Agricola, Roman governor of Brittania finally brings the last stronghold of the Druids under Roman control.

Back in 60 AD, Paulinus, unable to complete the conquering of the island of Anglesey due Boudica's revolt and the Iceni burning Londinium to the ground, Agricola finally gains control of the island.

When asked for a statement, he said the first order of business would be to build a proper Roman road to the town of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrnrobwllllantrysiliogogogoch*.

*This is a troll, that's the town's actual name.

Todays report on arts and literature: Josephus completes his work Jewish Antiquities in twenty volumes. A master work translating Jewish history from the beginning through the first Roman-Jewish war. The books are in Greek, designed to help gentiles understand the Jewish people.

Rome's response: "Yeah? So?" And then they go straight on to persecuting the Jews harder than before.
