    Ah. Just Hadrian, Tiberius and Septimius Severus then.

    Third Jewish-Roman War

    Something something apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system, and public health … what have the Romans ever done for us?

    They really did rebel a whole lot in Iudaea.

      It’s ‘funny’ - the province was relatively quiet, despite the extreme religious/cultural differences, for some 70 years, and then a little butchery of Hellenized Jews by Jewish radicals and the place becomes a hotbed of rebellion.
