between the shadow government of the Praetorians and the modern concept of a "deep state"? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you like Roman political intrigue and conspiracy, you'll like these videos: Were Roman Elections Fair?:    • Would Roman Elections Pass a U.N. Inspection?   How Greed Destroyed the Roman Republic:    • How Greed Destroyed the Roman Republic   How Pontius Pilate Became the Most Famous Roman Ever:    • How Pontius Pilate Became the Most Famous ...   Support us on Amazon: http://bit.ly/3Ivg9ZX 🔔 Subscribe here:    / @tribunatespqr   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Branding and design by Kate Hillstead: katehillstead.com Host sculpture portraits by Daisydewdles: instagram.com/daisydewdles #history #rome #spqr #ancienthistory #documentary #roman #romanempire #ancientrome #praetorian #military #republic #republican #democrat #tyranny #democratic #democracy #roma #roman #militaryhistory #praetorianguard #politics
