I once read somewhere that if Julius Caesar was not assasinated, he would have invaded the Parthian Empire, to avenge the Roman defeat there at Carrhae under Crassus. But then, it also said that he planned to march north from Parthia and invade Scythia, then invade Germania from the east!! How accurate is this claim, and could the Romans under Caesar acheive this seemingly impossible task? Personally I think that if anyone could do it, it will be him, but I am not sure about whether the political situation at Rome will remain stable enough for this to happen.

What do you guys think? Could he have done this? And, what would be the maximum amount of land that he could have conquered plausibly in your opinion?

And this is my first official thread, so please tell me when I'm doing something wrong.:)
