How Spartacus, Crixius, and the army with slaves and poor peasants could have taken Rome?
I suppose we'll need the defeat of Crassus, or maybe his death earlier during the proscription period (because he would be on a list, or killed by someone he would have disnounced).

And after? Spartacus and Crixus probably didn't wanted, or even imagined, to put an end to slavery; but the victory of this servile and poor army would likely change something to the social situation.

By exemple, the Romans changed somewhat their attitude toward their slaves after the Servile Wars, maybe they could became too afraid to use slavery on a large scale?
Maybe the poor classes of Roman Republic (proletarii, humiliores) would benefit from the slaves and poor italians victory, in sort of Gracchi's inspired schema?
