Roman: Praetorian Defending Pilum – Gold

The Praetorian Guard has been vilified and lorded by historians, one thing is right, they were a hotbed of political repression and intrigue. It is difficult to think of a modern analogy. Possibly Saddam’s Republican Guard, NKVD and we often hear WW2 German SS.  They certainly had the same basic role, the leader’s personal army, rather than the army of the state.
