Panoramic view of rice fields in the province of Vercelli, eastern Piedmont, with the Po in the foreground, the major river that runs right across the broad flat land above the northern slopes of the Tusco-Emilia Apennines. Gallia Cisalpina – ‘Gaul-this-side-of-the-Alps’ – was the gateway to Italy proper and a region that was always of great value precisely for its economic wealth and as a recruiting ground for legionaries. Furthermore, it lay across the consular routes to the north and west, where the confirmed Caesarians Lepidus, Plancus, and Pollio held the provinces in Gaul and Hispania with their seasoned legions.
