Commentaries on the Gallic War (De Bello Gallico) is Julius Caesar's firsthand account of his campaigns in Gaul from 58 to 50 BCE. Written in a clear, direct style-and notably in the third person-it describes how he subdued various Gallic tribes, navigated shifting alliances, and responded to uprisings, most famously the revolt led by Vercingetorix. Caesar also recounts expeditions beyond Gaul, including his brief invasions of Britain and his conflicts with Germanic tribes across the Rhine. The work functions not only as military history but also as political propaganda, portraying Caesar as a decisive, just, and strategically brilliant commander while legitimizing his expanding power in Rome.
