To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Arverni had, as we have seen, been in conflict with Rome, and had been partially subdued ; with the Sequani the Romans had had no direct dealings of importance. But the jEdui, as lying between these two formidable peoples, and because they could be successfully played off against the beaten but dan- gerous Arverni, had been taken into a close alliance and " friendship," and, backed by Roman influence, had attained a power beyond their natural strength, and claimed now to be the leading stat...e in Gaul. The result was just what might have been ex- pected. The Arverni, ever jealous of the yEdui, allied with the Sequani to crush them, and called in the aid of a German tribe, the Suebi, which, under its energetic chief Ariovistus, had already crossed the Rhine, and was seeking a settlement to the southward. If the Roman government had been as energetic as the German chief, they would have succoured their clients the ^Edui, and either declared war on Ariovistus, or at least strengthened their own defences in that direction.
