The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was fought by the Roman army of Julius Caesar against a confederation of Gallic tribes united under the leadership of Vercingetorix of the Arverni.
- It was the last major engagement between Gauls and Romans, and is considered one of Caesar's greatest military achievements and a classic example of siege warfare and investment, the Roman army built dual lines of fortifications, an inner wall to keep the besieged Gauls in, and an outer wall to keep the Gallic relief force out.
- The Battle of Alesia marked the end of Gallic independence in the modern day territory of France and Belgium.
