Battle of Pharsalus: Considered the decisive battle in the first Civil War
Caesar Crosses the Rubicon: Caesar led the 13th Twin Legion south over the Rubicon River from Cisalpine Gaul to Italy to make his way to Rome. By doing this, he intentionally brakes the law on imperium and makes armed conflict unavoidable. 1/10/49 BC
Caesar Elected as Consul
Lex Vatinia: Legislation which granted Caesar governorship of the provinces of Cisalpine Gaul and Illyricum for five years
Caesar's Tenure from Lex Vatinia is due to end
Lex Pompeia-Licinia: Extends Caesar's governorship 5 years. (Whether this meant 5 years after the original tenure or 5 years after this decree is still hotly debated)
Pompey's 4th wife and Julius Caesar's only child from marriage, Julia, dies in childbirth. The kid dies a few days later. Some scholars consider this a breaking point in Julius Caesar and Pompey's relationship
Crassius Dies in the Battle of Carrhae: His death ended the First Triumvarate and allowed Caesar and Pompey to more freely show their dissatisfaction with another
Senate Demands Caesar and Pompey Each Give a Legion to Defend Syria: Pompey claims that a legion he loaned Caesar previously was his contribution.
